Who Should I Start? DeVante Parker or DK Metcalf

Monday, May 20, 8:11 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVante Parker announced his retirement on Monday evening. The 31-year-old, who signed with the Eagles in March, was once one of the NFL's most promising wideouts. He spent most of his career in Miami, where he had the best season of his career in 2019 by amassing 1,202 yards and nine touchdowns off 72 receptions. Parker spent a few more years in Miami before suiting up for the Patriots over the last two seasons. However, he was nowhere near as productive as he was in 2019, so New England released him. The 31-year-old will finish his NFL career by totaling 690 catches for 5,660 yards and 27 touchdowns.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf had a disappointing outing in Week 7 but is poised to bounce back against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. The Packers have been strong against the run and average against the pass, setting up a favorable game script for quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his weapons. Even with fellow wideout Calvin Austin III (shoulder) returning to the lineup, Metcalf remains the focal point of Pittsburgh's passing attack. He leads the Steelers in all major receiving categories and is tied for the team lead in red zone targets. With this contest projected to feature plenty of scoring, Metcalf profiles as a high-end WR2 and a must-start fantasy option in most formats.
