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.

Terrance Ferguson is Stash Option with Return Nearing

Friday, October 16, 6:50 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle) is expected to have a minimal stay on the Injured Reserve. Ferguson landed on the IR ahead of Week 4, so he should be available for the Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Tyler Higbee has been leaned on the most while Ferguson has been out, but he's likely to take a backseat once Ferguson returns. Ferguson recorded six receptions for 54 yards in Week 2. The 23-year-old has big-play upside that makes him worth stashing for tight-end-needy fantasy managers with his return looming.
