Who Should I Start? Adam Trautman or Stephen Sullivan

Denver Broncos tight end Adam Trautman (core) was held out of mandatory minicamp practices this week as a precaution due to a core-muscle injury. "Just being smart with his reps," head coach Sean Payton said. "He had core-muscle symptoms, which is basically a sprain. He didn't need surgery, so that's the good news. Nothing significant though." It sounds like it's an injury that won't keep Trautman sidelined for the start of training camp at the end of July. The 27-year-old re-signed with Denver in the offseason after catching 22 passes for 204 yards and a career-high three touchdowns in 17 games in his first year in Denver in 2023. Third-year tight end Greg Dulcich (foot) has had trouble staying on the field in his first two years in the NFL, but if he's healthy, he'll be the better bet for fantasy production in 2024 than Trautman.

Carolina Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble (hip) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) are active for Week 14 versus the New Orleans Saints. Both players had been listed as questionable. Neither player is on the fantasy radar this week given their consistently small roles within the struggling Panthers offense. The same goes for Ian Thomas, who is also healthy.
