Chig Okonkwo has Limited Upside in Challenging Week 14 Matchup

Saturday, December 6, 5:10 PM

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo hasn't emerged as a consistent fantasy option in his fourth season, recording 39 receptions for 406 yards on 51 targets, and is still looking for his first touchdown through 12 games. Okonkwo has been sharing snaps with rookie tight end Gunnar Helm, who ran more routes than Okonkwo for the first game this season in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Even in a Titans offense that has arguably the worst wide receiver group in the league with Calvin Ridley (leg) out for the season, Okonkwo hasn't emerged as a go-to target for rookie quarterback Cameron Ward. The 26-year-old tight end carries limited upside headed into Sunday's matchup against the Cleveland Browns and should be viewed as a TE3 option.

Brenton Strange's Return Igniting Jaguars Offense

Wednesday, December 3, 10:43 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange has been a major spark for the Jaguars since his return in Week 13. In his last two games, he's hauled in eight of nine targets for 138 yards and a touchdown. After being placed on the injured reserve with a hip injury suffered in Week 5, Strange has reminded Jacksonville how valuable he is. When Strange is active, the Jags are 6-1, and without him, they are 2-3. Despite crowded competition for targets with Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers, Strange has a clear role in this offense and a strong connection with quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The Jaguars host the Indianapolis Colts in Week 14, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to tight ends this season. Fantasy managers can rely on Strange as a starting option in Week 14, who will look to help the Jaguars to an outright lead in the AFC South.
