Who Should I Start? Van Jefferson or Marquez Callaway

Friday, March 15, 7:06 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers are signing free-agent wide receiver Van Jefferson to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday. After the trade of receiver Diontae Johnson to the Carolina Panthers this week, the move to sign Jefferson will give new quarterback Russell Wilson a new weapon alongside George Pickens and Calvin Austin III. The 27-year-old former second-round pick of the Los Angeles Rams in 2020 spent time with new Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith with the Atlanta Falcons last year, catching 12 of 28 targets for 101 yards in 12 games (five starts) with the team. The move to Pittsburgh should be a boost for Jefferson's weak fantasy value, but the Steelers could also add to the position in the upcoming NFL draft. In four years in the NFL, Jefferson has 113 receptions for 1,600 yards and 10 touchdowns in 61 games (35 starts).

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marquez Callaway has been elevated to the active roster on Saturday. For the second straight week Callaway will be on the team's gameday roster. The Saints are looking for extra depth with Rashid Shaheed (thigh) ruled out for this matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Callaway played 11 snaps last week, so fantasy managers shouldn't bother streaming him this week. It appears he's just being elevated as insurance for the team.
