Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Ja'Tavion Sanders

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.

Ja'Tavion Sanders has barely contributed to the Panthers' passing game this season. In six games played, Sanders has 16 receptions for 116 yards while averaging 4.4 PPR Fantasy Points Per Game. Last week against the Green Bay Packers, Sanders caught his only target for five yards. Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints in Week 10, who allow 14.54 points to tight ends, ranking 19th in the league. But Sanders has not shown us any reasons to believe he can take advantage of the matchup. Tetairoa McMillan, the Panthers' top pass-catcher, was limited in Friday's practice with a hamstring injury and is questionable to start on Sunday. Although more targets would be available for other Carolina pass-catchers if McMillan does not play, the fantasy outlook for Sanders does not change much at all. He has not delivered enough results to be worthy of any consideration. Sanders is not rosterable in all formats until further notice.
