Who Should I Start? Quintez Cephus or Tyrie Cleveland

Wednesday, June 25, 2:37 PM

The Los Angeles Rams released veteran wide receiver Quintez Cephus on Wednesday, according to NFL.com. The former fifth-round pick by the Detroit Lions out of Wisconsin in 2020 has not appeared in an NFL game since 2022 but has spent time with the Buffalo Bills, Houston Texans, and Los Angeles Rams since being released by Detroit. Overall, the 27-year-old has 37 receptions for 568 yards and four touchdowns to his name (all with Lions). He was forced to sit out the entire 2023 campaign after violating the league's policy against gambling. Based on his career trajectory and recent developments, it would be a surprise if he's on the fantasy football radar moving forward.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland (head, neck) was carted off the field during Thursday's preseason matchup versus the Browns. Luckily, the update wasn't as bad as expected, with the wideout officially diagnosed with a concussion and sprained neck. He's expected to make a full recovery. Cleveland has appeared in 23 games during his career, all in Denver, amassing just eight catches for 91 yards. He signed with the Eagles during the offseason, but he'll need to scratch and claw to make the active roster for Week 1, assuming he's healthy by then.
