Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Chig Okonkwo

Friday, November 7, 11:59 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has logged 288 offensive snaps this season, the most on the team at the position. However, that hasn't exactly helped his production. In Knox's eight appearances, he's caught only nine passes (14 targets) for 118 yards. He also has only one touchdown, which occurred in the Week 6 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Knox was once a go-to option for quarterback Josh Allen, with the 28-year-old combining for 15 touchdowns in the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Unfortunately, he's regressed significantly since the start of the 2023 campaign, finding the end zone only four times. Granted, the 2019 No. 96 overall pick could have a decent fantasy showing at some point before the end of the year. Still, he's tough to trust, especially if Dalton Kincaid is on the field. With that in mind, Knox isn't worth starting in any fantasy format in Week 10 against the Miami Dolphins.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo caught two passes for 10 yards on two targets in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Okonkwo was active despite being limited in practice with a foot injury most of the week. The 26-year-old has fallen short of three targets on two occasions over the last three weeks. On Sunday, Okonkwo was limited to five yards per reception, the third-lowest this season. Okonkwo has only finished as a top-eight tight end once through the first nine weeks and still hasn't scored a touchdown this year. The Titans are heading into a crucial bye week that could lead to changes aimed at improving their offense. Managers should consider benching Okonkwo after the bye week, when the Titans host the Houston Texans in Week 11.
