Who Should I Start? Roman Wilson or Jaylin Lane

Friday, September 12, 11:21 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson did not see the field much in the season opener and will hope for more involvement in Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson logged just 10 of a possible 56 offensive snaps in Week 1, well behind starting wideouts DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III. With Wilson competing alongside Ben Skowronek and Scotty Miller for the WR3 role, and Pittsburgh showing a willingness to utilize multiple tight ends, his path to meaningful opportunities remains narrow. As a second-year player who struggled to stay healthy as a rookie, Wilson may emerge at some point, but he should only be viewed as a stash in dynasty formats and cannot be considered in redraft lineups this week.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jaylin Lane could play a bigger role in Week 3 against the Raiders with Noah Brown (groin) out for the game. Lane has already played a decent amount on offense through two weeks, and he ran the fourth-most routes on the team in their Week 2 loss. The rookie caught only one of three targets for yards against a stingy Packers defense. Lane generated buzz during training camp for his speed and playmaking ability with the ball in his hands, and now he has a bigger opportunity. It will be interesting to see how offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury handles the key absences on offense, as both Lane and Deebo Samuel Sr. are better suited for the slot. Lane will be an interesting player to watch, but he isn't a viable fantasy option for Week 3.
