Jalen McMillan vs Tory Horton: Who Should You Start?
This is a genuine coin flip on paper. Jalen McMillan finished the 2025 season at 6.0 PPG over 4 games with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, while Tory Horton clocked in at 7.3 across 8 appearances for the Seattle Seahawks. A 1.3-point gap means any given week could go either way.
With a margin this thin, season averages are not the deciding factor. Weekly variables like opponent defense, game script, and injury status carry more weight than a fraction of a PPG. The right start in Week 6 might be the wrong start in Week 14.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jalen McMillan turned 15 targets into 178 yards and undefined touchdowns, while Tory Horton converted 22 looks into 161 yards and 5 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
One scheduling note: Jalen McMillan is off Week 11 and Tory Horton Week 10. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
