Who Should I Start? Adonai Mitchell or Xavier Legette

Friday, October 17, 8:37 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell will be active in Week 7 against the Los Angeles Chargers after he was inactive in Week 6 and played just six snaps in Week 5. The Colts effectively benched Mitchell after he made several mistakes in a Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, but they will turn back to him with both Josh Downs (concussion) and Ashton Dulin (chest) inactive for Week 7. The Chargers represent a tough matchup for Mitchell as they are allowing just the 30th-most fantasy points per game to receivers this season. It also remains to be seen just how much the Colts use Mitchell in Week 7, even with him active. He should not be in fantasy lineups against the Chargers this weekend.

Carolina Panthers second-year wide receiver Xavier Legette is coming off the best game of his career, having caught nine passes for 92 yards and a score in a win over the Jets. With Bryce Young leaving the game in the third quarter with a high ankle sprain, three of those catches came from backup Andy Dalton, accounting for 54 yards on a 57% target share. It's obviously not much of a sample size and could have been skewed by the fact that rookie Tetairoa McMillan drew the attention of the Jets' top corner Sauce Gardner, but Legette and Dalton have shown a connection in the past. In an uninspiring waiver week, while six teams are on bye, Legette should be added wherever he's available and can be considered for a flex start against the Bills.
