Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or CeeDee Lamb

Saturday, November 29, 11:30 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf (ankle) is off the injury report and ready to go for a Week 13 showdown with the Buffalo Bills. Although Metcalf found the end zone last week, he hasn't topped 50 receiving yards in a game since Week 8 and has become increasingly unreliable for fantasy purposes. The Bills have been strong against the pass, surrendering the 10th-fewest receptions and the 10th-fewest receiving yards to opposing wideouts this season. Even with quarterback Aaron Rodgers (wrist) in line to start, Metcalf cannot be projected for a ceiling outcome in this matchup. Fantasy managers can still deploy him as a high-end WR3 or flex option, but expectations for Metcalf should be tempered.

Across seven games in 2025, Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has recorded 40 catches for 557 yards and two touchdowns on 61 targets. Even with fellow Dallas wideout George Pickens in the midst of a breakout season, Lamb has earned double-digit targets in four out of the six games where he has played all four quarters. In Week 12, Lamb gets a difficult matchup when the Cowboys host the Philadelphia Eagles. For the season, the Eagles are tied with the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs for the fewest passing touchdowns allowed (nine). Philadelphia has also played some of its best defense of late, holding the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions to a combined 16 points over the last two weeks. Still, in his first matchup of the season against the Eagles in Week 1, Lamb recorded seven catches for 110 yards on 13 targets and could have had an even bigger game if not for a couple of uncharacteristic drops. He remains a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 12 against his division rival.
