Who Should I Start? Zay Jones or Isaac TeSlaa

Saturday, November 1, 8:43 PM

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones was cleared from the injury report, but it may not matter in terms of whether or not he's startable in most fantasy leagues. While he has looked better in their last two games with Jacoby Brisset under center, Jones is currently the WR95 on the year, and until those last two games, he didn't register a finish above WR61 in half-PPR formats. One thing going for him is that the Dallas Cowboys give up the most fantasy points per game to opposing receiving corps, and Brissett is starting at least one more time. With that being said, Jones is not a trustworthy start for anyone that's not in a very deep league.

Across the first seven games of his NFL career, Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa recorded three catches for 54 yards and two touchdowns. The 23-year-old has flashed contested-catch brilliance, but has been unable to be consistently productive on a week-to-week basis. TeSlaa may see a larger role in Detroit's offense post bye week. However, in his final game before the team's Week 8 bye, TeSlaa played just 13% of Detroit's offensive snaps, his lowest playing time share since Week 1. The Lions have a difficult matchup in Week 9 against the division rival Minnesota Vikings, who have allowed the fourth-fewest passing yards (1,428) in the NFL through eight weeks. TeSlaa should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 9.
