Who Should I Start? Mack Hollins or Adonai Mitchell

Saturday, October 4, 10:38 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins already has two touchdowns through four games and will look to build on that total during Sunday's Week 5 contest against his old team, the Buffalo Bills. Hollins has just seven catches for 42 yards this year, playing over 50 percent of the snaps in three of his four games. However, he has still managed to cross the goal line twice, building on a strong 2024 campaign with the Bills that saw him lead the team with five touchdown grabs. While Hollins would have some low-end standalone value by scoring a touchdown, that's impossible to predict or guarantee this week, especially against a Bills defense allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points to receivers. Hollins, 32, has WR3/flex upside, but it's far more likely that he finishes Week 5 off the fantasy radar.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 6 contest on Sunday against the visiting Arizona Cardinals at Lucas Oil Stadium. With Alec Pierce (concussion) returning after a two-game absence, Mitchell will be the odd man out in Indy's receiving corps. The 23-year-old is firmly in head coach Shane Steichen's doghouse after two big blunders in the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams that cost the team the game. Mitchell dropped the football just before crossing the goal line in what would have been a long touchdown catch, and then he was called for holding on a big running play that would have gone for a touchdown. After that rough Week 4, Mitchell has fallen down the receiving depth chart for the Colts and is currently behind Michael Pittman Jr., Josh Downs, Pierce, and Ashton Dulin.
