Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Greg Dortch

Saturday, October 4, 2:19 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has been limited to the lowest-usage role of his career so far in 2025, recording five catches for 112 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets through four games. Hopkins has yet to play more than 35% of the offensive snaps in any of Baltimore's games. With Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hamstring) sidelined for Week 5, it will be tough to trust that backup QB Cooper Rush will be able to get Hopkins the downfield and end zone targets he needs to be effective. Additionally, the Ravens face one of the NFL's best pass defenses in the Houston Texans, who have allowed the second-fewest number of touchdown passes (three) in the league. Hopkins should be avoided by fantasy managers in Week 5.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Greg Dortch (collarbone) is listed as questionable to play in Week 5 on Sunday against the winless Tennessee Titans. Dortch was limited in practice all week and could be a true game-time decision for Sunday's contest in the desert. The 27-year-old wideout had his best game of the season in last Thursday night's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, catching four of his five targets for 35 yards and no touchdowns. He carried the ball one time for a pickup of four yards. Dortch is more of a gadget player for the Cardinals than a true receiver that should be taken seriously in fantasy. At best, he's a bench stash in much deeper leagues. He will most likely have a smaller role this weekend against Tennessee with Zay Jones being cleared from his concussion. Dortch has only eight catches on nine targets for 47 yards and no scores through four weeks in 2025.
