Who Should I Start? Grant Calcaterra or Tanner Conner

Sunday, January 4, 6:53 PM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Grant Calcaterra (ankle, knee) is considered questionable to return for Sunday's Week 18 matchup versus the Washington Commanders. Calcaterra appeared to have suffered multiple injuries while being tackled in the third quarter. Given the Eagles are playing their backups, Calcaterra is unlikely to return in basically a meaningless game for Philly. Before exiting, Calcaterra hauled in two of his three targets for 21 yards and a touchdown. If he doesn't return, Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu would be in line for more snaps during the second half of this game, with Dallas Goedert (knee) inactive in this game.

In the TE3 range for Week 9, Miami Dolphins tight end Tanner Conner should not be considered a starting option when Miami takes on the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football. The fourth-year tight end is playing more with Darren Waller (pectoral) on injured reserve, but isn't earning nearly enough work in the passing game to be relied upon in a fantasy lineup. Despite Waller missing significant chunks of the season, Conner has played more than half of Miami's snaps only once in eight weeks and has yet to catch more than two passes in a game this season. As Miami leans on receiver Jaylen Waddle, running back De'Von Achane, and receiver Malik Washington for the majority of its targets, there isn't enough receiving opportunity for Conner to be a fantasy option.
