For Garrett Wilson and Jerry Jeudy, Week 15 of the NFL season might not mean much. The New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns have already been eliminated from playoff contention, but for fantasy purposes, there are still roles to play for both of these guys.
Is Garrett Wilson a good pick in Week 15?
2024 has been nothing short of a huge disappointment for the Jets, with a lot of turmoil and midseason firings for the franchise. But their star players every once in a while put together some good performances, as Wilson did against the Dolphins in Week 14, with 114 receiving yards.
Can he repeat this performance? It's possible. He has had four games with over 100 receiving yards in 2024, a treat for fantasy football owners. But the matchup is also favorable, as the Jaguars' passing defense has allowed 24 touchdowns and registered just five interceptions.

But the most daunting stat is that they have allowed 3,425 passing yards in 13 games, the second-highest mark in the league. Overall, their defense is no good.
Is Jerry Jeudy a good pick in Week 15?
Speaking about disappointments, the Cleveland Browns know that the contract given to Deshaun Watson will hamper the franchise for years to come. But with Jameis Winston as the starter quarterback, one unexpected development came: Jerry Jeudy became a superstar wide receiver.
Over the past six games, the receiver amassed 678 receiving yards and three touchdowns, making for one of the hottest fantasy options available. However, facing a strong Kansas City Chiefs defense will not help his cause, especially as Wilson's matchup is far more easier.
Whom should I start between Garrett Wilson and Jerry Jeudy in Week 15?
Our Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer has the Jets wide receiver on a note above, as the matchup helps his projections a lot.
No one denies that Jerry Jeudy has put together some impressive numbers over the past month and a half, but this is the kind of small margins that you always have to find during the playoffs. Trust the matchup and go with Wilson.
