Who Should I Start? Ryan Flournoy or Dont'e Thornton Jr.

Friday, November 21, 9:08 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy has seen his role in the passing game decrease in recent weeks. Last week, Flournoy hauled in his lone target for a two-yard touchdown in the win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Flournoy has finished with two or fewer receptions in four straight games. Sadly, there aren't enough targets to go around with CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens seeing a majority of the action. At the moment, Flournoy is just a depth option in this offense. He should be considered a touchdown-dependent option for the upcoming Week 12 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. is trying to take advantage of expanded opportunities in Week 11. Thornton only caught one pass for four yards in their Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos, but played 60% of the snaps, which ranked second on the team. With the Dallas Cowboys on the slate in Week 11, Thornton could offer big-play upside in deeper leagues and DFS formats. The Cowboys have allowed the most half-PPR fantasy points to wide receivers this season, so this could be a big week for the rookie receiver. In what should be a high-scoring affair in Week 11, look for Thornton to make an impact in Week 11.
