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

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram (back) will play in Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals, according to head coach Sean Payton. Engram had been listed as questionable and missed last Sunday's game. It has been an underwhelming start to Engram's Broncos tenure, as he has just four catches for 33 yards through two games while playing fewer than 50 percent of the offensive snaps. The Bengals' defense is known for struggling against tight ends, though, so perhaps Sunday will serve as a get-right opportunity for the former Giant and Jaguar. Cincinnati has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points allowed to tight ends, giving Engram fringe top-12 upside despite his current Week 4 ranking as the overall TE23.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. was a full participant in practice on Friday and is coming off his third straight game with at least five targets and at least four catches to begin the season. His involvement is a solid increase from 2024, when he garnered 13.7 percent target share, compared to this season's 18.3 percent target share. Unfortunately, this year's targets have been of the shorter variety, with a 5.5 aDOT compared to last season's 8.4 aDOT, and he's yet to receive a red zone look in 2025. Even so, with 15 catches for 135 yards (9.0 average), the 24-year-old stands just outside the top 12 in fantasy scoring at the position thus far, and if he's able to find paydirt in Week 4, he'll be comfortably in the top 12 come Monday. Atlanta's Week 4 opponent, the Washington Commanders, has allowed the ninth-most half-PPR points to tight ends through three weeks, and gave up three scores through the air last Sunday (albeit to a WR). In what should be a competitive game, view the 6-foot-6 tight end as a low-end TE1 for Week 4.
