Who Should I Start? Rashod Bateman or Tutu Atwell

Saturday, December 21, 3:24 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (foot) is officially active for Saturday's divisional tilt against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Bateman popped up on the injury report on Wednesday as a non-participant but was able to upgrade to limited participation on Thursday. He carried a questionable tag into today's game but was able to clear protocol. Last weekend, Bateman brought in three of his five targets for 80 yards and two scores. Over his past eight games, he has found the end zone five times and averaged 47.6 yards per contest. Fantasy managers should expect him to continue to operate as the No.2 wide receiver alongside Zay Flowers. Bateman should be viewed as a solid flex option in 14+ team formats and a high-upside, high-risk option in DFS facing a tough Pittsburgh secondary.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell has multiple catches in three straight games coming into Thursday night's road clash with the 49ers. Against the Bills last week, he reeled in all three of his targets for 45 yards, his highest total since Week 7 against the Raiders. In his first matchup with the 49ers this season, Atwell hauled in four catches for a season-high 93 receiving yards. In that game, the Rams were without target magnets Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp, though, who get most of the targets in the current offense. Atwell could still play an increased role again this week, though, with Demarcus Robinson (shoulder) and Jordan Whittington (shoulder) both questionable. Atwell is RotoBaller's WR85.
