Who Should I Start? Jahan Dotson or Tory Horton

Saturday, November 22, 12:14 AM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jahan Dotson has been an inconsistent contributor in fantasy football this season, and he remains off the fantasy radar in most leagues ahead of Week 12 against the Dallas Cowboys. Dotson turned in a solid two-catch, 43-yard showing last week, but he also has zero catches in two of his last four games. Dotson's floor remains quite low given his role in the Eagles' offense. As the No. 3 receiver in an offense that likes to run the ball, Dotson should only expect a couple of targets per game (at most), and most of them will be contested throws deeper downfield. Plus, his snap share has taken a step backward, as he played fewer than one-third of the snaps in each of his last two games. He is a boom-or-bust receiver who ranks outside the top 100 receivers in fantasy points this season. Even against a susceptible Dallas defense, Dotson is not a safe receiver to rely upon.

The Seattle Seahawks have placed wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) on injured reserve before Sunday's Week 12 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Horton will now be sidelined for a minimum of four games with a shin injury. The 22-year-old rookie has been held out of the previous two games due to this shin injury before landing on injured reserve. The former Colorado State standout has shown flashes in the first half of his rookie season. We last saw Horton reeling in four catches for 48 yards with two touchdowns in Week 9 against the Washington Commanders. The earliest Horton could return this season is Week 16 against the Los Angeles Rams. Fantasy managers with an IR spot can hang onto him in deep leagues.
