Who Should I Start? Tyler Boyd or Hunter Renfrow

Pittsburgh Steelers reporter Mark Kaboly said on 93.7 The Fan that the team has had talks with free-agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd. It comes a day after Boyd said he's "absolutely" be interested in playing for the Steelers. It's unclear if a formal offer was made to Boyd, but the money that he's been offered around the league this offseason hasn't been in the neighborhood of what he's looking for. The Steelers acquired tight end Jonnu Smith in a trade on Monday with the Miami Dolphins, but they could still use additional receiver depth behind DK Metcalf. As things currently stand, Calvin Austin III is set for WR2 duties with Roman Wilson, Robert Woods, Scotty Miller and Ben Skowronek also on the roster. After eight seasons with the Bengals, Boyd caught 39 passes for 390 yards and no touchdowns in 16 games (eight starts) for Tennessee in 2024.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow is a healthy scratch for their Week 8 contest against the Buffalo Bills. Renfrow had a prominent role in the Carolina passing attack earlier in the campaign, but has seen his target share drop significantly. In Weeks 1 through 3, Renfrow saw 6.7 targets per game. However, in his last three games (Weeks 4 through 6), Renfrow has seen just 2.3 targets per game. This will now be Renfrow's second-straight game listed as a healthy scratch. With Renfrow sitting out, managers should expect much of the passing volume to go to rookie wideout Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, and Jalen Coker.
