Should I start Jordan Addison or Caleb Douglas in Week 9?

Updated Nov 3, 2:21 PM ET.

Start Jordan Addison: 93 percent of the snaps and 20 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Caleb Douglas's 80 percent of the snaps and 16 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.
