Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or DK Metcalf

Sunday, November 16, 12:29 AM

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (oblique) is expected to be active for Week 11's clash with the visiting Seattle Seahawks. The fantasy stalwart tweaked his oblique in last Sunday's victory against their division-rival 49ers, opening the week of practice as a DNP. However, Adams' injury was never considered significant, and he practiced in a limited capacity on back-to-back days ahead of this weekend's outing. The veteran has been a touchdown machine in 2025, scoring nine in as many appearances. As such, fantasy managers should have no qualms slotting him into their lineups if he's active. Even in a less-than-ideal matchup, Adams is a fringey WR1 considering his scoring upside.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf has been incredibly quiet over the past two weeks, but he'll look to get back on track against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Cincinnati has been middle-of-the-pack against fantasy wideouts overall, though they've been notably tough on opposing WR1s lately. Still, it is difficult to overlook the potential for a shootout, as this contest carries one of the highest projected point totals of the week. While Pittsburgh's tight ends are likely to get involved, Metcalf remains the clear top target for quarterback Aaron Rodgers and should see frequent usage on Sunday, especially if both offenses are trading scores. There is plenty of risk associated with starting Metcalf, but he offers a strong amount of upside as a low-end fantasy WR2 against the Bengals.
