Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Jaxson Dart

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.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart completed 24 of his 33 pass attempts for 191 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. He also registered eight rushing attempts for 56 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. The rookie sensation has played quite well despite New York's 2-7 record; he has 11 total touchdowns and just one interception over his last four games. In fact, he has scored a rushing touchdown and a passing touchdown in four straight contests. Even if the Giants continue to lose, Dart should be started in most fantasy leagues. He's a mid-to-low QB1 for Week 10 against the Chicago Bears, who just surrendered 470 yards and four touchdowns to Joe Flacco.
