Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Elijah Arroyo

Friday, November 21, 10:33 AM

Across 10 games this season, Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram has recorded 32 catches for 260 yards and one touchdown on 50 targets. While the 31-year-old's role in the Denver offense as a short-area target has remained fairly stable for most of the 2025 season, he hasn't factored in the red zone and brings almost no explosive ability to the table at this point in his career. Despite earning at least five targets in six out of 10 contests, Engram has yet to crack 42 receiving yards in a game. Denver also has a deep cast of talented pass-catchers between wide receivers Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, and Marvin Mims Jr. The Broncos have their bye week in Week 12 before a Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. However, even in a favorable matchup against the struggling Washington defense, Engram will be tough to trust as a starting fantasy tight end in Week 13.

Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo (knee) is questionable to return to his team's Week 14 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons due to a knee injury. The 22-year-old was targeted once but had not recorded a catch before exiting the game. Arroyo entered the week with 15 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 25 targets across 12 games played in 2025. If he is unable to return, Seahawks tight end AJ Barner would likely dominate playing time at the position for the remainder of Week 14.
