Who Should I Start? David Njoku or Robert Tonyan

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.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Robert Tonyan has been signed from the practice squad to the active roster on Thursday. Tonyan was cut by the team on Tuesday, but joined the practice squad a day later. Now, the 31-year-old makes the 53-man roster heading into Week 1. He'll serve as depth behind Travis Kelce and Noah Gray to start the season. Tonyan hasn't been fantasy relevant in a few seasons, but did haul in 53 receptions in 2022. He also produced an 11-touchdown season during his time with the Green Bay Packers. Tonyan has shown he's capable of making big plays in the NFL. However, Tonyan won't have fantasy value to begin the season as the projected third string.
