Who Should I Start? George Kittle or Harold Fannin Jr.

Tuesday, December 2, 4:36 PM

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle led the team with 67 receiving yards in their 26-8 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Kittle had five targets and tied for the team high with four catches on a day when quarterback Brock Purdy completed just 16 passes. Almost half of his yardage came on San Francisco's last snap of the first half, when Purdy hit Kittle on a 33-yard bomb that set up a chip-shot field goal for Matt Gay before halftime. Kittle finished outside of top-12 territory for the first time since Week 9, but is working on a four-game streak with at least four catches and 67 receiving yards. The 49ers are on bye in Week 14, but will see favorable matchups in the fantasy football playoffs with games against the Titans, Colts, and Bears.

Cleveland Browns rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. was dominant in Week 14 against the Tennessee Titans, hauling in eight of his 11 targets for 114 yards and a touchdown. Fannin has now scored in back-to-back games and continues to look like a draft-day steal for the Browns. The rookie third-rounder leads Cleveland in all receiving categories this season, collecting 59 catches for 619 yards and four touchdowns on 85 targets, and ranks as the TE11 in PPR points per game (11.1). Fannin has established a solid connection with fellow rookie quarterback Shedeur Sanders in his three starts, with Fannin clearing 50 receiving yards for the first time since Week 8. The rookie tight end's fantasy value is on the rise, and he is firmly in the TE1 mix heading into Week 15 against the Chicago Bears.
