Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or DK Metcalf

Saturday, November 8, 3:00 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams has five touchdowns over his last two games, and he'll look to build on his scoring tendencies during Sunday's Week 10 clash with the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Adams already has eight trips to the end zone this year, tying his season totals from 2023 and 2024. He's averaging one score per game; extrapolated over a 17-game season, that would represent the second-best total of his career. We'll see if he can continue to score at this absurd rate, but even if he tails off slightly, he'll still be a solid fantasy WR1 every week. He has shown that he is matchup-proof and can co-exist alongside Puka Nacua, which is great news for Adams and his fantasy managers. He should be started in all leagues as he takes on a 49ers defense that has surrendered the sixth-most receptions and eighth-most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers in 2025.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is coming off his worst showing of the season and will hope to bounce back against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. Unfortunately for Metcalf, Los Angeles has been stingy against the pass, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wideouts and the third-fewest passing yards per game. On the positive side, Metcalf has been heavily involved in scoring situations, earning over 60% of Pittsburgh's red-zone targets this year. Assuming this contest remains competitive throughout, quarterback Aaron Rodgers should look his way early and often, especially near the goal line. While Metcalf's weekly reliability has dipped, his upside keeps him in play as a low-end WR2 or strong flex option.
