Who Should I Start? Cooper Kupp or Nico Collins

Friday, December 20, 10:00 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp is coming off a rough showing, failing to catch any of his three targets in the Week 15 win over the 49ers. However, outside of the hideous effort versus San Francisco, the wideout has played well during the 2024-25 campaign, catching 63 passes for 657 yards and six touchdowns. With the Jets on tap for Week 16, the Rams need a win to increase their chances of making the playoffs. The Jets defense has allowed only 10 touchdowns to opposing wideouts this season. Still, even with Puka Nacua commanding plenty of attention from Matthew Stafford from week-to-week, Kupp's upside keeps him a must-start in Week 16.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins had a solid but not overwhelming performance at Kansas City, finishing the day with seven catches for 60 yards and no touchdowns in the 27-19 defeat. Houston's top receiver led the team with 10 targets, though Kansas City ultimately was able to limit his damage. Perhaps most important for fantasy managers who advance in the fantasy playoffs this week, fellow Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) had to be carted off with what appeared to be a serious injury. If Dell is indeed out, Collins could command a massive target share with Houston due to take on a struggling Baltimore Ravens pass defense on Christmas Day.
