What Has Isaiah Hodgins Done This Season?

Hodgins was a sixth-round pick by the Buffalo Bills last year. However, the team needed a roster spot earlier this year and waived the former Oregon State receiver. He was going to re-sign with Buffalo's practice squad until the Giants called.

Since joining New York, the young receiver has played well. Hodgins has averaged 5.3 targets and 9.5 fantasy points per game in eight contests with the Giants. However, he has picked up his play lately.

Over the past five weeks, the former sixth-round pick has averaged 6.6 targets and 12.7 fantasy points per game, scoring 12 or more fantasy points in all but one of those contests.

Should I Pickup Isaiah Hodgins For Week 18?

Last week Hodgins caught four of five targets for 42 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Indianapolis Colts. He ended the game with 12.2 fantasy points. Furthermore, the former Oregon State star has found the end zone in four of the past five contests.

Meanwhile, he has a solid matchup in Week 18 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The NFC East division leaders have surrendered 133.7 receiving yards and 25.3 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season. However, they have struggled to slow down opposing wide receivers lately.

Over the past two weeks, the Eagles have given up 26 receptions for 334 receiving yards, three receiving touchdowns, and 64.4 fantasy points to wide receivers. Furthermore, Philadelphia has allowed wide receivers to total nine receiving touchdowns over the past six weeks after giving up only six scores over the first 10 games this season.

In Week 14, these two teams played in New York. That week the Eagles gave up 13 receptions for 141 receiving yards, two touchdowns, and 34.6 fantasy points to the Giants’ wide receivers.

Hodgins won’t have a top-15 performance in Week 18. However, he is a solid flex option for fantasy players.
