Who Should I Start? Tyquan Thornton or Gage Larvadain

Sunday, December 14, 5:59 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (concussion) exited Sunday's loss to the Chargers in the concussion protocol. The wideout sustained this injury in the final frame after catching a 21-yard strike from Patrick Mahomes. Thornton finished the game with two catches on three targets for 47 yards. His yardage total trailed just Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce. With Marquise Brown unable to suit up due to personal reasons, Thornton saw a larger role. Managers should monitor his status leading up to their Week 16 matchup against the Titans. If he is unable to play, JuJu Smith-Schuster would likely see an increase in snaps but would not carry much fantasy value as their QB, Patrick Mahomes, exited this contest with a knee injury and is alos in danger of sitting out next week.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Gage Larvadain carried the ball once for a four-yard touchdown and caught two of his three targets for 23 yards in a 30-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in preseason action on Friday. Larvadain punched in a short touchdown in the third quarter to give the Browns a 21-7 lead. The undrafted rookie out of South Carolina also handled two punt returns, but he ultimately was forced from the game early with what is being called a lower-body injury. Larvadain will hope to be ready to return to the field in time for the Browns' next preseason game, which is set for next Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
