Who Should I Start? Odell Beckham Jr or Christian Kirk

Thursday, September 28, 3:18 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) is missing another practice on Thursday. Beckham suffered an ankle injury in Week 2, didn't practice at all last week and was inactive in the Week 3 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Unless he's able to get in some sort of practice on Friday, OBJ will be inactive for the second straight game this Sunday in Cleveland against his former team, the Browns. Fantasy managers that used the 30-year-old in a flex spot in the first two weeks of the season should be planning to go in another direction. With Rashod Bateman (hamstring) also yet to practice this week, rookie Zay Flowers, Nelson Agholor and Devin Duvernay could be the Ravens' starting wideouts on Sunday.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk caught four of six targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the loss to Houston on Sunday. It was the second straight week that Kirk led the Jacksonville pass-catchers in fantasy output, after being a complete non-factor in Week 1. With Zay Jones ruled out (Knee), Kirk played 86% of the WR snaps for the Jags, which was the highest on the week. Calvin Ridley was second with 82%. It's another start-worthy performance for the former Cardinal, who now has two consecutive top-25 PPR weekly finishes. Kirk is still going to be a risky play each week, especially if Jones is active, but he's proven that he still belongs in the WR3/flex category. Up next is a matchup with an Atlanta secondary that slot receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown just shredded for over 100 yards.
