Who Should I Start? Charlie Woerner or Brock Wright

The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms on a three-year, $12 million deal with free-agent tight end Charlie Woerner on Monday, according to his agent, Alex Essex. Woerner, a sixth-round selection in 2020 by the San Francisco 49ers out of Georgia, had just 11 catches on 15 targets for 120 yards and no touchdowns in 65 games (seven starts) in his four seasons in the Bay Area, so he shouldn't be expected to do much in Atlanta besides providing insurance at the tight end position behind Kyle Pitts. The 26-year-old is a blocking-first tight end anyway, so when he's in the game for new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, it will probably be to pave the way for running back Bijan Robinson.

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright has recorded nine catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns on 10 targets across eight games played in 2025. The 26-year-old is firmly behind Sam LaPorta on the Lions' tight end depth chart and sees most of his work come as a blocker. However, there's some reason to believe Wright may see the field a bit more in Week 10. The Lions have been struggling in pass protection recently, allowing 14 sacks over their last four games. Additionally, starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder) and swing tackle Dan Skipper (back) are both questionable to play on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Detroit's offensive line issues could lead to more two-tight-end sets and heavier personnel usage, which would benefit Wright. Still, it's hard to imagine he'll be able to provide even modest fantasy production without a touchdown reception in Week 10.
