Who Should I Start? Mack Hollins or Kayshon Boutte

Friday, February 20, 9:30 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins has mostly been a journeyman throughout his career, playing for six different teams across eight NFL seasons. The 32-year-old established a consistent role with New England in 2025, hauling in 46 catches for 550 yards and two touchdowns on 65 targets, his most productive statline since the 2022 season. Hollins is known as one of the NFL's best run-blocking wide receivers, which helps him stay on the field despite his limited pass-catching ability. The veteran wideout is under contract with the Patriots for the 2026 season and should continue to play a role with the team. However, New England could look to shift more playing time towards young wideouts Kayshon Boutte and Kyle Williams, both of whom flashed upside at different points in 2025. Even if Hollins sees a significant snap share again in 2026, he's never recorded 60 catches or 700 receiving yards in a season and carries limited upside for fantasy managers in dynasty leagues

For much of the season, New England wide receiver Kayshon Boutte has been one of the Patriots' most reliable big-play threats, even while topping five targets only once all season. The Patriots' offense has struggled of late, and they come into what many are projecting to be a low-scoring Super Bowl LX. Given the circumstances, Boutte is unlikely to volume his way to fantasy relevance, but he has repeatedly shown up at opportune moments, pulling in over 70% of his regular-season targets despite seeing them at an average depth of 17.5 yards. In a game where nobody benefits from leaving potentially explosive plays uncalled, Boutte has a strong chance of making a game-breaking downfield play, keeping him squarely in the DFS conversation.
