Who Should I Start? Feleipe Franks or Julian Hill

Atlanta Falcons tight end Feleipe Franks caught all three of his targets for 24 yards, most of which came on a 23-yard catch and run that he was able to take in for a touchdown. Franks also caught one pass for nine yards last week and was not targeted in the first preseason game. He was battling Teagan Quitoriano for the third tight end spot behind Kyle Pitts Sr. and Charlie Woerner, and with Quitoriano not receiving a target in the preseason, Franks appears to have a leg up. Unfortunately, third-string tight ends don't have any value for fantasy, so no need to roster him in any leagues.

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's Week 9 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. Hill had been trending in the wrong direction after missing three consecutive practices this week. His absence leaves Miami extra short-staffed at tight end, as they're also without Darren Waller (pectoral). Tanner Conner and Greg Dulcich should step up as the Dolphins' top two tight ends, but neither of them possesses significant fantasy intrigue for Week 9.
