Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Tyler Lockett

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans made his return to the field on Sunday after missing each of the last three games. Evans posted a nice outing as he hauled in five of his six targets for 68 yards in the win over the New York Giants. The veteran wideout wasn't able to find the end zone, but it was a decent performance from Evans for his first game back in the mix. The 68 yards was a team-high and the five catches were his most since Week 5. Fantasy managers should expect Evans to continue succeeding against the Carolina Panthers in Week 13.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett is now completely off the fantasy radar. He has not earned more than four targets since Week 7, and he has now caught just two passes in two consecutive games. Quarterback Geno Smith's attention seems to have shifted from Lockett to fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba who has emerged in recent weeks. The Seahawks have also toned down their passing volume which has shrunk the amount of targets available for each of the skill position players on the team. It is encouraging that Lockett was the target on an end zone interception for Smith. However, had the two connected, it still would not signal brighter days ahead for Lockett. Lockett has seemingly aged out of fantasy relevance. If anything were to happen to Smith-Njigba or DK Metcalf, Lockett would be a viable option. With those two players healthy, Lockett belongs on waivers at this point.
