Who Should I Start? Velus Jones or Kayshon Boutte

The Jacksonville Jaguars added depth to their wide receiver room on Tuesday by signing Velus Jones Jr. Jones began the season with the Chicago Bears but was released prior to Week 8. He had appeared in one game this season. With wide receiver Christian Kirk (collarbone) done for the season and Brian Thomas Jr. (chest) potentially out for a few weeks, the Jaguars needed to add depth at the position. Jones brings an element of speed that would help the Jaguars push the ball downfield. However, Jones has never been able to push for significant playing time in his three-year career. While he does have a chance to make an impact given all the Jaguars' injuries, it feels unlikely that this move will wind up being a significant one for the team. Expect him to remain buried on the depth chart for the time being.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte caught four of his six targets for 33 yards during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Boutte was heavily involved in the Patriots' offensive game plan once again, playing 96 percent of snaps while running routes on 59 percent of the team's plays from scrimmage. The 22-year-old has played more than 80 percent of snaps in each of his last six games. Meanwhile, he has totaled six targets in each of his last four contests. Fantasy managers would like to see a slightly higher catch rate from the LSU product, but he's strung together enough solid production that he can be rostered in leagues with 14 teams or more.
