Who Should I Start? KhaDarel Hodge or Chimere Dike

Saturday, November 22, 5:17 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge could be in line for a bump in volume in Week 12 against the Saints as Drake London (knee) is sidelined due to injury, with London's double-digit target volume up for grabs. The team's other back-end receiving options, David Sills V and Casey Washington, will also be vying for targets, but now in his fourth year with the team, Hodge has more familiarity in the offense and with Kirk Cousins. It may not amount to much more than a few catches, as it did in Week 8 when London was absent and Hodge compiled eight targets from Cousins, converting three of them for 31 yards. Managers in deep 14-team leagues or larger and those who play DFS could take a shot on the 30-year-old wideout as an under-the-radar lottery ticket in the event he finds the end zone.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chimere Dike has carved out a steady role in the team's passing game over the back half of the season, offering PPR appeal for owners in Week 18. Dike notched his fourth straight appearance with at least five targets on Sunday. While fantasy managers may gripe about his yardage totals, the 24-year-old has been a helpful asset for most of 2025, ranking as the WR31 since Week 7. Perhaps more importantly, he played only behind teammate Elic Ayomanor in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Saints. If that trend holds, a consolidated target share to the duo and tight end Chig Okonkwo is a strong possibility in the season's final week. Furthermore, rookie quarterback Cameron Ward's improved play has been a boon to the offense overall recently.
