Who Should I Start? Mack Hollins or Malik Washington

Saturday, July 19, 8:36 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins (undisclosed) was placed on the active/Physically Unable to Perform list. The wideout agreed to a two-year, $8.4 million deal with the Pats in March after bouncing around the National Football League throughout his career. He appeared in 112 regular-season games for the Eagles, Dolphins, Raiders, Falcons, and Bills, totaling 162 receptions for 2,069 yards and 15 touchdowns. Hollins spent last season in Buffalo, where he had a career-high five touchdowns. He'll have plenty of competition for targets in New England, with Stefon Diggs (knee), DeMario Douglas, Kendrick Bourne, Hunter Henry, and Kayshon Boutte all vying for the attention of quarterback Drake Maye. With that in mind, Hollins may have a tough time being a consistent fantasy producer, although he very well could have a few above-average fantasy outings during the 2025 campaign. Hollins is eligible to be removed from the PUP list as soon as he is medically cleared.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington caught four of five targets for 48 yards in the season-ending 32-20 loss to the New York Jets. The rookie took on a more significant role later in the season with the injury to Jaylen Waddle (knee) and the lack of depth Miami has at the receiver position. In the last four games, Washington saw more targets, receptions, and yards than he had in any stretch this season. Tyreek Hill will surely be parting ways with the organization in the offseason, and he could find himself in a more prominent role when the 2025 season starts. Time will only tell, but the rookie has shown a level of promise that he looks to build off of when the NFL season comes around in September.
