Who Should I Start? Zay Jones or River Cracraft

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.

The Washington Commanders have signed wide receiver River Cracraft, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Cracraft has played for three different teams across seven NFL seasons entering 2025, but has never recorded more than nine catches in a single year. He played eight games for the Miami Dolphins in 2024 and caught seven passes for 66 yards and zero touchdowns. The 30-year-old Cracraft is a long shot to make the Commanders' 53-man roster. Still, it's somewhat notable that the team is looking to fortify its wide receiver depth amidst its ongoing contract dispute with star wideout Terry McLaurin.
