Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Mark Andrews

Sunday, October 5, 1:36 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku scored and led his team in receiving on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, turning nine targets into six catches for 67 yards and a touchdown. Unfortunately for Cleveland, it wasn't quite enough, as the offense couldn't seal the game and the defense surrendered the lead in the final 30 seconds. The big tight end, however, had his best game of the season with rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who found both Njoku and fellow tight end Harold Fannin Jr. for touchdowns. The Browns' typically volatile QB situation presents risk, but Sunday was an encouraging day for fantasy managers that showed Njoku still can be a productive fantasy player, even alongside Fannin getting targets and a rookie throwing the ball.

After recording just two catches over the first two weeks of the season, Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has 13 receptions for 121 yards and two touchdowns across his last two games. Unfortunately for Andrews, he'll be catching passes from backup quarterback Cooper Rush instead of Lamar Jackson (hamstring), who will miss Week 5 with a hamstring injury. The Ravens also have a tough matchup against the Houston Texans, whose defense has allowed the seventh-fewest passing yards (790) and second-fewest number of passing touchdowns (three) in the NFL. Finally, there's the possibility that Andrews will lose playing time with Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely getting closer to full strength after missing the first three weeks of the season. In Likely's first game in the lineup in Week 4, Andrews played 56% of Baltimore's offensive snaps after playing at least 75% of the snaps in each of the first three weeks. Andrews should be avoided by fantasy managers in Week 5.
