Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or James Robinson

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin will look to bounce back following last week's underwhelming fantasy performance against the Minnesota Vikings. He's trending in the right direction with a more favorable matchup in Week 15 against the New York Giants. The Giants have allowed the fourth-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. McLaurin has played in just six games this season, averaging 3.8 catches, 56.7 yards, and 0.3 touchdowns per contest. He'll be dealing with a change in quarterback this week as Marcus Mariota starts in place of Jayden Daniels (elbow), but that shouldn't have a significant effect on his fantasy value. McLaurin's best fantasy performance of the year came in Week 13 with Mariota under center, when the 30-year-old pass catcher had seven catches, 96 yards, and a touchdown in the Commanders' upset win over the Broncos. With a favorable matchup on tap, McLaurin should be viewed as a high-end WR2 in most leagues.

New Orleans Saints' running back James Robinson was active in Sunday's preseason loss as he fights for a roster spot. The veteran journeyman carried the ball five times for 27 yards and caught two passes for 12 yards. He also saw some work on special teams as a return man. Robinson has been unable to stick on a roster ever since he was traded from Jacksonville in 2022, and it will be an uphill climb for him to make the Saints' 53-man roster unless he impresses on special teams.
