As fantasy football essentially reaches the midway point of the 2022 season, managers are dealing with some tough start/sit decisions between injuries and bye weeks.
Though it’s only the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers on a bye, there’s a lot of fantasy firepower sitting on the bench this week.
Doing start/sit articles can be a little challenging. The players featured on the list below should not be taken as “must starts” or “must sits.” Instead, these are more suggestions on what we believe managers should do with fringe players heading into the weekend. The choice is ultimately up to the manager.
Just because a player is listed as a “start” doesn’t mean he should be put in the lineup over the secure, bona fide studs. Vice versa for the “sits.” If there’s no better option on the waiver wire or the bench, a manager shouldn’t automatically sit the player. That’s why these can be tricky waters to navigate.
