Who Should I Start? Aidan Hutchinson or Kayvon Thibodeaux

Thursday, October 5, 11:20 PM

Detroit Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson has a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 5, in which he will attempt to record multiple sacks for the third straight game. The Panthers have allowed pressure on 28% of their passing plays, the sixth-highest rate, and the Lions have created pressure on 34% of pass rushes, tied for the seventh-highest rate. The Lions' pass rush has ramped it up in the past two weeks, as Hutchinson, Charles Harris, and Alim McNeill have combined for seven sacks. Hutchinson himself has recorded all 3.5 of his sacks in Weeks 3 and 4 and four of his seven QB hits. This week, he has a good shot to add to those numbers and is a quality start for IDP fantasy football.

New York Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux (concussion) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Dallas Cowboys. The 2022 No. 5 overall pick, who entered Week 10 with a team-high 8.5 sacks, suffered a concussion before he was ultimately ruled out. Of course, IDP fantasy managers will anxiously await an update, considering the injury could keep him out in Week 11 for the NFC East showdown against the Washington Commanders.
