Who Should I Start? Alec Pierce or Michael Wilson

Thursday, September 25, 2:38 PM

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce (concussion) missed practice again on Thursday, putting his Week 4 status against the Los Angeles Rams in serious doubt. The Colts face a tough challenge against a Rams defense that currently ranks sixth against the pass, though Indianapolis enters the matchup with the league's No. 2 overall offense. Pierce has been a steady complementary piece this season, hauling in nine of 13 targets for 171 yards, ranking fourth on the team in both receptions and targets. If he's unable to play, tight end Tyler Warren should remain heavily involved, while Michael Pittman Jr. and Josh Downs continue to serve as reliable options in the passing game. Quarterback Daniel Jones has excelled at distributing the ball across multiple weapons, and he'll need to maintain that balance to keep the offense rolling against one of the league's stingiest secondaries.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson should be left on benches and waiver wires when his team takes on a stingy Seattle Seahawks pass defense in Week 4. The third-year pro has a meager three catches for 22 yards in three weeks and now goes against a Seahawks defense that has allowed the second-fewest points to fantasy wide receivers. The Cardinals' passing game hasn't exactly lit it up this season, but tight end Trey McBride has been by far their top pass-catching option with Marvin Harrison Jr. and Wilson both ranking outside of the top 40 among fantasy receivers. Managers should have much better options than Wilson this week.
