Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Kyle Pitts Sr.

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram continues to impress in his first training camp with his new team. The Broncos signed Engram last offseason after he was released by the Jacksonville Jaguars, and he has wasted little time impressing his new team. Offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi said that Engram has "met or exceeded" the high expectations the team had for him when he was signed. "He can run. He can change direction. Willing blocker. He sticks his nose in there. Complete tight end. Guy that's really been showing up in camp," Lombardi told reporters. The Broncos have been looking for a reliable tight end since Sean Payton became head coach and they appear to have found one in Engram. The veteran tight end is set up for a big year and can be confidently drafted as a low-end TE1 in all fantasy formats.

Atlanta Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot said that tight end Kyle Pitts is "as healthy has he's been" in training camp. Pitts dealt with a minor foot injury earlier this offseason but was cleared before the start of training camp and isn't limited in any way this summer. That's good news as the 24-year-old looks to become a bigger part of the offense in quarterback Michael Penix Jr.'s first full season as the starting QB. The former first-rounder has been a disappointment since a 1,000-yard season in his rookie campaign. He caught 47 passes last year for 602 yards and four touchdowns. He's still young, and most fantasy managers are probably avoiding him at all costs, especially after he did nothing special in Penix's three starts to close out the 2024 season. Draft him as a TE2 and hope that the Falcons finally figure out how to use him properly.
