Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or George Kittle

Thursday, November 27, 9:12 AM

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (pectoral) suffered a pectoral injury during Week 7's loss to the Cleveland Browns and was placed on Injured Reserve, but he had his 21-day practice window opened this week. Waller was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, and it's possible that he could play in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints, though it's more likely that he will need more time. The 33-year-old was impactful in four games for the Dolphins this season, catching 10 of his 12 targets for 117 yards and four touchdowns. The veteran tight end's status will be updated on Thursday and Friday. If Waller isn't activated from IR, Greg Dulcich will remain Miami's top tight end option for Week 13.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle totaled six receptions for 78 yards on 10 targets in a Monday night win over the Carolina Panthers. Kittle led the 49ers in both targets and receiving yards in the win. Outside of zero catch performance in his first game returning from his early-season hamstring injury in Week 7 against the Falcons, the superstar tight end has been as advertised as an early-round pick for fantasy managers. In the other five games, including Monday night, he's racked up 29 catches for 304 yards and four touchdowns on 34 targets, good for an average of 16.6 PPR points per game. The 32-year-old will again profile as a top-three tight end option in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns.
