Calvin Austin III
WR - Pittsburgh Steelers
Availability
Calvin Austin hasn't been a strong fantasy producer all season, but he does have three top-36 finishes in weekly scoring this season among wide receivers (WR16, WR31, WR35). Entering Week 10, he had a 15.5% target share with 37.2 receiving yards per game, 1.53 yards per route run and a 20.5% first-read share, per Fantasy Points Data. Austin should have a strong week against the Bengals if Cincy attacks the Steelers' passing attack like they did last time these teams met. Austin missed that game with a shoulder injury. DJ Turner followed DK Metcalf on 78.1% of his routes and held him to only two receptions and 45 receiving yards in his coverage. I expect Turner to follow Metcalf again this week. That will leave Austin feasting on Cam Taylor-Britt (66.7% catch rate and 133.9 passer rating allowed) and Dax Hill (77.8% catch rate and 113.3 passer rating allowed) all day.
