Who Should I Start? Simi Fehoko or John Metchie III

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Simi Fehoko was hardly involved in the offense until a few weeks ago. However, the 26-year-old has seen an increased role lately with the Chargers banged up at wideout. Over the last two weeks, Fehoko has hauled in five of his 10 targets for 89 yards. There's a good chance he continues seeing extended playing time with Quentin Johnston (ankle) listed as doubtful and Ladd McConkey (hip) tagged as questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. The absence of either player should mean more targets for Fehoko in Week 8. He's not an ideal fantasy option but could be a low-end flex option for desperate fantasy managers this weekend.

Houston Texans wide receiver John Metchie III hauled in all three of his targets for 33 yards in the Texans' 34-10 victory at Dallas on Monday night. The third-year receiver was coming off a career game last week against Detroit, and remained involved despite the Texans seeing the return of top receiver Nico Collins. The Alabama product has now played more than 60% of Houston's snaps three weeks in a row and appears to have hold of their third receiver spot now that Stefon Diggs (knee) is out for the season. Metchie won't get much volume, though, so he'll mostly be a desperation streaming option as Houston takes on Tennessee in Week 12.
