6 WR to start or sit

The wide receiver position has suffered massive injuries through the first ten weeks of the 2024 NFL season. Four other teams will take time off Week 11potentially creating more challenges for fantasy football managers trying to determine their lineups for the week.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Hill Tyreek revealed that he was suffering from a wrist injury. THE Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, New York GiantsAnd Tampa Bay Buccaneers are goodbye this week.

Fantasy football players with Hill on their team and other receivers like Marvin Harrison Jr. Or Malik Nabers will have to make tough decisions for Week 11.

Here are some options at the wide receiver positions for fantasy football players looking for a boost in Week 11, as well as some players to avoid:

Fantasy football starts them off: Week 11 receivers

George PickensPittsburgh Steelers (vs. Baltimore Ravens)

In the three games since Russell Wilson took over at quarterback, Pickens has 276 yards and two touchdowns on 14 catches. This week, he’ll face a Ravens defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers over the past four weeks, including a 264-yard, three-touchdown day from the Bengals’ Ja’Marr Chase.

Courtland SuttonDenver Broncos (vs. Atlanta Falcons)

Sutton should be considered a weekly starter at this point in the season. He was a member of the “starting” club last week despite a tough matchup with the Chiefs and he still rushed for 70 yards and a touchdown on six catches. Quarterback Bo Nix relies on Sutton far more than any other pass catcher in the Broncos offense. This week, the tandem faces a Falcons defense that has struggled to stop opposing receivers this year – Marquez Valdes-Scantling had 109 yards and two touchdowns on three catches in Week 10.

Calvin RidleyTennessee Titans (vs. Minnesota Vikings)

Ridley was a “sit” candidate last week due to the struggles he already faced when Will Levis started at center. However, concerns about the young quarterback and his connection with his top receiver were put aside after an 84-yard, two-touchdown performance against a strong Chargers secondary. This week, things get easier against the Vikings, who have allowed the third-most points to receivers in fantasy football this year.

Fantasy football sit’em: Week 11 wide receivers

Michael Pittman Jr.Indianapolis Colts (at New York Jets)

Pittman may not play in Week 11 after missing the Colts’ Week 10 game with a back injury. If he returns, there is very little upside for the veteran receiver. He’ll be banged up at best and face a Jets defense that has allowed the fewest fantasy points to wideouts this year.

DJ MooreChicago Bears (vs. Green Bay Packers)

Moore’s production has fallen off a cliff since his “revenge game” against his former team, the Carolina Panthers, in Week 5. After a 105-yard, two-touchdown day, the 27-year-old didn’t catch more than four passes, total more than 35 yards or see the end zone. Better days could be ahead with internal upheaval coming for the Bears after their fired offensive coordinator Shane Waldron. There’s no reason to believe that will be the case this week against a Packers secondary that has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to receivers over the last four weeks.

Jordan AddisonMinnesota Vikings (vs. Tennessee Titans)

All the fantasy football players hoping Addison’s strong day on “Sunday Night Football” last week was a sign of a comeback were disappointed in Week 10. That Week 9 matchup with the Colts remains the The second-year wideout’s only game this year with more than three catches, and he still hasn’t surpassed his yardage total in his 72-yard outing in Week 4 against the Packers. The Titans have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to receivers all season and the seventh-fewest over the past two weeks.
