Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or George Kittle

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks was waived by the organization on Saturday. The two sides mutually agreed to part ways earlier this week, but the move is official now. The veteran wideout is now a free agent and could draw some interest from teams in playoff contention. Through 10 games, Cooks hauled in 19 of his 25 targets for 165 receiving yards with zero touchdowns this season. The 32-year-old hasn't contributed much the last few seasons, but could still help as a depth option on a playoff team. The departure of Cooks could mean more playing time for Devaughn Vele and Mason Tipton.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle finished Week 11 with six catches for 67 yards and two touchdowns on six targets. His production made him the second-highest scoring tight end in fantasy football for the second week in a row. Even with wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) returning to the lineup, Kittle remained a priority target for quarterback Brock Purdy (toe). Kittle can keep the good times rolling in Week 12, when the 49ers face the Carolina Panthers on Monday Night Football. The Panthers have allowed the fourth-most receiving yards to tight ends this year and are seeing the highest average yards per target to the position. Kittle is one of the safer bets one can make on a tight end in fantasy football, and he should be locked into starting lineups for Week 12.
