Darren Waller News
Sunday, November 8, 1:29 PM
Carolina Panthers tight end Darren Waller was a major factor in the offense during Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Denver Broncos. Heading into this game, Waller had two receptions for 61 yards over his last three games. The 34-year-old was able to have much more success on Sunday. He hauled in eight of his 10 targets for 90 yards and a touchdown in the loss. Both the receptions and yardage were season highs for Waller. It was odd to see Waller get double-digit targets after seeing a combined six over his previous three games. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect this kind of success to continue, but he'll hopefully remain a consistent option against the New Orleans Saints next week.

T.J. Hockenson News
Saturday, November 7, 9:41 AM
Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson can be considered a starting option when his team plays the Week 9 finale against the Buffalo Bills. While the numbers for most of the Minnesota offense have been ghastly, the former Iowa Hawkeye has produced fairly consistently this season. Hockenson has ranked inside the top 10 among PPR tight ends in three of the past four games, and the only misfire was the result of a first-quarter concussion that forced him out of the game. Minnesota is making a change at quarterback now that Kyler Murray (hamstring) has been ruled out, turning to backup Carson Wentz. That shouldn't change the outlook for the tight end, who caught a touchdown from Wentz in Week 1 and saw at least five targets from him in four of the journeyman's five starts last season. As RotoBaller's No. 10 tight end this week, Hockenson is playable in all formats.
