Should You Start or Sit Dalton Schultz in Week 11?
Dalton Schultz had 66 receiving yards in Sunday night’s thriller against the Lions, his most since Week 10 of last season. All three of his catches gained at least 17 yards, a skill set that we’ve seen him flash in the past, but it’s important to contextualize what we just saw.
Last week, Schultz accounted for 28.4% of Houston’s receiving yards despite a 12.5% target share. If his situation wasn’t changing at all, I’d be skeptical. With various things changing, I’m comfortable betting against this profile as a streamer target.
Instead of being an underdog (passing script) in a game with a 49.5-point projection and Nico Collins sidelined, Houston is a touchdown favorite with a game total of 42 points while Houston’s WR1 is expected back in the mix. In this range of my rankings, I’d rather roll the dice on Hunter Henry or Jonnu Smith.
