Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Tony Pollard

Saturday, November 15, 1:29 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf has been incredibly quiet over the past two weeks, but he'll look to get back on track against the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11. Cincinnati has been middle-of-the-pack against fantasy wideouts overall, though they've been notably tough on opposing WR1s lately. Still, it is difficult to overlook the potential for a shootout, as this contest carries one of the highest projected point totals of the week. While Pittsburgh's tight ends are likely to get involved, Metcalf remains the clear top target for quarterback Aaron Rodgers and should see frequent usage on Sunday, especially if both offenses are trading scores. There is plenty of risk associated with starting Metcalf, but he offers a strong amount of upside as a low-end fantasy WR2 against the Bengals.

Across nine games played in 2025, Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard has recorded 623 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 138 total touches, an average of 15.3 touches per game. However, Pollard's usage was clearly trending downwards heading into Tennessee's Week 10 bye. After seeing at least 14 carries and 17 total touches in each of the Titans' first five games of the season, Pollard failed to crack 12 total touches in any of his most recent four outings. Tennessee has been steadily evening out the workload between Pollard and third-year back Tyjae Spears. Coming out of the bye week, there seems to be little reason for the 1-8 Titans to feed the veteran Pollard over the up-and-coming Spears. Spears has also been more efficient, averaging over a yard per touch more than Pollard. Heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Houston Texans, Pollard is tough for fantasy managers to trust as anything more than a low-end flex option.
