Who Should I Start? Tim Patrick or Elic Ayomanor

The Jacksonville Jaguars have acquired veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick from the Detroit Lions in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The 31-year-old recorded 33 catches for 394 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games with Detroit last year. The Lions' decision to move on from Patrick signals an internal belief in third-round rookie Isaac TeSlaa, who was a standout performer in the preseason. In Jacksonville, Patrick will likely step into the team's WR3 role next to Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor struggled in his first game back after missing a week with a hamstring injury, recording just one catch for five yards on five targets in his team's blowout Week 13 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. On the bright side, Ayomanor has earned at least five targets in six straight games entering his Week 14 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. However, Ayomanor has been unable to turn the solid target volume into consistent production, recording 186 receiving yards and zero touchdowns over that six-game span. The 22-year-old's job won't get any easier in Week 14 against the Cleveland Browns. Entering the week, Cleveland has allowed the third-fewest passing yards (2,327) in the NFL. Ayomanor's stable target share gives him a projectable floor, but he still profiles as a deep-league flex option at best in Week 14.
