Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Hayden Hurst

Monday, September 25, 8:33 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram hauled in seven passes for 67 yards against Houston in Week 3. The veteran tight end led the Jaguars in receiving and target share on Sunday, marking his third consecutive top-ten finish at his position. Engram is still searching for his first score of 2023, but with how bad and unpredictable the tight-end position can be, Engram has risen above the field as one of the most reliable options. Jacksonville's offense has looked sluggish to begin 2023, but Engram has provided a nice floor for fantasy managers as a preferred target of quarterback Trevor Lawrence. He will look to continue his reliable play in Week 4 against Atlanta.

Carolina Panthers tight end Hayden Hurst turned in a slow outing in a Week 2 loss to the New Orleans Saints, catching three passes for 20 yards. He will look to bounce back in Week 3's road matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle has been average against tight ends through two games, allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Hurst is not a focal point in the Carolina offense but he has drawn 10 targets through two games. He sets up as a mid-tier TE2 in Week 3.
