Who Should I Start? Zay Jones or Mitchell Tinsley

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.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley had two catches for 22 yards in Thursday's win over the Baltimore Ravens. With Tee Higgins (concussion) sidelined for this one, there were extra targets up for grabs from the returning Joe Burrow (toe). Naturally, Ja'Marr Chase led the way by receiving 14 targets. However, Tinsley finished behind him with nine. The wideout also had a few chances to find the end zone. All things considered, it appears Tinsley could be in line for continued attention from Burrow in Week 14 against the Buffalo Bills if Higgins remains on the shelf. Still, even with the potential for added involvement, Tinsley is hard to trust in any fantasy format.
