Who Should I Start? Charlie Kolar or Gunnar Helm

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.

Tennessee Titans rookie tight end Gunnar Helm (toe) has been ruled out of Sunday's Week 18 divisional matchup with the Jaguars. Helm was unable to practice this week with the toe injury that he ultimately played through following a week of limited practice participation in Week 17. The fourth-round pick out of Texas finishes his rookie year with 44 receptions for 357 yards and two touchdowns, and is a potential dynasty target this offseason. With Helm sidelined, fourth-year tight end Chig Okonkwo, fresh off back-to-back top-five finishes, becomes a must-start for fantasy managers still competing for a Week 18 championship.
