Who Should I Start? Terrace Marshall Jr. or Ja'Corey Brooks

Sunday, August 31, 4:06 PM

Terrace Marshall Jr. has joined the Philadelphia Eagles' practice squad following a series of roster moves this preseason. Marshall showed some promise this preseason with seven receptions for 66 yards, and this move provides the Eagles with a low-risk depth option. The former second-round pick out of LSU has dealt with injuries and inconsistency throughout his career. Since entering the league in 2021 with the Carolina Panthers, he has not fully lived up to his potential, recording just 67 career receptions for 808 yards and one touchdown. Marshall is mainly a stash in deep dynasty formats for now.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Ja'Corey Brooks led the team in receiving in their first preseason game against the Patriots, catching all five targets for 59 yards. The 2025 undrafted free agent stepped in to play the majority of the second half and made the most of his opportunity. Brooks, a former five-star recruit out of high school, played at Alabama before transferring to Louisville for a season. He has good size at 6'2", 190 pounds, and posted over 1,000 yards and nine touchdowns in his final collegiate season. However, his poor athletic testing dragged him down in the draft process. With the Terry McLaurin contract situation and the state of the Commanders' receiver room, there is an opportunity for Brooks to make the roster as the sixth receiver. He'll need to continue to stack positive days at practice as well as produce when the lights come on for him to have a chance.
