Who Should I Start? Quintez Cephus or Tay Martin

Wednesday, September 18, 5:22 PM

The Los Angeles Rams have signed wide receiver Quintez Cephus to their practice squad amid injuries to their top two receivers, Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua. Cephus hasn't played in an NFL regular-season game since 2022, when he was with the Detroit Lions. The Rams' passing game struggled in Week 2 against the Cardinals, mainly after Cooper Kupp exited the game. Their current wide receiver group consists of Demarcus Robinson, Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington, and Tutu Atwell. The Rams did not place Kupp on injured reserve, indicating they expect him back within the nefew of weeks. Cephus is a depth move, and fantasy managers do not need to consider adding him to their rosters ahead of this week's matchup with the San Francisco 49ers.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Tay Martin saw a good chunk of action in the team's 17-13 loss at the Tennessee Titans on Saturday night. Martin finished with a team-leading five receptions on seven targets for 58 yards. The 26-year-old went undrafted out of Oklahoma State in 2022 and has spent the past two years on San Francisco's practice squad. The 49ers' receiving picture is a little fuzzy, with trade rumors swirling around starter Brandon Aiyuk and an injury to rookie Ricky Pearsall. However, Martin is still competing with many other receivers for a roster spot. He'll likely not be fantasy-relevant this season.
