Brenton Strange News
Thursday, November 5, 5:43 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange serves as a borderline TE1 in Week 9 against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens rank 19th against tight ends in fantasy, and the game overall should be high scoring for the Jaguars. The young tight end hasn't quite had a breakout performance in what has been an interesting season for the Jacksonville passing attack. The rushing attack and defense were the main reasons for their 42-7 win over the Indianapolis Colts last week, which led to Strange finishing with just two catches for 55 yards. Funnily enough, that tied with running back Bhayshul Tuten for top on the team. In what could be a second straight blowout against the Lamar Jackson-less Ravens, the team's passing stats may look similar. Strange has surprisingly only found the end zone once all season, which came back in Week 1, which is another concern. However, in a plus matchup on a potent offense facing a vulnerable defense, Strange has enough upside to be on the streaming radar in Week 9.

Mason Taylor News
Saturday, November 7, 6:49 AM
New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor (back) has drawn at least 5 targets in three straight games and could see more work Sunday at Kansas City with Garrett Wilson (concussion) out. Taylor practiced fully Thursday and Friday after being limited Wednesday and carries no game designation. His 5 catches for 62 yards and 2 touchdowns against Miami in Week 7 were followed by 3 catches for 19 yards against Las Vegas. The Chiefs have allowed 48 catches, 459 yards and 5 touchdowns to tight ends in seven games, a matchup that puts Taylor in play as a streamer in 12-team PPR leagues. Denver tight ends Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins combined for 4 catches, 34 yards and a touchdown against Kansas City in Week 8, while Evan Engram went catchless on 3 targets. New York also rotates at the position. Taylor drew 5 targets to Kenyon Sadiq's 2 against Las Vegas, but their playing time was closer, with Taylor logging 39 offensive snaps and Sadiq playing 31. That target edge gives Taylor a better chance to help PPR managers even if the two continue to share playing time.
