Who Should I Start? Zay Flowers or Keon Coleman

Sunday, October 12, 11:39 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (shoulder), who was listed as questionable for the Week 6 game against the visiting Los Angeles Rams, is officially active for Sunday's contest. Flowers was limited in practice all week but will suit up as the Ravens look to avoid falling to 1-5 on the season. They'll have to do it without star quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) for the second straight week, which won't be easy against L.A. Flowers caught all five of his targets for 72 yards in last week's blowout loss to the Houston Texans, with quarterback Cooper Rush making the start. It wasn't a bad showing for fantasy purposes, all things considered, but expecting a repeat of that performance from Flowers might be wishful thinking this weekend. He's definitely a fade candidate in DFS, and fantasy managers might want to consider benching him in regular leagues, too, as he's expected to play fewer snaps as he battles through his shoulder injury.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman will look to bounce back in Week 6 after cooling off since his explosive eight-catch, 112-yard debut. Over his last four games, Coleman has averaged just 3.3 receptions for 28.5 yards while posting a modest 10.8 yards per catch--a steep drop from his 19.2 average as a rookie. The 22-year-old could see a slight boost in usage if tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique) is sidelined, but he'll face a tough test against the Falcons' top-ranked pass defense. Atlanta has stifled opposing wideouts all season, and Coleman's fantasy value will likely hinge on volume and red zone looks. He remains a risky, touchdown-dependent WR4 heading into Monday night's matchup.
