Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Kyle Williams

Saturday, December 13, 12:03 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is coming off of his lowest snap share of the season in Week 14 and his third time producing a goose egg. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Hopkins more involved, which is like listening to a broken record at this point. Rashod Bateman (ankle) is currently listed as questionable, so Hopkins does have a chance to move up in the depth chart. While the Cincinnati Bengals' defense has been the butt of a lot of jokes, they've only allowed 15.13 fantasy points per game to opposing receivers over the last four weeks. That combined with being fourth or fifth in the target pecking order make Hopkins hard to trust. Especially with a WR83 projection in RotoBaller's rankings this week.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kyle Williams could be headed for an increased snap share and target share during Sunday's Week 17 contest against the New York Jets. New England is suddenly short-staffed at wide receiver with Kayshon Boutte (concussion) ruled out, Mack Hollins (abdomen) ruled out, and DeMario Douglas (hamstring) listed as questionable. Williams, Stefon Diggs, and Efton Chism are the team's only healthy receivers, with Williams and Diggs the early favorites to earn the start. The rookie has taken on a larger role during the back half of the season, and he impressed with two catches, 46 yards, and one touchdown last week. If he does operate as the No. 2 receiver alongside Diggs, Williams could emerge as a high-volume WR3/flex in deeper leagues. The matchup is certainly on his side, as New York allowed 10 catches, 148 yards, and two touchdowns to Chris Olave just last week.
