Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Javonte Williams

Thursday, September 28, 4:58 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin is hoping to break out after an okay performance in Week 3. The Commanders are heading on the road to take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4. The Eagles are heavy favorites as Washington is listed as an 8.5-point underdog. With that in mind, there should be many pass attempts to go around as the Commanders are projected to be in a negative game script. So, while the pass attempts from quarterback Sam Howell might not be the highest quality, the sheer volume needed to keep up with the Eagles might work in McLaurin's favor. Consider him a low-end WR2 in Week 4.

The Denver Broncos couldn't really lean on their ground game after falling down big to the Miami Dolphins early in Week 3 on Sunday in a record-breaking 70-20 loss. Running back Javonte Williams did lead the backfield yet again with 11 carries, but he produced only 42 yards (3.8 yards per carry) on those 11 rushing attempts. He caught two of his three targets through the air for an additional 23 yards. The 23-year-old is still finding his footing in 2023 after tearing his ACL and LCL in Week 4 of last season against the Las Vegas Raiders, but the good news is that neither Samaje Perine or rookie Jaleel McLaughlin have really threatened Williams' workload early in the year as the Broncos ease him in. A Week 4 matchup against the 0-3 Chicago Bears could be a prime opportunity for Williams to be leaned on heavily next week.
