Who Should I Start? DK Metcalf or Travis Hunter

Monday, January 12, 2:36 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf returns from his two-game suspension, and on Monday night, he faces a Texans defense that finished the regular season as the fourth most difficult matchup for fantasy wide receivers. On average, the Texans held opposing wide receiver rooms 4.4 points below their season-long average in half-PPR formats. With Metcalf the only true outside threat on the Steelers' roster, he is likely to see a fair share of coverage from recently named First Team All-Pro Derek Stingley Jr. In a Wild Card matchup that sees them as three-point underdogs at home, Metcalf is RotoBaller's WR18 in fantasy playoff leagues and should be plugged into lineups on an emergency basis only.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver/defensive back Travis Hunter (knee) unfortunately saw his rookie campaign come to an early end. Hunter was only able to play in seven games before suffering a season-ending knee injury that required surgery. There was speculation that Hunter might make the switch to one position following this injury. So far, the Jags have stated they plan to continue using Hunter as a two-way player. His injury occurred during a non-contact play during practice, so it doesn't sound like it had anything to do with the wear-and-tear of playing two positions. He finished his rookie season with 28 receptions for 298 yards and one touchdown.
