Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Mohamed Sanu had a tough task to start the season: replace Marvin Jones and back up A.J. Green. Over the past three weeks, Sanu has had an even tougher task: replace Green while he was out with a toe injury. Sanu performed excellently in both roles and has been one of the team's most consistent threats.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 10: Mohamed Sanu
Mohamed Sanu has been solid this season and should continue his strong play with A.J. Green back in the lineup. We break down the fantasy implications.

With Green returning in Week 9, there was some worry that Sanu would see fewer targets and as a result, fewer yards and touchdowns. That wasn't the case, though, as Sanu caught four passes for 95 yards and a touchdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He also saw eight targets on the day, and out-gained Green by a solid margin. Green caught three passes for 44 yards and a touchdown in the game.
Fantasy Impact: Sanu probably won't out-perform Green in every game, especially as Green gets more comfortable playing after missing three games. Green is simply one of the top receivers in the game, but Sanu now has established plenty of fantasy value. He's caught 39 passes for 628 yards and four touchdowns on the season, and should be started against a lackluster Cleveland Browns defense in Week 10.
