Who Should I Start? Xavier Worthy or Tetairoa McMillan

Saturday, November 15, 4:59 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will take on the Denver Broncos in Week 11. Worthy should be well-rested coming out of the team's Week 10 bye, but it may not matter given his lack of production lately. Worthy was set to open the season as the team's clear WR1 during Rashee Rice's suspension, but Travis Kelce ran into Worthy, derailing his season in the opening quarter of Week 1. Worthy returned from his shoulder injury in Week 4 and racked up five catches for 83 yards, along with some usage in the run game. It was a promising first game, but it has been downhill since for Worthy. The speedy wideout has now caught three or fewer passes in three of his last four games. Worthy has only managed to eclipse 50 receiving yards twice in six games this season, and now he has to contend with Rice for targets. Worthy will also face the Broncos defense this week, the toughest matchup for opposing wide receivers this season. Worthy is ranked WR29 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting him in WR3/Flex range this week.

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan caught eight of 12 targets for 130 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 11 win over the Atlanta Falcons in overtime. McMillan continues to showcase a phenomenal rapport with Bryce Young, fetching at least eight targets in eight of his first 11 games. The rookie set new season-highs (and, thus, career-highs) in targets, catches, and receiving yards on Sunday. He'll look to build on his momentum as a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside entering Week 12 against the San Francisco 49ers.
