Who Should I Start? Keenan Allen or Breece Hall

Friday, December 19, 10:12 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen remains a focal point for Justin Herbert, leading the team with seven targets in his last outing. However, his fantasy floor is fragile, as he posted a season-low 43.1% snap share and has seen only two red-zone targets in his last seven games. The Week 16 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys is favorable, as Dallas ranks 30th in EPA/Pass and fifth in completion percentage allowed. While the porous Cowboys secondary boosts the outlook for all Chargers pass-catchers, Allen's limited route participation makes him a touchdown-dependent option in an offense that has favored the ground game. RotoBaller has Allen ranked as the WR41 this week. He is a viable deep-league streamer or FLEX candidate in PPR formats.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is coming off one of his worst performances of the season in last weekend's road loss to the Jaguars, but he will look to rebound against a porous New Orleans Saints rush defense in Week 16. The Nebraska native tied a season-low percentage of team plays last Sunday (54%) while totaling 35 scrimmage yards on 14 combined touches. It was a disappointing output for him, even in a less-than-ideal matchup. Despite not missing any time in practice this week while designated with a knee injury, it's unclear if the issue played a part in his Week 15 workload. Fortunately, New Orleans presents as a much more favorable matchup, and he'll have a chance to bounce back against a unit that's yielded 130.6 yards per game on the ground to the opposition (seventh-most). Hall will still be a risky play with rookie Brady Cook under center, but slots in as a low-end RB2, and, officially, RotoBaller's PPR RB18 for this week's slate of action.
