Who Should I Start? Parris Campbell or Quez Watkins

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Parris Campbell suffered an MCL sprain in his knee, according to Calvin Watkins of the Dallas Morning News. Campbell was helped off the field during Saturday's practice and appears set to miss some time. It could've been worse news for the 28-year-old, but unfortunate nonetheless. The former 2nd round pick has bounced around a few teams over the past few seasons, with the Cowboys being his fourth team in four years. His career high for yards and receptions came during his final season in Indianapolis, when he recorded 63 catches for 623 yards and three touchdowns. He currently projects as a depth piece battling for a spot in the Cowboys receiver room behind established studs in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced on Friday that they re-signed wide receiver Quez Watkins to their practice squad after releasing him earlier this week. Watkins will return to Pittsburgh as extra receiving depth to begin the 2024 campaign behind George Pickens, Van Jefferson, Calvin Austin III, Scotty Miller and rookie Roman Wilson. The fact that the 26-year-old wasn't able to impress the coaching staff enough during training camp and the preseason to win a 53-man roster spot in one of the weakest WR rooms in the league pretty much says all you need to know about Watkins. He was a sixth-round selection by the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020 out of Southern Mississippi and racked up 98 receptions on 147 targets for 1,249 yards and six touchdowns in his four years in Philly over 49 games (25 starts). Watkins is well off the fantasy radar for now in Pittsburgh.
