Who Should I Start? Ryan Flournoy or Pat Bryant

Monday, December 8, 12:06 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy stepped up during Thursday night's loss to the Detroit Lions after CeeDee Lamb (concussion) exited early due to a concussion. Flournoy collected a team-high nine receptions for 115 yards and a touchdown on a team-leading 13 targets. It marks the 26-year-old's second game this season with over 100 receiving yards, with the other coming back in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers when Lamb was sidelined with an ankle injury. Flournoy's ability to level up with a star teammate out of the lineup is worth paying attention to. His nine receptions and 13 targets in Week 14 are tied for the second-most in a game by a Dallas pass-catcher this season. With Lamb in the concussion protocol, his status for Week 15's game against the Minnesota Vikings is uncertain. If he can't get cleared, Flournoy would be a strong plug-and-play option in Dallas' high-volume passing attack.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant has been able to put himself on the fantasy radar over the last few weeks with increased involvement in the passing game. Bryant was a non-factor in fantasy football leagues until his five-catch performance in Week 11. After that, Bryant has finished with seven receptions for 74 yards over his last two games. The rookie wideout has been the second-best wideout lately behind Courtland Sutton. His recent performances should be enough to put Bryant on the fantasy radar as a WR4/flex option in Week 15 when the Broncos host the Green Bay Packers. Both Sutton and Troy Franklin figure to be involved as well, but Bryant has done enough to earn consideration off the waiver wire for WR depth going into the fantasy playoffs.
