Who Should I Start? Cole Kmet or Mason Taylor

Friday, November 7, 4:30 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (concussion) and running back Roschon Johnson (back) have both been cleared from the injury report and are good to go for Sunday's matchup against the New York Giants. Kmet suffered the concussion during Chicago's Week 9 win at Cincinnati and won't miss any additional time after clearing the league's concussion protocol and practicing in full on Thursday and Friday. Rookie tight end Colston Loveland broke out for 118 yards and two touchdowns in his absence, and will likely eat into Kmet's snaps moving forward. Johnson, on the other hand, missed time at the beginning of the season with a foot injury and has been sidelined for the past two games with a back injury. The 24-year-old practiced in full on Friday and appears set to make his return as the Bears' RB3 behind D'Andre Swift and rookie Kyle Monangai in Week 10.

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor is ready to go for this Sunday's meeting with the visiting Cleveland Browns after a full week of practice. The 21-year-old headed into the team's bye week battling a quad issue, but he's all healed up for a clash with a staunch Browns' defense in Week 10. Taylor has dealt with inconsistencies this season, but has drawn a ton of targets in a Jets' offense bereft of weaponry. The addition of former Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is sure to draw some looks away from the LSU product. However, the two figure to operate in different areas of the field, and it's unclear if Mitchell will play this weekend. Cleveland isn't a very friendly matchup in any aspect, although they've been more forgiving to tight ends over recent weeks. Either way, Taylor should work as a top two option, whether it's quarterback Tyrod Taylor or Justin Fields calling signals. The rookie is RotoBaller's PPR TE21 for his outing with Cleveland.
