Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Emeka Egbuka

Saturday, October 25, 11:19 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has essentially been invisible for fantasy managers outside of the first two weeks. Of course, missing Lamar Jackson (hamstring) has been part of the issue, but he only averaged two targets per game with Jackson. While the Chicago Bears defense is susceptible to some big passing plays, there have been too many receivers getting targets for Hopkins to be a consistent option. Plus, there's a chance Jackson doesn't play one more week and Tyler Huntley takes over under center. Fantasy managers can avoid Hopkins this week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka (hamstring) has been cleared to suit up for the Week 8 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Egbuka suffered a hamstring injury in Week 6, but still suited up during last Monday's game against the Detroit Lions. The rookie wideout struggled as he hauled in four of his 12 targets for 58 yards in the loss. The hope is that Egbuka is close to 100 percent healthy now. The Bucs will need him to be the focal point on offense with Mike Evans (collarbone), Chris Godwin (leg), and Bucky Irving (foot, shoulder) all sidelined. Egbuka was on a roll before this injury, so he should be viewed as a must-start WR1 this weekend.
