Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Cedric Tillman

Sunday, November 17, 8:19 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught three passes for 29 yards in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs were handled their first loss of the season in this contest, and their veteran receiver was held in check. The Buffalo defense was considered a formidable unit to throw on coming into this game, which proved true. Hopkins finished the game with four targets, tied with Travis Kelce and Samaje Perine for the second-most targets on the team. The Chiefs spread the ball around in this contest, and the veteran receiver had diminished production because of that approach. Hopkins will look to turn it around next week against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 14th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Fantasy managers should feel more confident starting Hopkins next week in a more favorable matchup.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Cedric Tillman (head) entered concussion protocol after exiting Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. Tillman was visibly woozy and disoriented after taking a hit late in the third quarter. The Browns initially listed Tillman as questionable, but as soon as he entered concussion protocol, he was deemed ineligible to return. He finished Week 12 with four catches, two targets, 28 yards, and a lost fumble. Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore remain the Browns' top two receivers but could see additional volume if Tillman doesn't clear protocol in time for Week 13.
