Who Should I Start? Russell Gage or Trent Sherfield

Sunday, August 20, 8:44 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage (knee) has officially been placed on the injured reserve on Sunday. Gage will miss the entire 2023 campaign after suffering a torn patellar tendon during Wednesday's joint practice with the New York Jets. The 27-year-old dealt with multiple injuries last season that limited him to 13 games. He finally looked healthy during training camp, but unfortunately suffered this season-ending injury. Gage will now sit out his third and final year of his contract with Tampa Bay. The Bucs already have Mike Evans and Chris Godwin locked into the first two receiver spots. However, the third wideout job is completely wide open right now. It'll be interesting to see if someone is able to set themselves apart during the final preseason game.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Trent Sherfield made the team's 53-man roster after final cutdowns earlier this week. Buffalo will open the season with Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis, Sherfield, Khalil Shakir and Deonte Harty at the receiver position. The 27-year-old should be left to the waiver wire in standard-sized fantasy leagues to begin the 2023 season, but he could become interesting in deeper leagues if he ends up operating as the team's starting slot receiver. He's on his fourth team in the last four seasons and put up career-highs in catches (30), receiving yards (417) and touchdowns (two) in 17 games (four starts) with the Miami Dolphins in 2022. Sherfield's main competition for targets will be Shakir.
