Who Should I Start? Tom Kennedy or Isaiah Williams

Wednesday, December 3, 10:13 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy has spent most of the 2025 season buried on the Lions' practice squad. However, he was pressed into action in Week 13 due to injuries to Lions wideouts Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and Kalif Raymond (ankle) and recorded four catches for 36 yards on four targets against the Green Bay Packers. With Raymond ruled out and St. Brown officially questionable for Detroit's Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, Kennedy could spend another week as the team's primary slot receiver. Dallas represents a favorable matchup for opposing passing games on paper, as they currently rank last in the NFL in both passing yards (3,234) and passing touchdowns (28) allowed. Kennedy's production upside is limited, and it's also likely entirely dependent on St. Brown's status. If St. Brown is active, Kennedy should fall off the radar of fantasy managers. However, if St. Brown is ruled out, Kennedy could be a desperation deep-league flex option in Week 14.

New York Jets wide receiver Isaiah Williams recorded two receptions for 24 yards on three targets during last week's blowout loss to the Miami Dolphins. The 24-year-old wideout has seen his snap share increase since Week 8, playing 46.5% of the snaps after playing just one total offensive snap over the first seven weeks. Williams is still not involved enough to be considered a legitimate option in fantasy, especially with undrafted rookie Brady Cook making his first career start in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
