Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku will head on the road to take on the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2. Njoku turned in a quiet performance in a Week 1 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, catching three of his six targets for 37 yards to finish fifth on the team in receiving. He also had to contend with third-round rookie Harold Fannin Jr., who had a strong pro debut, pulling down seven of his nine targets for 63 yards. Despite Fannin's solid debut, Njoku should still continue to operate as the Browns' top tight end going forward. That puts him on the map as a low-end TE1 in fantasy leagues heading into the weekend.

Houston Texans tight end Harrison Bryant didn't play a snap in Week 1 against the Rams since he was on the practice squad, but he's expected to be involved on Monday Night Football against the Buccaneers since Matt Stover (foot) was placed on IR and is out indefinitely. Bryant will serve as the primary backup behind Dalton Schultz, but Stover was very involved in Week 1, playing 57% of snaps and catching all four of his targets for 22 yards. While Schultz will likely get most of that work, Bryant could get a few looks as well. The Texans' offensive line struggled in Week 1, so Bryant could also be used as an extra blocker. He's not a fantasy option yet as just the TE56 in the RotoBaller Week 2 rankings, but it will be worth watching how Stover's looks are divided up this Monday night.
