Chig Okonkwo News
Saturday, October 31, 8:22 PM
Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo has put together two straight viable performances and could be a nice add for tight-end-needy teams coming out of his Week 7 bye. Okonkwo quietly led Washington in targets (13), receptions (11), and yards (129) in their two games prior to a week off, and should continue to see a reliable target share with wide receiver Terry McLaurin (knee) missing the remainder of the campaign. The former Tennessee Titan will have to contend with veteran wideout Stefon Diggs and rookie Antonio Williams for targets, although neither is out there on as many snaps as him. Moreover, Okonkwo appears to be developing some chemistry with quarterback Jayden Daniels, and offers nice upside in the YAC department. He'll get a boost this week against a Philadelphia Eagles defense that's currently a bottom-seven unit in the league against the pass (239.9 yards per game).

Colston Loveland News
Monday, November 2, 10:08 PM
Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland caught seven passes for 65 yards on nine targets in a 34-17 win over the hosting Seattle Seahawks in Week 8. Monday marked the second straight game in which the former Michigan Wolverine led or tied for the team lead in targets, and it was the fourth time in his last five that he'd recorded at least six grabs. Loveland's fourth-quarter fumble is the only ding on his ledger in an otherwise strong outing against an imposing Seattle defense. Back in fantasy managers' good graces after a string of recent success, the Washington native -- along with the rest of Chicago's attack -- is on an upward trajectory. They'll face one more formidable test on defense in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers next Sunday night before a bye in Week 10.
