Who Should I Start? Sterling Shepard or Isaac TeSlaa

Wednesday, November 19, 9:14 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard (shoulder) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Shepard will join fellow wideouts Chris Godwin (leg) and Emeka Egbuka (illness) on the injury report to begin the week. Shepard appears to be dealing with a minor shoulder injury, but it shouldn't stop him from suiting up in Week 12. His fantasy value is likely dependent on whether or not Godwin is able to return this weekend. Last week, Shepard hauled in four of his five targets for 54 yards in the loss to the Buffalo Bills. The veteran wideout would take a backseat in the passing game if Godwin and Egbuka are both healthy.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa (oblique) is officially active for Sunday's Week 12 contest against the New York Giants. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. The rookie has merely occupied a depth role in his first pro season, catching four of his eight targets for 65 yards and two touchdowns through 10 games. Not only has TeSlaa been operating behind standout receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, but he's also been far less involved than Kalif Raymond. As long as those three pass catchers remain healthy, TeSlaa can be avoided in fantasy football. He should be stashed in dynasty leagues and left on waivers in redraft formats.
