Who Should I Start? Kayshon Boutte or Dareke Young

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte was unproductive during Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills, tying his season low with one target in the defeat. The third-year wideout has hit a slump over the last few weeks. Boutte hasn't surpassed 35 receiving yards in a game since Week 8. The good news is that Boutte is heading into a plus matchup against the Baltimore Ravens defense in Week 16. The expectation is that the Patriots should have more success passing the ball in that one. Boutte isn't a high-end streaming option, but he should offer deep-league appeal in a flex spot. He has hauled in six touchdowns and is one of the better red-zone threats in this offense. Fantasy managers should expect a bounce-back outing from the 23-year-old this weekend.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Dareke Young caught three of his four targets for a team-high 44 receiving yards in Saturday's 16-3 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. The 2022 draftee's catch and target totals also tied for most on the team. He was also involved in Seattle's longest play of the game. Tucked in close to the Seahawks' line, Young was marked only by a linebacker who he easily outran while crossing over the middle. Once open, Sam Howell fired a dart to Young for a gain of 26 yards. Young showed good hands in the game but he is not a viable fantasy option.
