Who Should I Start? Daniel Bellinger or Luke Farrell

Saturday, November 15, 9:15 AM

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger (groin) has been cleared from the injury report and is good to go for Sunday's matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Bellinger opened the week with limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday, but was upgraded to a full participant on Friday. The 25-year-old had his highest snap share of the season in the Giants' Week 10 loss at the Chicago Bears at 72.6%, and added one catch for eight yards on two targets. Bellinger has been more involved in the offense of late, playing at least 50% of the snaps in all but one game since Week 5, totaling nine catches for 169 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. His 18.8 yards per reception during that span is the highest among tight ends with at least 50 routes run. In Weeks 1-4, he played over 30% of the snaps just once with three total receptions. Bellinger will be without rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart (concussion) for this game, but backup Jameis Winston has proven capable over the years. Bellinger is only relevant as a deep league option for Week 11 against the Packers.

San Francisco 49ers tight end Luke Farrell had two receptions for 15 yards and a touchdown on two targets in Sunday's 42-26 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The score was Farrell's second of the season, the other coming back in Week 2's tilt against the Saints. His season-long production now stands at 10 receptions for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Farrell's role on San Francisco's offense is limited almost entirely to acting as an extra blocker. Through 10 games, he is averaging just 1.2 targets per game. With so few opportunities, he can safely be left on the waiver wire. He is unlikely to be as productive in Week 11, when the 49ers face the Arizona Cardinals.
