Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Mike Gesicki

Friday, November 14, 11:35 PM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram had high expectations from fantasy managers heading into the 2025 campaign, although it's safe to say he hasn't delivered. Most assumed that a change of scenery would benefit him. Head coach Sean Payton also led many to believe Engram would hold a pivotal role on the offensive side of the ball. However, that hasn't happened, with the 31-year-old catching 28 passes for 227 yards and one touchdown in nine appearances. With some time left before the end of the regular season, Engram has a chance to turn things around, but, until that happens, he has no business being in fantasy lineups. Keep him on the bench for the Week 11 AFC West clash with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) has been making positive progress in his recovery from a pectoral injury suffered in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. Gesicki was placed on Injured Reserve following that game and is now entering the fourth game he was required to miss on IR, but should have a good chance of returning in Week 12 versus the Patriots. The 30-year-old was having a quiet start to the year before going down, catching eight of 16 targets for 61 yards in six games. Noah Fant has mostly filled in as the Bengals' tight end with Gesicki sidelined, and he's been a solid contributor, recording 13 catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns since Week 6. Fant will again be a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in Week 11 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
