Who Should I Start? Brock Wright or Devin Culp

Friday, October 10, 6:33 PM

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright has just five catches for 37 yards on six targets so far this season, but two of his catches have resulted in touchdowns. The 27-year-old plays a consistent role in the Lions' offense, as he's played at least 40% of the team's offensive snaps in four out of five games this season. However, Wright's primary usage will likely be as a blocker as long as top Lions tight end Sam LaPorta remains healthy. In 63 career games played for Detroit, Wright has recorded 61 catches for 561 yards and 11 touchdowns. Wright and the Lions have a difficult matchup in Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs, who have allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards (999) and the fourth-fewest number of passing touchdowns (five) in the NFL so far this season. Wright should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 6.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Devin Culp (ribs) was upgraded from a limited participant on Wednesday to a full participant on Thursday. His counterparts at tight end both went from DNP to limited participants, so Friday's practice statuses will determine a lot heading into their season finale. The rookie saw his biggest snap share of the year in Week 17 with Cade Otton (knee) sidelined. If any of the tight ends are forced to watch from the sidelines, Culp should see some extra snaps again after posting 52 yards and three catches against the Carolina Panthers.
