Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Sunday, December 22, 11:38 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz (concussion, shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He had missed practice on Wednesday before finishing the week in a limited capacity. The veteran tight end was officially listed as questionable entering this weekend, but the expectation was that he'd be able to suit up. Ertz has appeared in 14 games this year, catching 54 passes for 526 yards and four touchdowns while ranking as the overall TE10 in PPR leagues. His best outing of the year came against the Eagles, so he'll look to replicate that big showing this week in Philadelphia. Ertz is a dependable mid-to-low TE1 option for fantasy purposes.

Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is a flex play with great potential in Week 16. He and the Cardinals will travel to Carolina to face a defense that ranks 16th in fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers. Harrison Jr. has been boom or bust all season, and this week, he's presented with an opportunity to boom. He has been somewhat touchdown-dependent for fantasy production this season, and he will be facing a defense that has allowed the most passing touchdowns in the NFL. Despite not fully living up to the high expectations that come with being a top-five pick to this point, he has received over 90 targets this season and will be involved in Sunday's game plan. Harrison Jr. should be considered a flex play this week, with managers trusting him in their lineups.
