Who Should I Start? Michael Thomas or Michael Gallup

Friday, September 22, 9:06 AM

New Orleans Saints veteran wide receiver Michael Thomas has regained a role in the offense over the first two weeks of the season, hauling in 12 receptions on 17 targets for 116 yards. Thomas has seen consistent usage, making him an attractive FLEX option for Week 3 against a Green Bay defense that has been hit-or-miss. While the game is likely to be a lower-scoring affair, Thomas should deliver due to his consistent volume. Fire him up in Week 3 but be cautious that he could be held without a touchdown again.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup will look to spring into a solid start to the season in a Week 1 game against the New York Giants. Gallup was limited for a lot of last season, he didn't even start his season until Week 4 and oftentimes just did not seem fully recovered from his ACL injury. Now 18 months removed from it, Gallup will work as the third wide receiver behind CeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks. His target share may be somewhat limited, but he has already shown that, when at full health, he can do well with the ball in his hands. Gallup has plenty of variance and may be somewhat touchdown-dependent, but he's a decent choice in the WR4 range for Week 1.
