Who Should I Start? Devin Culp or Gunnar Helm

Friday, January 3, 9:55 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Devin Culp (ribs) was upgraded from a limited participant on Wednesday to a full participant on Thursday. His counterparts at tight end both went from DNP to limited participants, so Friday's practice statuses will determine a lot heading into their season finale. The rookie saw his biggest snap share of the year in Week 17 with Cade Otton (knee) sidelined. If any of the tight ends are forced to watch from the sidelines, Culp should see some extra snaps again after posting 52 yards and three catches against the Carolina Panthers.

Tennessee Titans rookie tight end Gunnar Helm has led the team in targets in back-to-back games, and ran more routes than fellow tight end Chig Okonkwo for the first time this season in Week 13's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Helm has recorded at least five targets in three straight games, totaling 16 receptions for 103 yards on 19 targets. The rookie fourth-rounder ranks as the TE13 in total PPR points during that span. Helm draws a tough matchup in Week 14 against a stout Cleveland Browns defense that has allowed the seventh fewest receptions to opposing tight ends this season. Despite the recent uptick in usage, Helm still profiles as a deep-league option in Week 14.
