Who Should I Start? Olamide Zaccheaus or Elic Ayomanor

Friday, September 12, 11:19 PM

Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus made an immediate impact in his debut under head coach Ben Johnson. He caught four of seven targets for 42 yards in the Week 1 loss to Minnesota, operating as Chicago's clear WR3. Zaccheaus played 44% of the snaps and ran a route on 59% of dropbacks, both behind only Rome Odunze and D.J. Moore. Notably, he was on the field for 87% of the snaps in one-tight end sets, cementing his defined role in the offense. Week 2 brings an appealing matchup with the Lions, who allowed the most receiving yards to wideouts in 2024. Former Bear receiver Keenan Allen shredded Detroit twice last season, averaging 23.2 half-PPR points per game against them. While Zaccheaus has a chance to stay involved, his role still caps his upside. He's a deep-league flex consideration but should remain out of lineups in most fantasy formats.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has been one of the few bright spots for this offense through four games. It has been a tough beginning to the season for the Titans offense. However, Ayomanor has been decent with 12 receptions for 151 yards and two touchdowns through four games. The rookie wideout saw seven targets last week, but only hauled in two of them for 44 yards. The Titans offense is a complete mess, but Ayomanor has good upside. He should be in the conversation as a flex option for the upcoming Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
