Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Kyle Pitts

Thursday, September 21, 7:59 PM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz is looking to get on track in Week 3 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. It hasn't been smooth sailing for Schultz with his new team through the first two weeks. He has just six catches for 38 yards to begin the season and finished outside the top 25 at the tight end position in fantasy in both weeks. Schultz did see an impressive seven targets in Week 2. But he finished with just four catches for 34 yards in the contest. In a matchup facing Jacksonville's secondary, Schultz is a low-end TE1 option in Week 3.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has continued to be disappointing in fantasy football, catching just four passes for 49 yards thus far in 2023. However, the tight end position is scarce and weak overall, so fantasy managers might just want to ride it out with him and hope a boom week comes. His Week 3 matchup, the Detroit Lions, have allowed the third-most fantasy points to tight ends through two weeks. Against the Seattle Seahawks last week, Detroit gave up nine receptions for 99 yards to the trio of Noah Fant, Colby Parkinson, and Will Dissly. Given the juicy matchup, it's too early to lose faith and bench Pitts in Week 3 fantasy lineups.
