Who Should I Start? Tim Patrick or Tre Tucker

Wednesday, August 27, 8:07 AM

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.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker had a modest outing in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns, recording just three catches for 28 yards. However, Tucker was targeted 10 times and has now earned 18 targets over the last two weeks. With the Raiders having traded Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars at the trade deadline, Tucker now profiles as the clear WR1 in Las Vegas. The team's overall offensive struggles hold down the 24-year-old's upside to some degree. However, if he continues to earn close to double-digit targets every week, Tucker should see his overall production spike. In any PPR fantasy league with 12 or more teams where he's not already rostered, Tucker should be a waiver-wire target heading into a Week 13 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers.
