Who Should I Start? Parker Washington or Isaiah Bond

Wednesday, November 5, 9:29 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington led the Jaguars in targets and receptions in Week 9 against the Las Vegas Raiders. He hauled in eight of his nine receptions for 90 yards, with a very solid 26 percent target share. Travis Hunter (knee) is out for another three games minimum, Brenton Strange (hip, quadriceps) is sidelined, and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) is struggling in 2025 and rolled his ankle late in the game on Sunday, and is questionable heading into Week 10. The Jaguars traded for Jakobi Meyers on Tuesday; however, Washington should still receive a majority of the looks on Sunday against the Houston Texans while Meyers adjusts to the new offense. The unfortunate news is that the Texans are a tough matchup, allowing the fourth fewest points to opposing wide receivers. Derek Stingley Jr. is also one of the top cornerbacks in the game, so it might be tough sledding for the Jaguar pass catcher he guards on Sunday. That said, the targets should be there for Washington, as he's now seen 19 over his last two games, making him a flex option in Week 10 and a must-add off the waiver wire.

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Isaiah Bond (foot) will miss Sunday's game against the Jets with a foot injury sustained in the team's Week 8 loss to the Patriots. Following a Week 9 bye, Bond has yet to return to practice and was ruled out of action on Friday. Since accumulating a season-high 58 yards on three catches in Week 4, Bond has made only four catches over his past four games and has been blanked from the stat sheet in the last two. Anyone still holding onto him in redraft leagues can drop him without reservation, and a similar move needs to be at least considered in dynasty leagues, depending on available options on waivers.
