Who Should I Start? Terrace Marshall Jr. or Kevin Austin Jr.

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.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. is expected to have an expanded role in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints will be without Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (groin) for the regular-season finale. The absence of those players should push Austin into the No. 1 wideout role in this offense. With all the injuries to the Saints' wideouts, Dante Pettis should also see an increase in target share on Sunday. Austin made himself known to the league when he hauled in four receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown in Week 17's win over the Tennessee Titans. Austin was able to do that with Olave healthy for that game, which means he should be able to produce more without him this weekend. Fantasy managers with something on the line this week can use Austin as a FLEX play, or in DFS contests, might want to target Austin as he's priced at only $3,400 on DraftKings.
