Who Should I Start? KhaDarel Hodge or Tory Horton

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.

Before a shin injury cut his rookie season short, Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton made five touchdown grabs over his final seven games of 2025 while complementing Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba's route-running precision with explosive downfield speed. Perhaps not coincidentally, once Horton was lost for the year, the second half of Smith-Njigba's season, while still dominant, fell off the record-setting pace with which he opened 2025. Seattle made a mid-season trade for speedster Rashid Shaheed, but he wasn't able to recreate Horton's success. With Shaheed headed toward unrestricted free agency, and Cooper Kupp turning 33 before the start of the 2026 season, Horton could be given every opportunity to earn a spot in two-wide sets and is likely to see his value steadily increase as the season nears.
