- : Kirk Cousins: LV to MIN (Sleeper injury feed)
Start Kirk Cousins: 100 percent of the snaps and 0 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Tre Tucker's 67 percent of the snaps and 21 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.
Should I drop Tre Tucker for Kirk Cousins?
Yes, on the rest of the season. Kirk Cousins projects 118 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (14.8 a game over 8 games), Tre Tucker 64 (9.1 a game over 7 games).
