Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Justin Jefferson

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quad) is working on the side of the team's Thursday practice with athletic trainers after missing Wednesday's practice, according to John Keim of ESPN. Despite McLaurin's appearance at practice, the Commanders have already ruled him out for Week 11's game at Miami. The former Ohio State standout will have missed seven games heading into a Week 12 bye, part of a nightmarish year for a Washington team coming off a run to last season's NFC Championship Game. McLaurin has been one of fantasy football's bigger disappointments in 2025, but with a return seemingly likely in Week 13, he could be a welcome addition for managers making a playoff push.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson is yet again a WR1 when the Vikings play host to the Chicago Bears in Week 11. The superstar has been quieter than normal during the past month as backup quarterback Carson Wentz and second-year starter J.J. McCarthy lead the charge for an up-and-down offense, but Jefferson still has been earning a ton of targets. McCarthy has targeted Jefferson 21 times in the past two weeks but only connected on 10, though the pair collaborated for a tide-turning touchdown in the first meeting against Chicago that sparked a fourth-quarter comeback. The Bears rank 24th against PPR receivers, offering a chance for Jefferson to break his cold streak. The Vikings likely will be erratic as they break in a 22-year-old QB, but the matchup and Jefferson's ability should have the superstar locked into lineups in all formats.
