Who Should I Start? Adam Shaheen or Noah Fant

Monday, October 30, 11:24 PM

While dealing with injuries at the position, the Buffalo Bills worked out former Chicago Bears tight end Adam Shaheen on Monday. Dawson Knox (wrist) is currently on Injured Reserve and will miss at least three more games. Shaheen was with the Miami Dolphins last year, but he didn't play at all due to a knee injury that landed him on Injured Reserve. The 29-year-old former second-round pick by the Chicago Bears hasn't played in an NFL since 2021, when he had 12 receptions on 16 targets for 110 yards and no touchdowns in 12 games (seven starts). Shaheen will remain well off the fantasy radar, even if he's signed by Buffalo. Rookie Dalton Kincaid had a big game in last Thursday night's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and will have TE1 upside moving forward with Knox on the shelf.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant caught two of his three targets for 28 yards and a touchdown in a thrilling 47-42 loss against the Chicago Bears in Week 9. Fant caught his third touchdown of the season and has now recorded multiple receptions in four straight games. Fant had little involvement in this game despite it being one of the highest scoring games we will see all season. Since posting a season high 73.5% route share in Week 7, the 27-year-old has dipped to 33.3% and 44% in each of the past two weeks. The targets in Cincinnati's offense are heavily consolidated around the top two wideouts in Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase, and with Fant's route share being limited in back-to-back games, fantasy managers should likely look elsewhere if searching for a streamer at tight end for Week 10.
