Should I start Ted Hurst III or Romeo Doubs in Week 7?
Updated Oct 22, 8:46 PM ET. Week 8 answers post Tuesday.
Start Romeo Doubs: 52 percent of the snaps and 13 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Ted Hurst III's 45 percent of the snaps and 10 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.
