Who Should I Start? D.K. Metcalf or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (knee) suffered a Grade 1 MCL sprain in the Week 7 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday and is now being considered "week-to-week," according to a source. Metcalf left Sunday's game in the fourth quarter and was seen trying to test his knee out on the sideline before eventually shutting it down and heading to the locker room with a trainer. The 26-year-old did some damage for his fantasy managers before leaving, though, catching four passes for 99 yards and a touchdown on seven targets. If Metcalf is unable to play in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills, hopefully he'll be ready for a Week 9 tilt against the Los Angeles Rams. Seattle has a bye in Week 10. If Metcalf misses any time, both Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett would immediately become much more attractive in starting fantasy lineups.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. caught just three of his six targets in the Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Harrison Jr's official stat line was three catches for 21 yards. He seems to be out of sync with the Cardinals' offense over the last couple of weeks. At times on the field, he appears disengaged and not consistently targeted. The usage of wide receivers in the Cardinals' offense may be alarming for fantasy managers, but Harrison Jr. is not someone to remove from your fantasy team. The Cardinals will travel to Miami next week to face the Dolphins, and Harrison Jr. will likely still be a starter in fantasy. However, fantasy managers may want to explore other options until some consistency is established.
