Who Should I Start? Trenton Irwin or Stanley Morgan Jr.

Sunday, September 8, 9:40 AM

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Trenton Irwin could be in line for a heavier workload during Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the New England Patriots. Fellow wideout Ja'Marr Chase (illness) is trending in the right direction, but is still uncertain for the season opener. If he sits, Tee Higgins and Andrei Iosivas would move up the depth chart. Also, Irwin could be in line to be the third starter considering he was competing for the WR3 role in camp. His value hinges on the status of Chase, which might not be known until closer to game time. Irwin could be a desperation play in deep leagues if Chase does end up sitting out.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receivers Stanley Morgan and Shedrick Jackson have been elevated to the active roster ahead of their Week 10 game against the Houston Texans. The Bengals have already ruled out Tee Higgins (hamstring) but Ja'Marr Chase (back) is also questionable, so this move is interesting. Chase is slated to test out his ailing back during pre-game warmups, making him a game-time decision, so the elevations of Morgan and Jackson are a precaution. Either way, Tyler Boyd and Trenton Irwin should be heavily involved in the Bengals' passing attack against Houston. Fantasy managers should monitor Chase's status closely before kickoff on Sunday morning.
