Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Brock Bowers

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox could continue to see the bulk of the snap share, as Dalton Kincaid (oblique) remains questionable for Week 8. Despite the increased opportunities, Knox has failed to cash in. The seven-year veteran saw just two targets in their last game, but did haul in a 19-yard touchdown. Knox remains a touchdown-dependent play this week, but with the other weapons on the team, he is hard to trust for fantasy purposes. The Bills will need to limit the Panthers' offense to give the team extra opportunities against a stingy top-10 defense this week.

Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers (knee) has missed the last three games as he recovers from the bone bruise and PCL injury he sustained in the season opener, but according to head coach Pete Carroll, he's expected to return to the field following the team's Week 8 bye. The Raiders are coming off one of the worst offensive performances in recent history, managing fewer than 100 total yards in a 31-0 shellacking from the Kansas City Chiefs, so for multiple reasons, the bye week comes at a good time. Bowers caught five of eight targets for 103 yards in Week 1, but was clearly limited in his next three outings, lacking his trademark explosiveness as he played with a knee brace. Rather than risk further injury, the team made the decision to shut him down until he's fully healthy, and he is now in line to play in Week 9 against the Jaguars. While he may need to work himself back into game shape, he should still be inserted right back into starting lineups, as the upside he offers at the position is practically unmatched across the league.
