Who Should I Start? Aaron Rodgers or Keenan Allen

Sunday, November 2, 12:46 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (hand) appeared to suffer a hand injury during warmups ahead of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Indianapolis Colts, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. CBS Sports video showed Rodgers wincing and shaking his hand, with an emphasis on his right pinkie finger. If the veteran quarterback's throwing hand is injured, it could have an impact on his performance on Sunday. However, he continued to warm up without much issue and should be fine to play against the Colts. He remains a mid-to-high QB2 for fantasy purposes.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen was quiet in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Tennessee Titans, catching just two passes for 41 yards on five targets. His snap share has decreased for a second straight week as fellow wideout Ladd McConkey and rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden are seeing more opportunities. Still, Allen remains Justin Herbert's most trusted chain-mover. He might rebound next Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, especially if Herbert relies on quicker throws behind a battered offensive line. The Steelers' pass rush is improving, and Allen's reliability on short routes could keep him as a stable PPR option despite the reduced volume. Consider him a low-end WR3 with a consistent floor heading into Week 10.
