Who Should I Start? Nico Collins or Drake London

Saturday, December 21, 4:21 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins had a solid but not overwhelming performance at Kansas City, finishing the day with seven catches for 60 yards and no touchdowns in the 27-19 defeat. Houston's top receiver led the team with 10 targets, though Kansas City ultimately was able to limit his damage. Perhaps most important for fantasy managers who advance in the fantasy playoffs this week, fellow Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (knee) had to be carted off with what appeared to be a serious injury. If Dell is indeed out, Collins could command a massive target share with Houston due to take on a struggling Baltimore Ravens pass defense on Christmas Day.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London popped up as a limited participant in Friday's practice due to a knee injury but does not carry an injury designation for the contest and is expected to play. Of course, with fantasy championships potentially in play for some, managers will want to keep an eye out for any news in the event something changes. In Week 15, the 23-year-old scored for the first time since Week 9, however, his outlook is a bit uncertain with rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. making his first career start in Week 16 against the Giants. New York has been decent in limiting fantasy production to wide receivers but have been poor against the run. With Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier in tow, the Falcons would be wise to lean on the run game in this one rather than let the rookie QB air it out, so London figures to be more of a WR2 this week rather than his typical WR1 status.
