Who Should I Start? Gabe Davis or Kayshon Boutte

Saturday, December 13, 9:54 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has played in four games with the team this season after spending time on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury earlier in the season. Davis has played 53.8% of the offensive snaps, second-highest among Bills wideouts behind Khalil Shakir in that time, and has compiled seven receptions for 88 yards on 10 targets. The 26-year-old receiver is a trusted veteran who knows the Bills' offensive system and is a reliable blocker in the running game, which has earned him the right to be on the field more often than not. The floor for production isn't high for Davis in a spread-out and low-volume Bills passing attack, though, and he profiles as a deep-league flex option in Week 15 against the New England Patriots.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said that wide receiver Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) is questionable to play in the Wild-Card playoff matchup on Sunday night against the visiting Los Angeles Chargers, according to Mark Daniels of Mass Live. Boutte popped up on the injury report this week on Thursday with a hamstring, which could keep him from suiting up this weekend. Already a pretty shaky WR4/flex option for those in fantasy playoff leagues, the 23-year-old is now definitely a player to fade in the first round of the playoffs. Boutte was not among the top-50 wideouts during the regular season in terms of half-PPR points per game. He did have six touchdowns on the year, but he added a modest 33 receptions on 46 targets for 551 yards in 14 games. If Boutte doesn't play, both DeMario Douglas and rookie Kyle Williams will become slightly more intriguing as sleeper plays at WR against the Bolts.
