Who Should I Start? Jared Goff or Chris Olave

Friday, October 10, 5:43 PM

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has been a productive player through five weeks this season, recording 1,187 passing yards and 12 touchdowns compared to just two interceptions. However, he may be a quarterback for fantasy managers to move away from in a difficult Week 6 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards (999) and fourth-fewest number of passing touchdowns (five) in the NFL so far this season. Additionally, Goff could be without starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder), which may limit Detroit's ability to push the ball downfield. In two-quarterback formats, Goff still profiles as a solid QB2, but he may be a player to avoid in Week 6 in single-QB leagues.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave recorded a team-high seven receptions on 11 targets in the Week 5 win over the Giants, turning them into 59 yards, a surprising season high. He has only found the end zone once through five contests, but his target volume keeps him involved. Olave faces a Patriots defense that allows 242.2 passing yards per game, ranking 26th in the league. Starting Patriots' cornerback Christian Gonzalez is questionable, and if he sits, Olave has a clear path to a heavy workload. He ranks as a WR2 with upside in Week 6.
