Who Should I Start? Tory Horton or Tai Felton

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton (shin) is eligible to come off Injured Reserve for the team's crucial Week 16 divisional game against the Los Angeles Rams next Thursday night, but head coach Mike Macdonald made it sound like Horton could need more time. "It's still a process right now. We got some tests going on, not as we speak, but in the last day or two, and that'll be indicative of how fast we can accelerate everything," Macdonald said. The 23-year-old fifth-rounder out of Colorado State caught all four of his targets for 28 yards and two touchdowns in his last game on Nov. 2 against the Washington Commanders, which might end up being the last game that Horton plays in the regular season in his first NFL season. Any chances of Horton being a fantasy asset to close out the year also likely went out the window when Seattle acquired deep threat Rashid Shaheed from the Saints at the trade deadline.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Tai Felton is still searching for his first offensive snap as Minnesota prepares to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3. The rookie from Maryland has seen the field, but exclusively on special teams, even as Minnesota has needed extra help at receiver with Jordan Addison (suspension) out for the first three games. It's not a great sign for either Felton or the Vikings, who passed on receiver Elic Ayomanor and running backs Cam Skattebo and Bhayshul Tuten, among others, to select Felton in the third round. Felton is a safe drop in redraft leagues, but still a possible taxi-squad stash in dynasty formats.
