Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Chris Olave

Friday, November 7, 11:31 PM

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.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave was able to come up huge for his team during Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. His biggest play of the game was a 62-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Olave would finish his day by hauling in five of his eight targets for 104 yards and one score in the victory. It appears the fourth-year wideout is building solid chemistry with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough. This was a promising performance from Olave, as fantasy managers are hopeful for more big games like this from Olave going forward. Sadly, fantasy managers will have to wait until Week 12 as the Saints head into a bye week.
