Should I start Darnell Mooney or Brycen Tremayne in Week 6?

Updated Oct 19, 10:26 PM ET.

Start Brycen Tremayne: 65 percent of the snaps and 8 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Darnell Mooney's 56 percent of the snaps and 12 percent of the targets. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
