Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Calvin Austin III

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has played a lot of snaps since the injury to Tyreek Hill (knee), but he hasn't turned that into much production. His snap share also dropped a little bit last week against the Bills, even though he still played 47% of snaps, the second-most of any receiver on the team. In that game, Westbrook-Ikhine only had one catch for seven yards and has only had four catches in the last three weeks combined. He's in a favorable matchup early on Sunday morning against the Commanders, but he's not getting enough work to be a regular contributor in most fantasy formats. He's the WR83 in RotoBaller's Week 11 rankings.

Across eight games this season, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III has recorded 22 receptions for 242 yards and two touchdowns on 37 targets. It's been a struggle for the 26-year-old over in recent weeks, as he's hauled in just three catches for 19 yards on eight targets over his last two games. Perhaps most notably, Austin III saw a significant drop in playing time in the Steelers' Week 11 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Austin III played just 19 offensive snaps against Cincinnati, his lowest total in any game this season and nearly 20 fewer than fellow Steelers wideout Roman Wilson. Heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Chicago Bears, Austin III could be fading into a depth role in Pittsburgh. He should not be trusted as a fantasy starter against Chicago.
