Who Should I Start? Brenton Strange or Tyler Warren

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange (hip, quadriceps), who leads the team in catches through five weeks, is dealing with a hip and quad injury that includes a ligament tear, sources tell Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Strange suffered the injury in the Monday night win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Schultz said it's his understanding that Strange doesn't need surgery, but he will be out at least five weeks. It could have been worse, but Jacksonville is going to be without its top TE for a while. The 24-year-old was placed on Injured Reserve earlier this week, which means he'll be out at least four games. Strange was having a nice start to the year before his injury, catching 20 passes for 204 yards, although he hadn't found the end zone. In his absence, the Jags will look to both Hunter Long and Johnny Mundt for production at the TE position. Fantasy managers should be able to find better TE2 streamers elsewhere.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren had a quiet afternoon by his standards in a 38-14 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 8. Warren caught four of his five targets for 53 scoreless yards in the blowout win. The rookie tight end continues to put together an impressive debut season as he now has caught 37 passes for 492 yards while notching four all-purpose touchdowns, as well. Warren has firmly established himself as a rock-solid TE1 in fantasy leagues going forward, a status he will maintain in a Week 9 road matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
