Who Should I Start? Treylon Burks or Cedric Tillman

Saturday, December 6, 9:51 AM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks hauled in one of the highlight catches of the season during Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. Burks finished with one catch for five yards and a touchdown, attracting some fantasy football interest after making such a sensational play. The former 2022 first-round pick missed Washington's Week 11 game against the Miami Dolphins due to a finger injury, but he has carved out a role with the team. He has five catches for 77 yards and a touchdown on eight targets while playing 54.1% of the snaps in three games. Washington's offense is getting healthier by the week, with Terry McLaurin returning last week against Denver, and now quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) and receiver Noah Brown (groin) are both set to return in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. It will be interesting to see what role Burks plays with Brown back in the fold. While Burks has intriguing upside in deeper leagues, he can safely be left on the waiver wire in most re-draft leagues for Week 14.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman hasn't been a big fantasy contributor since returning in Week 10 against the New York Jets after missing four games due to a hamstring injury. The 25-year-old has recorded six receptions for 68 yards on 12 targets over the past four games, while posting the third-highest route share (63.8%) for the Browns, trailing only Jerry Jeudy and rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. Tillman is tough to trust for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans, with the current state of the Browns' offense. The Titans have allowed the sixth most PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers, but Tillman is only an option in deeper leagues in Week 14.
