In Week 9 against LAC he caught 4 of 9 targets for 105 yards and scored 1 touchdown.

Head to head

This season Xavier Hutchinson holds the bigger snap share, 58 percent against 36 percent.

This season Xavier Hutchinson holds the bigger target share, 17 percent against 15 percent.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 8, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.

What would change the answer

1.3 points a game is the entire case. The market restates it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.

The draft market is the half that is missing: when live drafts hold these two again they can order them differently from the projection, and this page will follow the drafts rather than the market-based projection when they do.
