Chig Okonkwo Facing Tough Matchup vs. 49ers

Saturday, October 17, 10:09 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo is coming off of his best game of the season in Week 5, catching four of his six targets for 60 yards. Okonkwo had an unfortunate runout to begin his tenure in Washington, leaving Week 1 early with a hamstring injury and then missing the first two games of his career. Then, after returning in Week 4, the 27-year-old tight end played the majority of the game with a third-string rookie seventh-round quarterback, limiting his production. Okonkwo seems to have a solid connection with star quarterback Jayden Daniels, but it will be tested against Fred Warner and the 49ers' defense on Monday night, which has allowed the fourth-fewest PPR points per game to opposing tight ends so far this season. Okonkwo projects as a mid-range TE2 for Week 6, ranking as RotoBaller's TE22.

Dalton Kincaid Looking to Rediscover Early-Season Production

Saturday, October 17, 7:44 AM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid has been remarkably quiet since opening the season with 12 catches for 225 yards and a touchdown across his first two games. Over the following three contests, he has managed just four receptions for 52 yards on seven targets. His latest outing was particularly disappointing, with one catch for seven yards against the Rams despite Buffalo playing without several receiving options. The production has been frustrating, although Kincaid's ability to stretch the field was evident during those opening performances. His 277 receiving yards still lead the Bills through five games, even with the recent downturn. Sunday's matchup against the Raiders provides another opportunity to get him involved, but the lack of dependable targets is difficult to overlook. Kincaid remains a TE1 option, supported by his talent and RotoBaller's TE5 ranking for Week 6, though his recent usage introduces considerable risk.
