2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hutchinson is entering his third year since being a Day 3 selection in the 2023 NFL Draft. He saw more time on the field and targets in his second NFL season, but there were too many playmakers ahead of him. Hutchinson's greatest contributions were as a blocker and a special-teams regular. Houston lost two significant wideouts from the 2024 team - Stefon Diggs to free agency and Tank Dell to injury - but they restocked in a big way with Christian Kirk, Braxton Berrios and two receivers, drafted in the second and third round. Hutchinson's path to a roster spot cleared up significantly when the Texans traded John Metchie to Philadelphia. And his path to playing time Week 1 improved, as both Kirk and Berrios are ruled out with hamstring injuries. Read Past Outlooks

Results don't match playing time
Hutchinson caught one of four targets for 13 yards in Monday's 27-19 loss to the Seahawks in Week 7.
ANALYSIS
Due to Nico Collins (concussion) leaving the game early, Hutchinson topped Houston wideouts with 59 snaps. However, as has happened all too often this year, Hutchinson's snap count didn't translate to meaningful fantasy production. He's second behind Collins in playing 67.3 percent of the offensive snaps, but he has a meager 13-123-2 line on 18 targets through six games.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
Hutchinson began to see regular targets beginning in Week 14 as a rookie. The receiver was pressed into a bigger role when the Texans were dealing with wide receiver injuries. Despite averaging three targets per game, he averaged 1.2 receptions for 9.4 yards. Hutchinson didn't show great chemistry with C.J. Stroud, which could hurt his chances at seeing a prominent role in 2024. With the top-three wide receiver roles being held by high-level players, Hutchinson may struggle to see playing time unless teammates miss time.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be WR3 sans Woods
Hutchinson would be in line to serve as the Texans' No. 3 wideout for Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Chiefs if Robert Woods is unable to play due to a hip injury.
ANALYSIS
Woods has not participated in practice all week due to a hip injury that he likely picked up during the Texans' wild-card win over the Chargers. That could just be out of precaution to ensure the veteran wide receiver doesn't aggravate the injury, but Hutchinson should see an uptick in playing time if Woods is ruled out or operates on a snap count. Hutchinson played 26 offensive snaps in Houston's wild-card win and hauled in his lone target for 34 yards.
