Who Should I Start? Sterling Shepard or Xavier Restrepo

Friday, November 14, 5:54 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard hasn't been able to find much success over the last few weeks. Over the last two games, Shepard has been held to four receptions for 28 yards. He did post a seven-catch performance in Week 7, but has been a non-factor since then. It's tough to imagine Shepard being a viable option in most fantasy formats for the upcoming Week 11 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. He's clearly not normally a big part of the passing attack, so he shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a deep league option.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Xavier Restrepo could be elevated from the practice squad this week. The undrafted free agent out of Miami has prior chemistry with Titans quarterback and No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward, generating plenty of buzz during training camp. While Restrepo initially landed on the practice squad, an injury to wideout Bryce Oliver (knee) has opened the door for him to see game action against the Indianapolis Colts. If Restrepo can translate his rapport with Ward onto the field, he could work his way into a larger role and become a name to monitor for fantasy managers later in the season.
