Who Should I Start? Saquon Barkley or Michael Wilson

Saturday, December 13, 12:30 PM

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley broke free for a 52-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter of last week's game against the Chargers, finally snapping his four-game scoreless streak. This play also boosted him to his second-highest rushing yards count in a game this season with 122, his second time surpassing 100 yards on the ground. He'll try to carry this momentum into Week 15's matchup with the Raiders, who allow the ninth-most fantasy points to RBs in the league. Las Vegas is also tied for the second-most rushing touchdowns given up this year, letting up 18 scores to runners over 13 games. While he has left some to be desired in the passing game lately, Barkley is primed to find the end zone this weekend, which should make up for any lack of catches. Consider him a low-end RB1.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson caught five of his 11 targets for 54 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 15 loss against the Houston Texans. Wilson continues to step up in the Cardinals' offense and produce good numbers with Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) sidelined. In four games without Harrison on the field, Wilson has seen double-digit targets in each game and has hauled in at least 10 catches in three of those games. Over the last five weeks, Wilson has seen the most targets in the NFL and has averaged 13.4 targets per game. As long as Harrison is sidelined, Wilson should be deployed as a strong WR1 option in fantasy football. Even when Harrison returns, Wilson is still a high-end WR3/flex with WR2 upside. Arizona will face a more favorable matchup in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons.
