Who Should I Start? Xavier Hutchinson or Ryan Flournoy

Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson was a non-factor during Thursday's Week 12 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The 25-year-old was not targeted at all in the passing game. Hutchinson rushed the ball once for nine yards in the win. This is now the second time in the last three games that Hutchinson has been held without a catch. There is certainly some potential here, but Hutchinson clearly isn't part of the weekly gameplan right now. He's someone worth stashing in dynasty leagues due to his potential, but isn't someone that needs to be rostered in redraft leagues.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Ryan Flournoy stepped up during Thursday night's loss to the Detroit Lions after CeeDee Lamb (concussion) exited early due to a concussion. Flournoy collected a team-high nine receptions for 115 yards and a touchdown on a team-leading 13 targets. It marks the 26-year-old's second game this season with over 100 receiving yards, with the other coming back in Week 6 against the Carolina Panthers when Lamb was sidelined with an ankle injury. Flournoy's ability to level up with a star teammate out of the lineup is worth paying attention to. His nine receptions and 13 targets in Week 14 are tied for the second-most in a game by a Dallas pass-catcher this season. With Lamb in the concussion protocol, his status for Week 15's game against the Minnesota Vikings is uncertain. If he can't get cleared, Flournoy would be a strong plug-and-play option in Dallas' high-volume passing attack.
