Should You Start or Sit Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in Week 18?
The Nick Westbrook-Ikhine profile was always a thin one. The touchdowns were great, but they were essentially his only targets, and we are talking about the 30th-ranked scoring offense in the league.
He has just 82 yards to show for his 140 routes over his past four games and can be firmly left out of your Flex consideration this week. Calvin Ridley remains the top option in this passing game, and Mason Rudolph has taken a liking to Chig Okonkwo when it comes to target volume, leaving NWI without a path to much of anything in terms of projectable opportunity.
