Hixon's numbers have been in steady decline since hauling in six receptions for 114 yards in Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles. He was held without a reception on just one target in 18 snaps in Week 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Fantasy Impact: It sounds like Hixon will be able to suit up for Monday night's game against the Washington Redskins, but after a big Week 4 prompting a flurry of waiver wire activity, he simply hasn't been fantasy relevant this season. While a bad Redskins secondary should be a prime matchup, you should leave Hixon on your bench, or on waivers altogether this week.
