Who Should I Start? George Kittle or Boston Scott

Both San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle and cornerback Charvarius Ward had core-muscle surgery this offseason and will be back, fully cleared, in time for training camp this summer, according to general manager John Lynch. It's worth noting, but for Kittle's sake, it's probably not going to have any effect on his 2024 fantasy value unless he suffers a setback during offseason training. The 30-year-old former fifth-round selection in 2017 out of Iowa has made the Pro Bowl in five of his seven NFL seasons and led all tight ends with 1,020 receiving yards in 16 regular-season games in 2023 while also catching 65 passes for six touchdowns on 90 targets. Despite undergoing offseason surgery, Kittle should be considered a no-doubt, top-five fantasy tight end this fall.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott notably scored at least one touchdown in all eight of his career games against the New York Giants heading into Monday. This streak began in December of 2019 and extended to January of 2023. Unfortunately, his luck ran out in Week 16 of the 2023 season. Scott rushed just one time for three yards and lost a fumble on a kick return. D'Andre Swift and Kenneth Gainwell remain the clear lead backs in Philadelphia, so Scott is nowhere near the fantasy radar.
