Who Should I Start? Gunner Olszewski or John Hightower

The Pittsburgh Steelers released wide receiver Gunner Olszewski on Friday, according to a source. Olszewski is a productive special-teams player mostly, and now he's free to sign with any team. The 26-year-old is well off the fantasy radar while not really being a factor at all on offense. In just two games with the Steelers this year, Olszewski had one punt return for eight yards and two kickoff returns for 24 yards. He also caught his only target for no gain. Olszewski will likely latch on with another team as a punt and kick-return option, but he can be ignored in fantasy.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver John Hightower made just one catch in Sunday's preseason game against the New Orleans Saints despite leading the team in targets with six. Hightower's one catch was for a 10 yard gain. Hightower has received some hype based on strong practice performances, but he was a non-factor in game action and is deeply buried on the depth chart. He's unlikely to be a fantasy option at all in 2023.
