START: Jayden Reed (GB)
Reed hasn’t hit 30 receiving yards in three weeks, but he’s quietly found the end zone three times in that span. The Lions are still a passing funnel, allowing the 4th-most fantasy points to WRs, and Reed already torched them for one of his three 100-yard games earlier this season. So, against a vulnerable secondary, Reed is ready to deliver again.
SIT: Deebo Samuel (SF)
Deebo seemed primed for a monster season after Brandon Aiyuk's early injury, but instead, he’s languishing as the WR44 in points per game. His explosive playmaking hasn’t been enough to overcome a struggling offense. Against a Bears defense that’s quietly solid against WRs, it’s better to leave Deebo out of your lineup this week.
START: Ladd McConkey (LAC)
Despite battling injuries, McConkey has become Justin Herbert’s go-to guy, racking up 27 targets and 323 yards over the last three weeks. The Chiefs' defense might seem intimidating, but they’ve given up five WR touchdowns in their last four games. Unless his injury status worsens, McConkey is a high-upside start.
SIT: Tyreek Hill (MIA)
Benching Hill sounds blasphemous, but hear me out. He’s the WR36 in points per game, and the Jets’ elite secondary has locked down WRs all season. With Miami’s offense struggling for consistency, it might be time to sit the Cheetah if you’ve got safer options.
START: Adam Thielen (CAR)
Thielen looked rejuvenated last week, earning 10 targets and turning them into 99 yards and a score. Bryce Young is finally finding some rhythm, and while the Eagles are a tough matchup, they allow enough passing volume for Thielen’s target share to shine.
SIT: Brian Thomas Jr. (JAX)
Thomas has been a rookie revelation, but this week is a no-go. The Titans’ secondary is stingy, and with Trevor Lawrence sidelined, Mac Jones under center won’t inspire confidence. Keep Thomas on your bench.
