Should You Start or Sit Trey McBride in Week 17?
Nobody is perfect. Once a month, we get duds from McBride, and that’s simply the price of doing business.
- Week 3 vs. Detroit Lions: Three catches for 25 yards
- Week 9 vs. Chicago Bears: Three catches for 35 yards
- Week 16 at Carolina Panthers: Three catches for 20 yards
There’s nothing in McBride’s profile to sweat, and he remains one of the best in the game. In the Week 2 meeting with the Rams, he hauled in all six of his targets for 67 yards.
That’s on par with what you should expect, and maybe Regression Claus can come to town with a score. McBride is going to be a lineup staple for years to come and will be on the shortlist for TE1 honors this summer in terms of ADP.
