Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Terry McLaurin

Monday, December 8, 9:39 AM

NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported Monday morning that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf stayed overnight in a Baltimore hotel after going to a local hospital following the game. Metcalf was experiencing stomach pains on the flight, and, out of an abundance of caution, the team's medical personnel sent him to a nearby hospital. He's flying back to Pittsburgh today. At this point, it's unclear what Metcalf's availability for Week 15 will be, but it's certainly something that fantasy managers will want to monitor closely as the week progresses. Metcalf exploded in Week 14 in the Steelers' huge division win over the Baltimore Ravens, 27-22. Metcalf had 148 receiving yards on 12 targets and seven receptions. Up next for the Steelers is a crucial AFC tilt against the red-hot Miami Dolphins (6-7), who have now won four games in a row.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin had an excellent performance in his return to action in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos after missing significant time due to a quadriceps injury. McLaurin recorded seven receptions for 96 yards and a touchdown while matching a career high with 14 targets. Star quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) will return on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, and his dynamic skill set should provide a boost to McLaurin and the entire Washington offense. The 30-year-old wideout has been riddled by injury this season, playing in just five games while recording 20 receptions for 299 yards and two touchdowns on 35 targets, with both touchdowns coming in his past two games. It's a tougher matchup on Sunday against a Vikings defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest passing yards per game, but McLaurin figures to be heavily involved again. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR22 in PPR leagues in Week 14.
