Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or Luke Musgrave

Friday, December 5, 8:43 PM

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller is a viable streaming option if you're desperate for a tight end solution this week, as he and the Dolphins visit the Jets. Waller played 47% of snaps last week in his return from the IR and hauled in two of his three targets for a team-leading 47 receiving yards. Waller played three full games before his pec injury and had 10 catches for four touchdowns and 117 receiving yards. The Dolphins haven't been throwing the ball very much in their recent offensive game plans, typically relying on De'Von Achance to do most of the work. However, since Waller showed upside earlier this season, he is worth a look if you need help at the position. He's the No. 11 TE in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, making him a fringe starter in standard-sized leagues.

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave gained 23 yards on his lone reception in Thursday's 31-24 win over their division-rival Detroit Lions. Musgrave was targeted just once on Thanksgiving and has now recorded exactly one reception in three straight outings. It was thought that the third-year pro would assume Green Bay's TE1 duties after teammate Tucker Kraft (knee) went down for the season with a knee injury. However, that hasn't been the case, as TE John FitzPatrick had out-snapped Musgrave in the previous two games before Week 13's win. Moreover, Jordan Love and the offense have leaned even less on the passing game recently, averaging just 25 pass attempts over the last three contests. Despite a decent amount of playing time, Musgrave can be safely avoided for fantasy purposes until the situation around him shifts.
