Who Should I Start? Chig Okonkwo or Terrance Ferguson

Monday, November 3, 7:26 PM

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo caught two passes for 10 yards on two targets in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Okonkwo was active despite being limited in practice with a foot injury most of the week. The 26-year-old has fallen short of three targets on two occasions over the last three weeks. On Sunday, Okonkwo was limited to five yards per reception, the third-lowest this season. Okonkwo has only finished as a top-eight tight end once through the first nine weeks and still hasn't scored a touchdown this year. The Titans are heading into a crucial bye week that could lead to changes aimed at improving their offense. Managers should consider benching Okonkwo after the bye week, when the Titans host the Houston Texans in Week 11.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson saw limited playing time over the first five weeks of the season, but his role has increased lately. The rookie has three catches for 85 yards and a touchdown over his last two games, averaging 8.8 fantasy points (PPR) during that span. Specifically, he has emerged as a big-play threat for the Rams. Two of Ferguson's last three catches have gone for at least 31 yards, allowing him to emerge as an intriguing target and chain-mover for Matthew Stafford. It will be tough for Ferguson to carve out a consistent target share behind Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen, and Colby Parkinson, but he has significant upside thanks to his receiving skills and high draft capital. He's a very appealing dynasty stash.
