Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Saturday, October 25, 12:59 PM

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.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba had eight catches for the third straight week and finished with 123 yards and a touchdown in his team's 27-19 win on Monday. JSN has been one of the top receivers in the league this year, and Sam Darnold continues to give him plenty of targets. He has 36 targets over the last three weeks and has emerged as a true WR1 in Seattle after the departure of D.K. Metcalf this past offseason. Smith-Njigba and the Seahawks are on a bye this week, but he'll look to pick up where he left off in a great matchup in Week 10 against the Commanders. After Washington, Seattle faces the Cardinals, Rams, Titans, and Vikings. At this point, Smith-Njigba is an every-week lock in your lineup, aside from his bye this week.
