Who Should I Start? Nico Collins or Breece Hall

Tuesday, November 18, 6:18 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (ankle) should be ready to play on Thursday against the Buffalo Bills after he was listed as a full practice participant on Tuesday. Collins opened the week on Monday listed as limited on the estimated report with a new ankle injury, but it doesn't appear to be serious enough to slow him down going into Week 12 despite the quick turnaround. Even though starting quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) will miss his third straight game this week, fantasy managers should not hesitate to start the 26-year-old pass-catcher against Buffalo. Collins has been a top-10 fantasy wideout in terms of half-PPR points per game (12.6) through 11 weeks of the season as Houston's clear WR1. And he's actually been better the last two weeks with Davis Mills running the offense, catching 16 of 25 targets for 228 yards and one touchdown.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall will get another stiff test this week when his team takes on their division-rival New England Patriots on the road at Gillette Stadium. Hall and the Jets got their second win of the season in Week 10, riding two special teams touchdowns to victory. Despite the offense's struggles against an imposing Cleveland defense, the former second-round pick rewarded fantasy managers who stuck with him, posting at least 100 scrimmage yards and a score in his second consecutive appearance. Hall did most of his damage on a 42-yard touchdown grab, but it was nice to see New York lean on him. That should be the case again, particularly with wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) set to miss potentially a month. The Iowa State product won't have it easy, as New England has yielded the fewest rushing yards per contest (79.2). That said, he's the only playmaker still standing and should benefit from Wilson's absence in the passing game. Hall lands as RotoBaller's PPR RB17 for his matchup on Thursday Night Football.
