Julio Jones, Roddy White's Instant Fantasy Reaction After Week 4

Sean ODonnellSep 28, 2014

The Atlanta Falcons may have the most prolific wide receiver duo in the NFL. Quarterback Matt Ryan continues to be the envy of many of the league's signal-callers with Roddy White and Julio Jones at his disposal each week.   

During Sunday's high-octane clash with the Minnesota Vikings, both receivers came up big for fantasy owners. Here's a look at their side-by-side numbers for the day:

Early in the contest, the Vikings appeared overly concerned with Jones' ability to take the top off a defense. With coverage rolled over to his side of the field, White took full advantage. Left wide open, the veteran hauled in a 24-yard touchdown reception to tie the game at seven.

With that score, White moved into Falcons history, via the team's official Twitter account:

Even though White got the early touchdown, Jones efficiently racked up the receptions. He may have only been targeted eight times—which was still good enough for second on the teamdue to heavy coverage, but he came down with the ball in all but two times Ryan tossed it in his direction.

Jones and White continue to be thorns in the side of any opposing defense. Each week, it's a guessing game as to which receiver will have a bigger performance, but both continue to warrant labels as must-start players for fantasy owners.

Consider Jones a WR1 while White is a strong WR2 play.
