Should You Start or Sit Mason Rudolph in Week 18?
The on-field target share distribution with Mason Rudolph under center is about as split as it can be, and that’s a pain for fantasy managers:
- Calvin Ridley: 23.6%
- Josh Whyle: 25%
- Chig Okonkwo: 23.4%
- Tyjae Spears: 23.4%
It’s encouraging for Rudolph’s future in the NFL, as a backup signal caller who can spread the ball around and execute a plan is exciting to most franchises, but in terms of holding any meaningful value in our game, this profile is not that.
