Who Should I Start? Hunter Renfrow or Tory Horton

Wednesday, July 30, 1:05 PM

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow (hamstring) was held out of training camp practice on Wednesday with a hamstring injury that isn't considered serious. Head coach Dave Canales said that Renfrow told him he could have played this week if needed. The 29-year-old former fifth-rounder by the Raiders in 2019 out of Clemson missed the entire 2024 season due to health issues but is now hoping to bounce back in 2025 in a depth role for the Panthers. He was a Pro Bowler in 2023 and had 1,038 receiving yards and nine touchdowns on 103 receptions, but he caught just 61 passes for 585 yards and two scores in 2022 and 2023 combined as he began to do deal with health issues. Renfrow could be more productive now that he's healthy, but he's off the fantasy radar while working behind Tetairoa McMillan, Adam Thielen, Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton "continues to flash in practice," according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. A fifth-round draft pick out of Colorado State, Horton recorded 265 catches for 3,615 yards and 27 touchdowns across five collegiate seasons. The Seahawks have Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp entrenched as their top two wide receivers, and veteran free-agent addition Marquez Valdes-Scantling is penciled in as a starter on the outside. That leaves Horton fighting with the likes of Jake Bobo, Steven Sims, and Dareke Young for a depth role in Seattle. While Horton is unlikely to make an impact in fantasy right away, he could be a name to monitor if he continues to impress throughout the preseason.
