Who Should I Start? Tyler Lockett or Pat Freiermuth

After bringing in eight catches and finding the end zone twice in Week 2, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett had a dud of a game in Week 3. The 31-year-old caught just three of his seven targets for 34 yards in Seattle's win over the Carolina Panthers. Perhaps the final line was the result of adjustments made to the game plan at halftime, as all but three of Geno Smith's pass attempts in the second half went to tight ends or running backs. While it didn't count as an official reception, Lockett fought off safety Jeremy Chinn to catch the pass that sealed Seattle's two-point conversion in the fourth quarter. Even after a down week, Lockett is worthy of WR3/FLEX consideration for Seattle's Week 4 game against the New York Giants.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth caught three of his four targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in a 23-18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Sunday night marked a welcome return to form for Freiermuth, who totaled just two receptions for five yards through the first two weeks of the season. With quarterback Kenny Pickett showing signs of improvement this week, Freiermuth should be trusted as a reliable fantasy option going forward. The 24-year-old will get a soft matchup against the Houston Texans in Week 4.
