Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Luke Musgrave

Friday, November 22, 5:52 AM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku caught one of his five targets for nine yards and added a two-point conversion in a 24-19 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12's Thursday night game. Njoku was held in check on a cold, snowy evening in Cleveland despite tying for second on the team with his five targets. It could have been a better game for Njoku, who got wide open but dropped an easy touchdown pass in the end zone in the second half, although the Browns were able to bounce back and get a short Jameis Winston rushing touchdown on the ensuing play. Njoku will remain locked in as a TE1 in fantasy heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Denver Broncos.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that tight end Luke Musgrave (ankle) underwent ankle surgery. "He will hopefully be back later this season," LaFleur said. Musgrave was placed on Injured Reserve on Oct. 11 due to his ankle injury, but barring a setback in his recovery, he'll have a chance to return to the team later this season. The 24-year-old quickly took a back seat to fellow TE Tucker Kraft as a pass-catcher in the early portion of 2024 before injuring his ankle. The second-round pick in 2023 out of Oregon State had five catches for 22 yards in four games before getting hurt after putting up a 34-352-1 line in 11 regular-season games in his rookie campaign. When Musgrave returns later this season, he'll most likely go back to playing second fiddle to Kraft. Fantasy managers in single-year leagues can continue to ignore him.
