Who Should I Start? Jordan Addison or Calvin Austin III

Friday, November 28, 3:57 PM

As the Minnesota Vikings' season circles the drain, wide receiver Jordan Addison's weekly ranking has dipped outside the top 50 for Week 13 against the Seattle Seahawks. Ranked as RotoBaller's No. 53 half-PPR receiver for this week, Addison is facing hugely unknown circumstances with the Vikings down to third-string quarterback Max Brosmer. Starter J.J. McCarthy (concussion) will miss the game, while backup Carson Wentz (shoulder) already was out for the year following season-ending surgery. Fantasy managers who have started Addison recently have seen diminishing returns, as he has a total of seven catches in November during the Vikings' offensive struggles. Against a strong Seattle defense, Addison should be considered a risky option in most formats in Week 13.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III is looking to make an impact after posting a few duds recently. Austin has been held to 36 receiving yards or fewer in each of his last three games. The 26-year-old has also seen his snap count decrease heavily over the last two contests. There is certainly some decent upside with Austin, but he's not getting the playing time to be fantasy relevant right now. It's tough to trust him as anything more than a low-end flex option for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
