Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Tucker Kraft

Wednesday, November 5, 7:35 PM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram has been a tough player to trust in fantasy lineups for the 2025 season, ranking as the TE27 through nine weeks with just one fringe TE1 finish. In last week's matchup against the Broncos, Engram had zero catches on three targets, marking what could be the final straw for fantasy managers trusting in him thus far. The Houston Texans were one of the most difficult defensive matchups of the schedule, so there could be an opportunity for Engram to bounce back against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 10. With RotoBaller having Engram ranked as the TE23 against the Raiders, it's likely best to look for an option with more upside.

Tests on Monday confirmed that Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) suffered a season-ending torn ACL in his right knee in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers at Lambeau Field, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. It's a massive blow to the Packers and fantasy managers, as Kraft was in the midst of a breakout campaign in 2025. The 25-year-old former third-round pick will now finish his third year in the NFL with 32 catches on 44 targets for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight games played. Kraft was coming off a massive seven-catch, 143-yard, two-touchdown performance in the Week 8 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. With Kraft now done for the year, Luke Musgrave becomes a waiver-wire target for fantasy managers in need of help at the TE position. Receivers Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, and Matthew Golden should also see more targets in the passing game going forward.
