Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Derrick Henry

Monday, December 8, 4:05 PM

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said on Monday that the team needs to get veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins more involved on offense, according to Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. In a tough 27-22 loss to the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers to give up a share of first place in the AFC North division, Hopkins was unable to catch his only target on Sunday. The 13 snaps that the 33-year-old veteran played in Week 14 were his lowest snap total since Week 10. Instead, the Ravens leaned more on receivers Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, and tight ends Isaiah Likely and Mark Andrews. It will be hard to trust Harbaugh's word going into Baltimore's Week 15 divisional clash against the Cincinnati Bengals, even though the matchup is a juicy one. Hopkins hasn't had more than four targets in a game in 2025 and hasn't found the end zone since Week 2.

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry is coming off of a RB1 level finish against the Cincinnati Bengals where there were plenty of points left on the table after receiving just 10 carries. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Henry more carries, but this isn't the first time he's said it, even over the course of this season. Plus, in Week 14, Henry faces off against the Pittsburgh Steelers who are currently ranked as the eighth toughest defense against opposing backfields. They allow 19.37 fantasy points per game to running backs and have only given up five rushing touchdowns all season. Henry has had a better time finding the end zone at home which still gives him a bit of a value boost, but he's projected as the RB11 in half-PPR formats on the RotoBaller rankings.
