Who Should I Start? Terry McLaurin or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Saturday, December 13, 12:54 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin recorded three catches for 41 yards on six targets in last week's blowout loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The 30-year-old wideout was unable to build on his season-best performance in Week 13 against a stout Denver Broncos secondary, where he hauled in seven of 14 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown with Marcus Mariota at the helm. McLaurin will be catching passes from Mariota again in Week 15's divisional matchup against the New York Giants after Jayden Daniels (elbow) aggravated his elbow injury in last week's loss. The veteran collected just two catches (four targets) for 27 yards in Week 1 against the Giants, but snagged two touchdowns against them last season in their Week 9 meeting. The Giants' defense has struggled in all areas this season and has allowed the fourth-most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers this season. McLaurin ranks as RotoBaller's WR15 in PPR leagues in Week 15.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon has ruled out wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) for the Week 15 game on Sunday versus the hosting Houston Texans, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. Harrison will now miss his fourth game in the last five weeks. He also missed Weeks 11 and 12 following an appendectomy. Gannon expects Harrison to return this year, though. "He's doing a lot better," the head coach said. With three games remaining after this week, the 23-year-old former first-rounder could return, so fantasy managers still alive in the playoffs need to hang on. With Harrison out again this weekend, Michael Wilson should be peppered with targets yet again and should be considered a must-start in all fantasy formats, even against the top defense in the NFL. Through 27 NFL games, Harrison has not lived up to his draft stock of fourth overall. He has a 40-594-4 line in 2025 in 10 games played.
