Who Should I Start? Van Jefferson or Quez Watkins

Saturday, December 13, 12:20 PM

Across 13 games this season, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Van Jefferson has recorded 23 receptions for 237 yards and a touchdown on 42 targets. The 29-year-old has earned consistent playing time in Tennessee since Titans wideout Calvin Ridley (leg) first started dealing with injury issues this season. Across seven games since Week 6, Jefferson has played at least 73% of Tennessee's offensive snaps in every contest. Despite the consistent snap share, Jefferson has recorded no more than four receptions or 75 receiving yards in a game this season. His production upside appears capped by both his own lack of explosiveness and the Titans' larger offensive struggles. In Week 15, Tennessee will take on a San Francisco 49ers defense that has held two straight opponents to fewer than 10 total points. Jefferson should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 15.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Quez Watkins (undisclosed) has been placed on injured reserve. The 27-year-old left Friday's practice with an injury and did not return. Watkins, who began his career in 2020 with the Eagles, compiled a stat line of 98 receptions, 1,249 yards, and six touchdowns over four seasons, with his 2021 season being his most productive. His placement on IR is not expected to have any fantasy relevance, as he was far down the depth chart and looking to secure a roster spot on his new team. In a corresponding move, the Cardinals signed wide receiver Nate McCollum.
