Should I start Brycen Tremayne or Zachariah Branch in Week 6?
Updated Oct 19, 10:11 PM ET. Week 7 answers post Tuesday.
Start Brycen Tremayne: 65 percent of the snaps and 8 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Zachariah Branch's 20 percent of the snaps and 8 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.
