Who Should I Start? Brenton Strange or Elijah Arroyo

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange has been inconsistent, but he has a chance to be serviceable against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 17. Strange hasn't been the most targeted, but since returning from injury in Week 12, he has had decent involvement in the Jaguars thriving offense. He did manage 93 yards in Week 12 and a touchdown each in Weeks 13 and 16, but his overall season numbers don't stand out in any way. However, in a plus matchup and a week with plenty of injured tight ends, Strange is certainly startable. Fantasy managers can do better, but can also do much worse than Strange, who might be an injury replacement for injured studs Brock Bowers (knee) and George Kittle (ankle) for numerous fantasy managers in their Week 17 fantasy championships.

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo has been placed on injured reserve ahead of Seattle's Week 15 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Arroyo was placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury that forced him to exit early in their Week 14 win in Atlanta. The 22-year-old rookie has played in 13 games this season, catching 15 passes for 179 yards and one touchdown. Arroyo was selected in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft after garnering a lot of hype during the predraft process. With Arroyo landing on injured reserve, expect Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup to see more work in the Seahawks offense for the remainder of the regular season. The move will end Arroyo's regular-season rookie campaign, but he can return for the playoffs.
