Who Should I Start? Cole Fotheringham or Connor Heyward

The Denver Broncos signed free-agent tight end Cole Fotheringham, wide receiver Kyrese White and inside linebacker Jordan Turner after their rookie minicamp over the weekend, according to the team. The team also signed log snapper Zach Triner, who joined the team in April but was released ahead of rookie minicamp. In corresponding moves, the Broncos waived cornerback Kendall Bohler, nose tackle Christian Dowell, linebacker K.J. Cloyd and tight end Thomas Yassmin. Rookie punter Jeremy Crenshaw was placed on the exempt/international player list and won't count against the team's 90-man roster limit. Fotheringham has one career catch with the Raiders and also spent time on Houston's practice squad in 2024. White caught 44 passes for 526 yards and three touchdowns in 12 starts in his final season at Utah State last year. They will battle for 53-man roster spots this summer.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Connor Heyward caught two of his three targets for 16 yards in the team's 20-16 win over the visiting Tennessee Titans on Thursday Night Football. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Darnell Washington caught his only target for a seven-yard gain. Heyward caught a season-high five passes (six targets) for 24 yards in last week's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars with Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) on Injured Reserve, but he couldn't keep up that elevated production in Week 9. Freiermuth will miss at least two more games, but fantasy managers just won't be able to trust Heyward for consistent production in one of the weaker offenses in the league. The 24-year-old has just 14 receptions for 105 yards and no touchdowns in eight games in 2023.
