Who Should I Start? Robert Woods or Bo Melton

Friday, October 18, 9:07 PM

Houston Texans wide receiver Robert Woods (foot) has been ruled out for the team's Week 7 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. It's no surprise to see Woods designated as inactive as he has yet to practice since injuring his foot during a punt return in the team's 23-20 win over the Buffalo Bills. The 32-year-old was expected to compete for snaps in the absence of wideout Nico Collins (hamstring), but Houston will now roll into Sunday's outing down two pass-catching weapons. With them unavailable, the primary wideouts for quarterback C.J. Stroud are projected to be Stefon Diggs, Tank Dell, and Xavier Hutchinson, with John Metchie III and Steven Sims mixing in.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Bo Melton could see a larger role in the offense during the upcoming Week 5 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Melton has mainly served as depth through the first four games of the season. He has one reception on three targets for 28 yards through four games. However, the Packers are without Romeo Doubs (suspension) and Christian Watson (ankle) is considered doubtful for Week 5. That being said, Melton could work his way into the third wideout role behind Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks. The assumption is that the move up the depth chart will mean more targets for Melton. However, Melton shouldn't be considered anything more than a desperation option in deep leagues given he doesn't have much of a track record of success.
