Who Should I Start? Darnell Washington or Jack Stoll

Sunday, December 14, 12:19 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington (concussion) has been cleared from the league's concussion protocol and has been upgraded to active for the Monday night contest against the visiting Miami Dolphins to close out Week 15 action, according to director of communications Burt Lauten. Washington was initially listed as questionable on the team's final injury report on Saturday, but he has since been cleared by an independent neurologist and will play against Miami. The 6-foot-7, 264-pounder should be treated as TE3 in fantasy despite his growing role in recent weeks. Washington has caught five of his seven targets for 79 yards in the last three games, but having to contend for targets with fellow TEs Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith every week makes him too hard to trust as a starter in fantasy.

New Orleans Saints tight end Jack Stoll was elevated from the practice squad ahead of the Week 1 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Stoll was brought back to the practice squad after failing to make the 53-man roster. Now, Stoll will head to the active roster as depth behind Juwan Johnson and Moliki Matavao. The 27-year-old has been barely involved on the field over the last two seasons. Stoll has a total of seven receptions over the last two years. He'll serve as depth for Sunday's contest, but won't offer any fantasy value.
