Who Should I Start? KhaDarel Hodge or Hunter Renfrow

Sunday, January 5, 7:53 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge should not be considered a playable option despite a possible opportunity Sunday against Carolina. With the Falcons unlikely to have wide receiver Darnell Mooney (shoulder), the Falcons have an opening, but the journeyman receiver hasn't been reliable enough to count on in Week 18. Earlier this year, he one catch against Dallas despite playing 81% of offensive snaps. Hodge has just one catch in the past five weeks total, a rookie quarterback in Michael Penix Jr., and a solid Atlanta running game that figures to be the central part of the gameplan on Sunday. Managers in formats that play Week 18 have better options elsewhere.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Hunter Renfrow has been off to a slow start to begin the season. Renfrow had a breakout performance in Week 2 with seven receptions for 48 yards and two touchdowns. Outside of that, Renfrow has been held to two receptions and 11 yards or less in every game. The return of Xavier Legette this week isn't going to do him any favors. Sooner rather than later, the Panthers are going to lean on their younger players and push Renfrow further out of the rotation. Last week, Renfrow played less than 50 percent of the offensive snaps. He's worth holding in deep leagues, but Renfrow shouldn't be trusted in Week 5.
