Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Cooper Kupp

Saturday, November 29, 11:00 AM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyler Lockett is coming off his best performance of the season in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns, recording four catches for 62 yards on five targets. The veteran has been a reliable pass-catching option over the past three games, leading the Raiders' wide receivers with 12 catches (14 targets) for 139 yards, averaging 8.6 PPR points per game. It will be interesting to see how the Las Vegas offense looks in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Chargers after the dismissal of offensive coordinator Chip Kelly earlier this week. It's a tough matchup on Sunday for Lockett, with the Chargers allowing the second-fewest PPR points per game to opposing wideouts.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is not a great fantasy option in Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings. He is not receiving enough volume to provide consistent fantasy production. Kupp has been ok in games in which the Seahawks have been forced to put up a lot of points. With the Vikings struggling offensively, the Seahawks should be able to roll to victory in Week 13. Kupp's services are unlikely to be needed. The Vikings are also No. 2 against opposing wide receivers in fantasy. While slot receivers such as Kupp are often immune to those types of statistics, Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold is so indexed on wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba that it does not matter. Kupp should remain out of lineups in Week 13.
