Who Should I Start? Romeo Doubs or Alec Pierce

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs scored on his only look from quarterback Malik Willis in the Packers' 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks in their final preseason game. The Packers' wide receiver room has been decimated by injuries during the preseason, but it was a bit of an eye-opener to see Doubs, who has run the most routes for the Packers over the last two seasons, play the first two series of the game. Doubs scored on a one-yard snag from starting quarterback Malik Willis, and Doubs' day was over after that. The Packers can now rest up for their Week 1 home opener against the Detroit Lions. For fantasy purposes, Doubs is more of a late-round fantasy wide receiver with capped production upside, but he should be on the field quite a bit.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (groin) returned to training camp practice on Tuesday, according to Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan. Pierce initially suffered his groin injury in practice on Aug. 10 and then proceeded to miss the team's second preseason game last Saturday. The 25-year-old will probably be held out of th preseason finale this week as well, but the fact that he's back at practice this week means he should be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Sunday, Sept. 7, against the Miami Dolphins. Not only does Pierce have an uphill battle for consistent playing time in Indy's crowded receiving corps, but he's probably also the only one of Michael Pittman Jr., Josh Downs and Adonai Mitchell that doesn't benefit from Daniel Jones being named the team's starting quarterback. Pierce is currently ranked as the WR70 in fantasy at RotoBaller.
