Santonio Holmes

Holmes No. 1 WR on Sunday?

by Dale Redman | Fri, Sep 12th 3:03pm EDT

With injuries to the Bears' top 3 WRs, Santonio Holmes could find himself as the No. 1 receiver on the Bears depth chart this Sunday. Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery are listed as questionable against the Niners. No. 3 WR Josh Morgan has been slated as doubtful as well. Currently, Santonio is the only healthy WR on the Bears' active roster at the moment with practice squad call ups likely before Sunday. (Chicago Tribune)

Fantasy Impact:

With all the question marks about the WRs ahead of Holmes, he makes for an intriguing pickup in all leagues. If both of the top WRs sit, Holmes will be a must start WR3 in the usually high powered Bears' offense. As a Marshall or Jeffery owner, I would grab Holmes as insurance, since both WRs look to be a dreaded game time decision for the Sunday night game.
