Who Should I Start? Treylon Burks or Charlie Jones

Tuesday, December 2, 1:59 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks returned in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos and delivered one of the highlight catches of the season. Burks hauled in a twisting, one-handed catch for a five-yard touchdown with the same hand that he had surgery on just two weeks ago, which forced him to miss Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins. It ended up being the 25-year-old's only reception of the night on four targets, but it was a memorable one. Burks played a season-high 65.6% of the snaps against Denver and has made an impact in the three games he's played for the Commanders, recording five catches for 77 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. The former first-round pick in 2022 should continue to see his opportunities increase as he settles into the offense, but with top wideout Terry McLaurin back from injury, Burks still has more to prove before being considered as a legitimate fantasy football option.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Charlie Jones (ribs) is off the injury report heading into Sunday's game against the New York Jets. The wideout has been banged up all year, so his presence on the injury report isn't anything new. However, he hasn't done much for managers all season, logging only four offensive snaps, leaving him irrelevant for fantasy purposes. That's not expected to change anytime soon, with Jones in line to see the most action as a member of the special teams unit.
