Puka Nakua. I am not scared of Puka this week... I think it is way, way, way, way, way too cute in fantasy football to sit a top 15, top 20 player who is coming back from injury if there is not a specific report... I cannot imagine benching Puka Nakua against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Top 15-20 player returning from injury; start vs Eagles

Nakua is not a concern this week despite coming back from injury per Brock Powers; the ceiling is too high and per-route per-touch statistics are too strong to bench a top 15-20 player without a specific injury report limiting snaps. Powers started him last week as a clear fantasy starter, and Nakua should be started against the Philadelphia Eagles in all leagues.
