Who Should I Start? Cedrick Wilson Jr. or Xavier Hutchinson

Sunday, October 19, 12:11 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. is a healthy scratch in Week 7 against the hosting Cleveland Browns on Sunday. It's the second straight week that Wilson has been a healthy scratch, and it's not a good sign for the 29-year-old's involvement in the Dolphins' offense the rest of the season with Tyreek Hill (knee) out for the season. He also missed time earlier this year due to a knee injury, and he has not officially been active at all yet in his return to the Dolphins in 2025. Last year in 15 games (four starts) with the New Orleans Saints, Wilson caught 20 of his 27 targets for 211 yards and one touchdown. With Wilson being a healthy scratch again, Miami will move forward with Jaylen Waddle as its clear No. 1 receiver. Behind him will be Malik Washington and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, but tight end Darren Waller should be quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's No. 2 target.

Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson didn't draw a single target in Sunday's 36-29 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was the first game this season where Hutchinson was held without a catch despite running the third-most routes on the team. His last catchless game came in Week 12 of last season, where he played only eight offensive snaps. The 25-year-old has still been a reliable player overall for the Texans this season, recording 21 receptions for 222 yards and three touchdowns on 29 targets while also serving as an excellent blocker. Hutchinson had his lowest snap share of the season in Week 10 at 52.2% and may continue to see less work with rookie Jayden Higgins emerging over the last few weeks. Hutchinson is a useful player for the Texans, but can be left on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.
