Who Should I Start? Hayden Hurst or Terry McLaurin

Saturday, January 11, 3:09 PM

According to the team, Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hayden Hurst and rookie running back Kimani Vidal are both inactive for Saturday's playoff game against the Houston Texans. Both Hurst and Vidal were not on the injury report but will sit out during the opening game of the NFL playoffs. Hurst has appeared in only nine games this season and averaged a mere 1.4 targets per game. Fantasy managers should expect Will Dissly to operate as the clear TE1 on Saturday afternoon. With Vidal sitting out, fantasy managers should expect J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards to lead the backfield. Dobbins carries RB1 upside in this match, while Hurst should be viewed as a TE2.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quad) could return to the lineup in Week 7, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The former Ohio State star is slated to miss his third consecutive game on Monday against the Chicago Bears, although it appears next week's game against the Dallas Cowboys could be in play. McLaurin has not yet had a breakout week this season after scoring a new contract, but he finished as PPR WR No. 7 last year and figures to be highly involved once back to full health.
