Should You Start or Sit Joshua Palmer in Week 6?
The idea of Josh Palmer made sense in August, but we now have five data points to consider and it’s clear that he doesn’t have a consistent role.
The Bills are a Super Bowl contender and in being such, they have a very clear outline of roles. Khalil Shakir is going to win around the line of scrimmage, Keon Colemon is mainly going to back up defenses, and Dalton Kincaid is going to threaten the middle of the field in a variety of ways.
Factor in the excellence of James Cook and the all-around game of Josh Allen, and where is Palmer generating looks from?
Exactly, he’s not.
After a preseason full of hype, he’s failed to earn more than three targets in four consecutive games and needs at least one injury ahead of him to be rosterable.
