Who Should I Start? Dawson Knox or Mason Taylor

With Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) sidelined for each of the last two weeks, fellow Bills tight end Dawson Knox has seen a significant increase in snap share. However, Knox has struggled to boost his production, recording just four catches for 40 yards on seven targets over his last two games combined. Kincaid is now questionable to play in Buffalo's Week 13 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Knox should still be expected to get his fair share of playing time even if Kincaid returns. Still, Knox has recorded just 16 receptions for 195 yards and a touchdown on 25 targets across 11 games this season. Regardless of Kincaid's final injury status, Knox does not profile as a starting-caliber fantasy tight end in Week 13.

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor has struggled to make an impact in recent weeks and is trending down ahead of a home matchup with the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13. Taylor began the season seemingly on the rise as a highly targeted asset in New York's offense. However, even wide receiver Garrett Wilson's (knee) extended absence hasn't been enough for the rookie to crack the startable options at his position. Wilson may be out with a knee injury, but new teammates Adonai Mitchell and John Metchie III have immediately sucked up a sizable target share as the Jets' attack piles up more competent weapons. Taylor profiles to eventually be a reliable fantasy tight end, but the path to that outcome in 2025 is much more narrow at this time than it was earlier in the campaign. The LSU product is RotoBaller's PPR TE26 for Week 13's clash.
