Who Should I Start? Tank Dell or Keon Coleman

Houston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) tore his MCL, LCL and ACL in the Week 16 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday and also dislocated his knee and suffered meniscus damage. He has a long road of recovery ahead of him that will require multiple surgeries. "It would be great if he could participate at some point next season, but it's far from guaranteed he will play at any point next season. It's similar to what happened with Browns running back Nick Chubb. They're both knee dislocations, but not all knee dislocations are the same. This is a much more complicated surgery process," Dr. David Chao said. It's the second straight year that Dell's season has been cut short due to a serious leg injury. However, this one is much more serious and will affect his long-term fantasy value heading into 2025. Despite playing three more games in 2024, Dell wasn't as productive as he was in his rookie campaign, catching 51 of 81 targets for 667 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman caught one pass for 17 yards in the team's 24-21 victory over the New England Patriots. The rookie didn't log a reception until early in the second half. He was targeted on a deep pass in the second quarter that landed in the hands of a New England defender. The Buffalo passing offense was out of sync on Sunday. Josh Allen threw for 154 yards. Coleman has four targets in the two games since his return from a wrist injury. It'll be difficult to insert the second-round pick into starting lineups when the Bills face the New York Jets in Week 17.
