Who Should I Start? Zay Jones or Christian Watson

Wednesday, November 12, 12:40 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones (Achilles) tore his Achilles in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday and will miss the rest of the season, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Additionally, the Cardinals will be without top wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. "this week and possibly longer" after he underwent surgery for appendicitis. Arizona's receiving corps will be very thin for quarterback Jacoby Brissett on Sunday against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Tight end Trey McBride should be a target hog, with Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch stepping up as the top two receiving options in the passing attack. Jones, 30, wasn't really on the fantasy radar to begin with in 2025 in a struggling Cardinals offense. He will finish with just 12 catches for 183 yards and no touchdowns in his eight games played.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (chest) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Watson was injured in the second half of Sunday's loss to the Denver Broncos and was sent to the hospital for evaluation after the game. The 26-year-old was cleared of a long-term injury, but his status for Week 16 against the division-rival Chicago Bears on Saturday is up in the air. Head coach Matt LaFleur said Watson could be "fighting to make it by game time." Watson has been quarterback Jordan Love's favorite target since making his season debut in Week 8, catching 28 of 43 targets for 481 yards and five touchdowns in eight games. He had four grabs for 89 yards and two TDs in the first game against Chicago. If Watson is unavailable on Saturday, all of Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, and rookie Matthew Golden could see more targets.
