Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or George Pickens

Sunday, November 9, 2:39 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp (hamstring, heel) is officially active for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging a full practice on Friday. The veteran receiver is returning from a one-week absence and has been relatively underwhelming this season with 24 catches, 293 yards, and one touchdown through seven games. He and Rashid Shaheed will co-exist behind alpha receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba on Sunday afternoon.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens comes into Week 11 as the WR5 in half-PPR scoring, largely on the strength of what he was able to accomplish while teammate CeeDee Lamb was sidelined with an ankle injury. In the three games that Lamb missed, Pickens averaged 120 yards per game while scoring four touchdowns and finishing as the weekly WR2, WR19, and WR1. In the three games since Lamb's return, Pickens has failed to find the endzone, and he finished as a top-24 wide receiver only once (WR20 in Week 8). However, he has still seen nine targets in two out of three games while averaging nearly 80 receiving yards per game. In Week 11, as many teams start to face inclement weather, the Cowboys will be playing in a dome against a Las Vegas Raiders team that has been one of the most generous to fantasy receivers. Dallas is coming out of their bye week and has one of the highest implied point totals of the week, giving both Lamb and Pickens a legitimate shot to finish as top-12 receivers.
