Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or Brock Bowers

Wednesday, November 26, 8:56 PM

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (pectoral) had his 21-day practice window opened this week. On Wednesday, Waller practiced for the first time since suffering a pectoral injury in Week 7. The 33-year-old was a limited participant, which isn't shocking given how long he has been sidelined. It's possible that Waller does return this weekend to take on the New Orleans Saints. However, fantasy managers shouldn't be shocked if Waller needs more time to get ready. Fantasy managers will need to check back after practice on Thursday and Friday. If he remains out, Greg Dulcich figures to remain the top tight end for another week.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is a set-and-forget type of player, even in a tougher matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 12. Bowers has been dominant when healthy this season. He returned from a three-game absence in Week 9 against the Jaguars and put up the second-most fantasy points (43.3) in a game this season. The superstar tight end followed it up with a dud performance on Thursday night in Week 10, but bounced back with a solid performance last week against the Cowboys, catching seven of 12 targets for 72 yards. With that performance, Bowers has the most receptions (151) by a tight end in their first two seasons in NFL history, and still has seven games remaining. The Raiders have moved him all around the field in an effort to get him advantageous looks, and he should be in all lineups in Week 12 against the Browns.
