Who Should I Start? Quez Watkins or Puka Nacua

Sunday, August 3, 11:28 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Quez Watkins (undisclosed) has been placed on injured reserve. The 27-year-old left Friday's practice with an injury and did not return. Watkins, who began his career in 2020 with the Eagles, compiled a stat line of 98 receptions, 1,249 yards, and six touchdowns over four seasons, with his 2021 season being his most productive. His placement on IR is not expected to have any fantasy relevance, as he was far down the depth chart and looking to secure a roster spot on his new team. In a corresponding move, the Cardinals signed wide receiver Nate McCollum.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua continues to be a spectacular fantasy option heading into Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old has 61 catches for 711 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns this year, ranking as the overall WR4 in PPR leagues -- and he would be in the running for WR1 if he hadn't missed a game and a half in October. Nacua should continue to be deployed in all fantasy leagues, and managers shouldn't give the decision a second thought. In his last outing against the Niners, the star receiver caught 10 passes for 85 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, San Francisco has surrendered the sixth-most receptions and eighth-most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025.
