Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Tee Higgins

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver D.K. Metcalf (ankle) has returned to his team's Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears after briefly exiting the game due to an ankle injury. Metcalf limped off the field and was checked out in the medical tent, but was ultimately cleared to return to the field. Metcalf may not be at 100% for the remainder of Week 12, but Steelers fans and fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief that he avoided a major injury. Now that he's back in the lineup, the 27-year-old should continue to be the top target for Steelers backup quarterback Mason Rudolph in Week 12 against Chicago. Metcalf scored a touchdown in the first half before tweaking his ankle.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports Monday morning that Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (concussion) is in the concussion protocol. Higgins went up for a one-on-one jump ball late in the game on Sunday, and when he landed on the ground, his head whiplashed backwards and smacked the ground. He was immediately taken out of the game and ruled out for concussion-like symptoms. Before being taken off the field, Higgins disappointed fantasy managers and only caught five of his six targets for 31 yards. Considering Ja'Marr Chase (suspended) was not playing due to his one-game suspension, Higgins was first in line for targets, and it was a tough day for him going up against a stiff New England defense. Higgins will now need medical clearance on Tuesday or Wednesday to play in Thursday's contest against the Baltimore Ravens. The Bengals (3-8) will look to play spoiler against the AFC North leaders, the Ravens (6-5).
