Who Should I Start? Puka Nacua or Travis Hunter

Thursday, November 6, 6:31 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (ribs) said his ribs are feeling good after practicing in full on Thursday, according to Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. It's an upgrade for Nacua, who was listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. All signs are pointing to the 24-year-old All-Pro wideout being able to play this Sunday in a big divisional battle against the San Francisco 49ers after he left the Week 9 win over the New Orleans Saints with a rib injury. The Rams have been optimistic about Nacua's status all week, and the star wideout likely would have returned to last Sunday's game if it had been close. Despite leaving early against the Saints, the former fifth-rounder still had seven catches for 95 yards and a touchdown on his eight targets. Nacua is a no-doubt, high-end WR1 in fantasy football when he's active.

Despite landing on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury that he suffered in practice last week, Jacksonville Jaguars rookie first-rounder Travis Hunter (knee) is "not expected to be out long-term," according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Hunter will be required to miss at least three more games while on IR, but he will be back this year to contribute on offense. With Hunter out and Brian Thomas Jr. coming down with an ankle sprain in the Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, the Jaguars acquired pass-catcher Jakobi Meyers from the Raiders on Tuesday. Meyers will give Jacksonville some extra receiver depth with Hunter on IR, while Parker Washington will also see an increased role in the short term. Hunter, 22, had the best game of his young career before the team's Week 8 bye, catching eight of 14 targets for 101 yards and his first NFL touchdown. All signs were pointing toward him having a bigger role on offense in the second half of the year, and fantasy managers will be hoping that's still true when he's activated off IR. Keep Hunter stashed in all fantasy football leagues.
