Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or Hayden Hurst

Saturday, December 13, 7:00 PM

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller hasn't been able to find the same success that he experienced earlier in the season. Since returning from injury, Waller has been held to three receptions for 60 yards over the last two games. The good news is, Waller is heading into a plus-matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15. A defensive unit that is allowing over 16 PPR fantasy points to tight ends this season, according to Yahoo Sports. Waller has proven he is capable of making big plays when he's given the chance. He could be worth a look as a deep league option for fantasy managers who are desperate for help at tight end.

According to the team, Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hayden Hurst and rookie running back Kimani Vidal are both inactive for Saturday's playoff game against the Houston Texans. Both Hurst and Vidal were not on the injury report but will sit out during the opening game of the NFL playoffs. Hurst has appeared in only nine games this season and averaged a mere 1.4 targets per game. Fantasy managers should expect Will Dissly to operate as the clear TE1 on Saturday afternoon. With Vidal sitting out, fantasy managers should expect J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards to lead the backfield. Dobbins carries RB1 upside in this match, while Hurst should be viewed as a TE2.
