Should I Start Gunner Olszewski?

Saturday, November 15, 10:18 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Gunner Olszewski will likely start alongside Wan'Dale Robinson during Sunday's Week 11 contest against the Chicago Bears. Darius Slayton (hamstring) has been ruled out for this weekend, leaving Robinson, Olszewski, and Jalin Hyatt as the Giants' only healthy and active wide receivers. (Ray-Ray McCloud III will likely be elevated from the practice squad, too.) Olszewski has just one catch for 24 yards and a touchdown this year, but he did see two targets while playing a season-high 38 percent of the offensive snaps with Slayton sidelined for a portion of last week's game. Fantasy managers should treat the 28-year-old as a low-floor WR3/flex with a modest ceiling. There are worse options on the waiver wire this week, and Olszewski's role as the No. 2 receiver could pair well with the installation of gunslinger Jameis Winston as the Giants' starting quarterback.
