Start:

Mike Evans, TB, @ NYG

Mike Evans is not a happy camper and it makes a whole lot of sense. Tom Brady is not looking his way despite his elite ability and that could be due to the ankle injury he has been dealing with this season. With a Monday night game on tap, expect Evans to not only have more time to heal but demand the ball early and often. This is his bounceback game.

Travis Fulgham, PHI, vs. DAL

Travis Fulgham continues to be everything the Philadelphia Eagles needed as a wide receiver. Now, a wonderful matchup with the Dallas Cowboys should result in Fulgham being everything fantasy owners want in their receiver. Expect him to get a lot of looks on Sunday night.

Jarvis Landry, CLE, vs. LV

The season-ending injury to Odell Beckham Jr. means that more looks will be going around for the Cleveland Browns. Look no further than Jarvis Landry, who many should expect to get volume in the coming weeks. He now becomes a weekly must-start in all formats with a matchup vs. the Las Vegas Raiders being the first of many.

Sit:

DeVante Parker, MIA, vs. LAR

DeVante Parker is as consistent as they come in fantasy football, but that was with Ryan Fitzpatrick. We have to wait and see how DeVante Parker and Tua Tagovailoa get along, but Jalen Ramsey certainly won’t help that in any sort of way. He’s best left on the bench.

Tre’Quan Smith, NO, @ CHI

When Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders were both ruled out for the New Orleans Saints, Tre’Quan Smith was added in hot commodity because of the possibility of him getting No. 1 receiver targets. That was not the case, however, and with that expected against the Chicago Bears, it’s better to sit him.

Dallas Cowboys WRs, @ PHI

The Dallas Cowboys without Dak Prescott are in big trouble. Such big trouble that starting any of their receivers until something is fixed on that offense is a daring move in fantasy football. Sit them all until something, anything clears up.
