Week 15 Fantasy Football: Start or Sit Jerry Jeudy?
The Cleveland Browns will face the Chicago Bears this Sunday in a crucial Week 15 matchup. The Browns, with a record of 3-10, are entering the game as 7.5-point underdogs. The Bears hold a better record at 9-4, but the Browns are looking for signs of improvement.
Jerry Jeudy’s Recent Performance
In the previous week, Browns rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders demonstrated potential, especially with his connection to receiver Jerry Jeudy. Sanders linked up with Jeudy for a notable 60-yard touchdown, marking one of Jeudy’s stronger performances this season.
Jerry Jeudy’s Fantasy Outlook
Despite his recent touchdown, Jerry Jeudy has struggled in fantasy football this year, primarily due to inconsistent quarterback play and an overall weak offense. He is currently the top wide receiver for the Browns, yet he has only achieved two Top 30 finishes in fantasy rankings throughout the season.
Matchup Against the Bears
The Chicago Bears’ pass defense offers a glimmer of hope for Jeudy’s fantasy value. They have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. However, the challenging weather conditions, including dangerously low wind chills, could further complicate his performance.
Start or Sit Jerry Jeudy?
Given the circumstances—poor overall performance and harsh weather conditions—it’s prudent to consider Jerry Jeudy a risky choice for fantasy lineups.
- In PPR leagues: Sit
- In standard leagues: Sit
With the playoffs approaching, focusing on more reliable options may serve fantasy managers better than relying on Jeudy in Week 15.
