Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Harold Fannin Jr.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz (leg) is back practicing at voluntary organized team activities this week after missing the first few sessions with an apparent leg injury, according to the Houston Chronicle's Jonathan M. Alexander. In his second year working with quarterback C.J. Stroud, Schultz disappointed in 2024 with 53 catches on 85 targets for 532 yards and only two touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (13 starts), especially when considering the season-ending injuries to receivers Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee). Diggs is gone and Dell probably won't play at all in 2025, but the Texans added Christian Kirk via trade and Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel in the draft. The 28-year-old is the team's clear-cut top pass-catching tight end, but Schultz could once again struggle for consistent targets on a week-to-week basis for his fantasy managers.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. has been reportedly looking good in joint practices with the Philadelphia Eagles this week. On Thursday, Fannin dropped a potential touchdown pass from quarterback Joe Flacco. However, Fannin responded by catching the next one and later scoring on a corner route. The rumors are that Fannin could line up all over the field, which could give him fantasy value right away in Cleveland. If everything keeps going well, Fannin could very well earn the backup job behind David Njoku to begin the season.
