Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Drake London

Thursday, December 11, 3:34 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf (stomach), who went to a Baltimore hospital as a precaution after Sunday's win over the Ravens due to stomach pain, returned to practice on Thursday, according to Mike DeFabo. Head coach Mike Tomlin said earlier this week that he expects Metcalf to be available for the team's Week 15 contest on Monday night versus the visiting Miami Dolphins. The 27-year-old went off for Pittsburgh on Sunday, setting season-highs in catches (seven), targets (12), and receiving yards (148) in the 27-22 victory. It was the first time that Metcalf hit the 100-yard mark since Sept. 28, and only the second time all year in his first season in Pittsburgh. His fantasy managers will be hoping that he can keep it going into the fantasy playoffs in a plus matchup against Miami in primetime. Metcalf should be treated as a low-end WR2 in fantasy in Week 15.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) has been ruled out for the Thursday night game against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15, according to Marc Raimondi of ESPN. The writing was on the wall for London to miss a fourth straight game after he missed practice on both Monday and Tuesday. The 24-year-old hasn't practiced or played since spraining his PCL back in Week 11. Fantasy managers who stay alive in the playoffs will be hoping that London can return to practice next week and play in Week 16 versus the Arizona Cardinals. With London sidelined again this week, Darnell Mooney will once again be Atlanta's WR1, although he'll be a volatile WR4/flex. Mooney had 74 yards and a touchdown in the first game without London, but in the last two weeks, he's caught only three passes for 31 yards. Tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. has benefited the most in the last three weeks with London out.
