Who Should I Start? Tank Dell or Brian Thomas Jr.

Monday, October 21, 9:42 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell posted a dud during Sunday's loss to the Green Bay Packers. Dell failed to haul in any of his four targets in the narrow defeat. Before that, Dell had 11 receptions for 95 yards and one touchdown over the two previous contests. After the game, quarterback C.J. Stroud acknowledged that they need to do a better job of getting Dell involved in the offense. The Texans desperately need Dell to step up with Nico Collins (hamstring) sidelined right now. The hope is that Dell bounces back after this which he should considering he does have a ton of potential. Fantasy managers should consider his bad performance as more of a fluke outing.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. caught all five of his targets for 89 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 win over the New England Patriots in London. He also added two rushing yards on two attempts. The rookie was the Jaguars' most productive pass-catcher as they recorded their second win in the last three weeks. Not only did he find the end zone, but he also delivered a 58-yard reception to put the Jaguars on the edge of the red zone late in the first half. Thomas should continue to be treated as a solid WR2 option in fantasy football, including next week when the Jaguars return stateside to face the Green Bay Packers.
