Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Jauan Jennings

Monday, November 3, 5:59 PM

The Washington Commanders aren't expecting wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) to play in the Week 10 contest against the Detroit Lions, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post. "I don't foresee (Terry McLaurin) making it for this weekend. Knowing it's game-game-bye, that has an effect. But I don't have a timetable today," head coach Dan Quinn said. McLaurin suffered a quad injury in Week 4 and missed four games. When he returned in Week 8, the 30-year-old veteran aggravated the injury, and now he appears set to miss a second straight game this coming Sunday. The Commanders have their bye in Week 12, so it's entirely possible that we don't see McLaurin again until Week 13 on Sunday Night Football against the Denver Broncos. In addition to McLaurin's injury, Washington may have lost quarterback Jayden Daniels on Sunday night to a dislocated left elbow. McLaurin's 2025 season so far has been a bust due to injuries, and he has only one touchdown on 13 receptions for 203 yards in four games.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings brought in his second touchdown of the season in the team's 34-24 win over the New York Giants in Week 9. Jennings caught four of five targets for 41 yards and the score. From a fantasy standpoint, it was his most productive game since Week 2, when he posted a 5-89-1 line against the Saints. Jennings ranked second on the team in targets and yards behind Christian McCaffrey and tied with tight end George Kittle for second (again, behind McCaffrey) in receptions. Jennings' place among the trio as San Francisco's top pass-catchers is secure for the time being. Once Ricky Pearsall (knee) and Brandon Aiyuk (knee) return, he may fall in the pecking order. In Week 10, Jennings projects as a WR3 against a Rams defense that was torched by teammate Kendrick Bourne for 142 yards in Week 5.
