Who Should I Start? Chigoziem Okonkwo or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Sunday, December 22, 6:45 PM

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo caught nine receptions for 81 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Indianapolis Colts Sunday, which was good for most on the team in both stats. Okonkwo set a new season high for targets in Week 16, leading the team with 11-;more than double the next-highest. This surpasses his previous single-game high, 10 last week against the Bengals. Okonkwo is bursting onto the scene late in the year, appearing to be Mason Rudolph's favorite option in the passing game. It's worth monitoring Tennessee's quarterback situation in the future, but if this duo can stick together, it feels very promising for Okonkwo. Fantasy managers can view him as a TE1/TE2 for the rest of the fantasy playoffs. The 25-year-old is on the streaming radar and borderline TE1 in a plus matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 17.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in another great position to succeed in Week 17. The Seahawks will travel to Chicago to face the Bears this week. The Bears started the season as one of the best passing defenses, but they have faltered lately. This matchup is a lot better than the raw numbers would suggest. JSN has been a target hog for several weeks and that should not change in a must-win game for the Seahawks. Smith-Njigba has racked up 1,089 receiving yards and six touchdowns this season. He has scored 18.3 or more PPR fantasy points in six of his last seven games. He is on a complete tear and should be a valuable addition to championship lineups this week.
