Who Should I Start? Phillip Dorsett or Michael Thomas

Saturday, December 30, 9:34 PM

Denver Broncos wide receivers Phillip Dorsett and Michael Bandy have been added to the active roster ahead of the Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Normally, this won't be noteworthy, but it is due to the current state of the Broncos' wideouts. Right now, Denver will be without Courtland Sutton (concussion) while Jerry Jeudy (illness) and Marvin Mims Jr. (hamstring) are questionable for this game. The fact that the Broncos added two receivers to the roster means that the team is preparing to be without both Jeudy and Mims on Sunday. Regardless, it's tough to imagine any of the Broncos receivers having fantasy value with quarterback Russell Wilson on the bench.

Wide receiver Michael Thomas (knee) is no longer under contract with the New Orleans Saints, according to a source, and is now officially a free agent. It was a formality this offseason since his deal was only really for one year. The 31-year-old was designated as a post-June 1 cut by the Saints. Thomas missed the final seven games of the 2023 season due to a knee injury and isn't likely to have a very robust market given all of the injuries he's endured since leading the NFL in receptions (149) and receiving yards (1,725) in 2019, the last year he was named to the Pro Bowl. Since then, the former second-round pick by the Saints in 2016 out of Ohio State has played in only 20 games and has caught 95 passes for 1,057 yards and four touchdowns.
