Who Should I Start? Zay Flowers or Xavier Worthy

Saturday, November 15, 7:31 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has very consistently hovered around the high-end WR3 to low-end WR2 area this season. He's been getting 7.3 targets per game and turning them into 5.6 receptions for 69.4 yards. The biggest issue is that he hasn't gotten into the end zone since Week 1. He'll go up against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11, who gave up four touchdown passes to Lamar Jackson and company in Week 2. Flowers also had a solid stat line with 11 targets, seven catches, and 75 yards. That puts him squarely into the WR2 conversation again this week, but he does have a WR1 ceiling with Rashod Bateman (ankle) being ruled out for this contest.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) is officially questionable to play in Week 12 against the Indianapolis Colts as he battles an ankle injury. However, Pete Sweeney of The Kansas City Star reports that "all indications this week were that (Worthy) is trending in the right direction." Worthy was able to practice in full on Friday after starting the week as a non-participant in practice. Across eight games this season, the 22-year-old has recorded 27 receptions for 281 yards and one touchdown on 45 targets. It's been a particular struggle of late for Worthy, as he's recorded at least five catches or 50 receiving yards just once in his last five games. If active against Indianapolis, Worthy profiles as a low-end fantasy WR3 in Week 12.
