Should I start Michael Pittman Jr. or Rome Odunze in Week 10?
Updated Nov 10, 9:16 AM ET. Week 11 answers post Tuesday.
Start Rome Odunze: 90 percent of the snaps and 18 percent of the targets over their last 3 games, against Michael Pittman Jr.'s 78 percent of the snaps and 11 percent of the targets. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.
