Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Amon-Ra St. Brown

Friday, November 7, 7:07 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) did not practice all week and has officially been ruled out for Week 10 against the visiting Detroit Lions, according to Ben Standig. McLaurin suffered a quad injury in Week 4 and missed four games before returning in Week 8. The 30-year-old veteran aggravated the injury upon his return, and now he'll miss a second straight game. There have been reports suggesting that he may be out beyond the team's Week 12 bye, too, so fantasy managers could be without McLaurin beyond this weekend. The Commanders are extremely banged up heading into Week 10, as quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) and receiver Luke McCaffrey (collarbone) are out for the foreseeable future. Veteran Deebo Samuel Sr. is going to be force-fed targets, while rookie Jaylin Lane will also have an increased role in the passing attack in D.C. going forward.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been one of the NFL's most consistent players at the position so far this season. The 26-year-old has recorded 59 catches for 635 yards and seven touchdowns on 74 targets across eight games played. He's earned double-digit targets in each of Detroit's last three contests, and he's logged at least six catches and 70 receiving yards in every game but two in 2025. St. Brown gets a favorable matchup on paper in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. Through nine weeks, Washington ranks last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.8) and 29th in passing touchdowns allowed (19). Making matters worse, top cornerback Marshon Lattimore (knee) suffered a season-ending knee injury in Week 9. St. Brown profiles as a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 10.
