What to do with Zach Pascal, Parris Campbell in fantasy football for Week 14

The Colts receivers are getting a little help this week with Campbell’s return. Here’s how to handle that in fantasy.

Few skill position player units in the NFL have been hit harder this season than the Indianapolis Colts wide receivers. But now they are starting to get a little healthier, just in time for the stretch run of the fantasy football season.

This week Parris Campbell returns to action for the first time since Week 9. The rookie—a second-round pick out of Ohio State—looked like he would a golden opportunity when T.Y. Hilton went down. And then Campbell suffered a hand injury putting him on the shelf.

Through it all, Zach Pascal has been thrust into the No. 1 receiver job, and has done more than enough to earn a regular role in the lineup, regardless of who’s healthy or not. He caught seven passes for 109 yards last week against the Titans. That was his second game this season with more than 100 yards too.

Pascal and Campbell will both be on the field this week, starting as the Colts’ top two receivers. Pascal is a slightly better option than Campbell for fantasy this week as he’s earned the top job in that offense and based on what he’s done so far this season. However, Campbell is capable of a nice day himself, worth a flyer given his upside and the matchup. Few defenses allow more passing yards than the Buccaneers, who the Colts play this week.

Sit/start recommendation

Start Pascal. Sit Campbell.
