Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Chris Manhertz

Friday, November 7, 8:29 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku will come out of his bye to take on the New York Jets on the road in Week 10. Njoku's bye came at a good time as he was dealing with a knee issue before Week 9. The veteran tight end appears to be fully over the issue as he is listed without an injury designation heading into his matchup against New York. The Jets have been average against tight ends this season, allowing the 15th-most fantasy points per game to the position. The Browns could possibly be without Harold Fannin Jr. (hamstring), who was limited in practice on Friday with a hamstring injury. If Fannin doesn't end up playing, Njoku would be a solid mid-range TE1 in fantasy leagues. If Fannin ultimately suits up, Njoku checks in as more of a low-end TE1.

Free-agent tight end Chris Manhertz is signing with the New York Giants, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Giants have Darren Waller and Daniel Bellinger on the roster and signed former Philadelphia Eagles tight end Jack Stoll this week, so the position is getting crowded behind Waller. Manhertz has caught just 26 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns in his eight-year career with the Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Denver Broncos, so he will not be on the fantasy radar in 2024. He is primarily a blocking tight end, and he could be buried on the depth chart.
