Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Josh Jacobs

Tuesday, October 21, 11:15 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz had his best game of the season so far in Week 7, recording nine catches for 98 yards on 10 targets in his team's 27-19 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Schultz has now recorded 30 catches for 284 yards on 37 targets across six games played. The 29-year-old is not an explosive player, and he's yet to find the end zone this season. Still, Schultz has now earned at least six targets in each of his last four games. For fantasy managers looking for a tight end option who can provide a safe floor, Schultz could be a decent streamer off the waiver wire. He and the Texans will host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 8.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs was on the injury report with an illness and a calf injury in Week 7 and was a true game-time decision for the Packers in their game against the Arizona Cardinals. Despite those ailments, Jacobs still put up 58 yards from scrimmage and scored two touchdowns in the Packers' win over Arizona. Despite Jacobs averaging just 3.7 yards per carry this season, he's scored eight touchdowns on the ground and caught 16 passes for 179 yards through the air this season to help balance out the lack of efficiency on the ground. Jacobs is currently the RB7 on the season, averaging over 20 fantasy points per game, so we can't nitpick too much as long as he's a dominant RB1 for fantasy. The Packers face the Steelers in Week 8, where Jacobs remains locked in as a fantasy RB1.
