Who Should I Start? Zach Pascal or Kevin Austin Jr.

Saturday, March 22, 1:33 PM

Veteran free-agent wide receiver Zach Pascal is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the New York Giants on Saturday. Pascal will reunite with receivers coach Mike Groh from their days with the Indianapolis Colts. The 30-year-old veteran will head to the NFC East after catching just four of 15 targets for 19 yards and no touchdowns in 31 games (one start) with the Arizona Cardinals the last two years. He played in 17 games a year ago but wasn't targeted at all on offense and was primarily a special-teamer. In the Big Apple, Pascal will have an opportunity to compete for a depth role on offense, but he will most likely continue to fill in on special teams in 2025. He faces an uphill battle for fantasy value behind the likes of Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and the recently signed Lil'Jordan Humphrey.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. has seen increased playing time over the last few weeks. Austin has seen 70 percent of the offensive snaps or more during each of the last three games. Sadly, Austin hasn't been able to do much with the extra snaps. The 24-year-old has three receptions for 48 yards over the span. The expectation is Austin will continue seeing plenty of the field during Sunday's regular season finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, Austin hasn't done enough on the field lately to be considered a viable fantasy option.
