Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 8 contest against the New England Patriots. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. The 29-year-old is returning from a one-game absence and should step back into the No. 1 tight end role on Sunday. Through six games this year, he has 23 catches, 223 yards, and one touchdown, ranking as the overall TE20 in PPR leagues. Njoku has 15 targets, nine catches, 95 yards, and a touchdown through two games with Dillon Gabriel, so perhaps he'll find success as a high-end TE2 this week. It helps that he's playing the Patriots, who have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points and eighth-most receptions to opposing tight ends in 2025.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle returned from injured reserve last Sunday and promptly put up a goose egg. It was the first game in his career that he didn't record a reception. Kittle, who was used almost exclusively as a blocker last week, should see his involvement in the passing attack increase, even with Mac Jones (knee, oblique) once again starting in place of Brock Purdy (toe). Jauan Jennings (ankle, ribs, shoulder) practiced in full all week and carries no designation, but Ricky Pearsall (knee) has been declared out, leaving extra targets on the table. In Week 8, the 49ers square off against the Texans, who are allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends and have given up just one touchdown to the position. Kittle is still a must-start, as his abilities as a receiver give him TE1 potential even in a difficult matchup.
Still trying to decide between Njoku and Kittle? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that David Njoku is projected to score 10.8 points this week while George Kittle is projected to score 16.8 points.
