Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Jakobi Meyers

Tuesday, November 4, 6:49 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf logged just two receptions for six yards on four targets in a 27-20 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. On paper, everything was set up for Metcalf to deliver on Sunday, but he instead turned in his worst performance of the season. He took a backseat to Calvin Austin III, Darnell Washington, and Pat Freiermuth, failing to receive a single opportunity in the second half. If there's any silver lining, it's that Metcalf was targeted by Aaron Rodgers twice inside the five-yard line. Better days are certainly ahead for the seventh-year pro, and Pittsburgh still clearly views him as its WR1 after standing pat at receiver through the NFL trade deadline. That said, expectations should be tempered for Metcalf against a tough Los Angeles Chargers defense in Week 10.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers walks into an immediate opportunity to dominate the target share as they face the Houston Texans in Week 10. Meyers joins a wide receiver room absent of Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee). The Jaguars are averaging just 215.3 yards per game through the air, but Meyers' biggest competition for targets this week is 23-year-old Parker Washington. Trevor Lawrence and the offense face a tough test against a Texans defense that is allowing just 177.5 passing yards per game and ranks fourth with nine interceptions on the year. Meyers is a must-start option this week, as Lawrence tests out his new weapon on day one.
