Who Should I Start? Mack Hollins or Tylan Wallace

Saturday, December 27, 6:33 PM

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins (abdomen) was placed on the injured reserve on Saturday. Hollins was already expected to sit out in Week 17. The 32-year-old is now done for the rest of the regular season and won't play again unless the Pats make a deep playoff run. The loss of Hollins is pretty significant, considering he has seen 17 targets over the last two games. The absence of Hollins should mean larger roles for DeMario Douglas (hamstring) and Kyle Williams in the passing attack. Fantasy managers should view Williams as a possible deep league FLEX option with Hollins unavailable for the Week 17 matchup against the New York Jets. As for Douglas, he is questionable to play on Sunday but should see an increased role with Hollins and Kayshon Boutte (concussion) sidelined if active.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Tylan Wallace has seen a bit of an increase in snap count since Rashod Bateman (ankle) has been sidelined. The only issue is that the added snaps haven't turned into production since the top targets are still playing. Wallace can be a decent deep threat with his speed, but a lot of the time, the offensive line hasn't given Lamar Jackson enough time for deep routes to progress. In Week 12, the Ravens take on the New York Jets, who rank 13th overall (23rd over last four weeks) against the position. Even with that being said, Wallace is projected as the WR112 in half-PPR leagues, so he's not a recommended start in most formats.
