This week\u2019s fantasy football start\/sit <\/a>dilemma centers on two talented former Ohio State Buckeye wide receivers: Garrett Wilson of the New York Jets and Chris Olave of the New Orleans Saints. Both players offer similar fantasy outlooks and have the potential for big performances in Week 10. Here\u2019s a closer look at who you should start and who you should sit this week.<\/p>\n

Garrett Wilson faces the Cleveland Browns this week, who rank 20th against opposing fantasy wide receivers. Wilson is currently the WR30 in fantasy, averaging 16.6 points per game; however, since missing two games with a knee injury, his per-game average ranks 9th among wide receivers.<\/p>\n

Wilson missed Weeks 7 and 8 due to injury but is expected to be ready after the Jets\u2019 Week 9 bye. When healthy, the Jets\u2019 offense clearly runs through him \u2014 he has played at least 94% of snaps in every game outside of Week 6, when he played 84% before leaving with an injury.<\/p>\n

With his role intact, Wilson should be able to pick up where he left off, building on his season totals of 36 catches for 395 yards and 4 touchdowns in Week 10.<\/p>\n

Chris Olave <\/a>ranks 9th among fantasy wide receivers, averaging 14.1 points per game. This week, he faces the Carolina Panthers, who rank 4th against opposing fantasy wide receivers. Olave has been a target monster this season, second in the NFL with 87 targets, trailing only Ja\u2019Marr Chase (107).<\/p>\n

Rookie quarterback Tyler Shough made his first start in Week 9, replacing struggling quarterback Spencer Rattler. Chris Olave struggled in the outing, totaling just 8.7 fantasy points on 3 catches from 4 targets for 57 yards. It remains to be seen if Olave and Shough can build chemistry moving forward. Adding to Olave\u2019s potential upside, the Saints recently traded their No. 2 receiver, Rashid Shaheed, to the Seahawks\u2014potentially opening up more targets in the offense.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re going with Garrett Wilson over Chris Olave. With Wilson back and healthy, and Justin Fields throwing him the ball, we feel more confident in his Week 10 potential. While Olave\u2019s volume is tempting, we haven\u2019t seen enough from him and Tyler Shough to be overly confident. Keep Olave on your bench.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This week\u2019s fantasy football start\/sit dilemma centers on two talented former Ohio State Buckeye wide receivers: Garrett Wilson…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":269615,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[559],"tags":[64,63,593,85],"class_list":["post-269614","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269614","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=269614"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269614\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/269615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=269614"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=269614"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=269614"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
