Who Should I Start? Charlie Kolar or Blake Whiteheart

Saturday, November 8, 10:21 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Charlie Kolar has scored a touchdown in two consecutive games, and he'll look to extend that streak in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. The 26-year-old is averaging just 0.8 catches per game this season, but he has three receptions and two touchdowns in his last two contests. The biggest obstacle between Kolar and a three-week touchdown streak is his role on the depth chart. He remains stuck behind productive tight ends Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely. While Kolar has been able to get on the field for more than one-third of the snaps in each of the last four weeks, Lamar Jackson still prefers throwing to Andrews and Likely. Therefore, Kolar scoring a touchdown in Week 10 is far from a lock. He can be left on waivers in all fantasy leagues.

Exclusive-rights free-agent tight end Blake Whiteheart signed his tender offer from the Cleveland Browns on Monday and will officially return to the team in 2025. Whiteheart will head into his second season in Cleveland after catching six of nine targets for 51 yards and one touchdown in 11 games (two starts) in 2024. The 25-year-old once again won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar as he provides depth at the position for the Browns behind starter David Njoku. He went undrafted out of Wake Forest and began his NFL career in 2023 with the Arizona Cardinals, but he didn't receive a single target in two games played that year. In addition to Njoku and Whiteheart, the Browns also have Brenden Bates and Tre'McKitty on the TE depth chart this offseason.
