Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Jalen Reagor

Saturday, September 13, 7:47 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins proved why he's a three-time All-Pro with an amazing one-handed grab against the Buffalo Bills for a touchdown. While his days of 100+ targets per season are in the rearview mirror, he can still play that outlet role whenever called upon. The biggest issue for fantasy managers is that it's nearly impossible to predict which games he'll be more involved in compared to the others. In Week 2, he'll go up against the Cleveland Browns, who do have a better and more aggressive defensive unit. Hopkins might be viable in very deep leagues, but he likely won't receive more targets than Mark Andrews again, which would leave him around fourth in the target pecking order. So managers in 12-team leagues can safely leave him on the bench.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Jalen Reagor (undisclosed) has been placed on injured reserve, according to an announcement from the team. Reagor was cut by the Chargers as they trimmed their roster down to 53 players, but he was signed to the practice squad shortly after. By being placed on injured reserve, the former first-round pick will miss a minimum of four weeks. Reagor has struggled to produce through five NFL seasons, as he's never surpassed 400 yards or two touchdowns in a single year. He appeared in eight games with the Chargers in 2024, catching seven passes for 100 yards and zero scores. He'll remain off the fantasy radar even when he's healthy again.
