Who Should I Start? Greg Dulcich or Davis Allen

Miami Dolphins tight end Greg Dulcich was just signed to the active roster on Wednesday, but he could step into an involved role after Darren Waller (pec) landed on IR and Julian Hill (ankle) was also ruled out for Week 8. Tanner Conner is the other tight end on the roster, but has typically split time with Hill, never carrying the main workload by himself. Dulcich could work into the rotation as early as this week, and he does have a little upside since the Dolphins' passing game has been desperately looking for answers due to the injury to Tyreek Hill (knee) and the ongoing struggles of Tua Tagovailoa. Dulcich was a third-round pick in 2022 out of UCLA and spent three years with the Broncos before this season. He totaled 41 catches for 464 yards in his 16 games, and both his NFL touchdowns came in his rookie year. He is an extremely high-risk option this week since his role is completely uncertain, but he looks in position to get his first action of the year, so he's worth keeping an eye on.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen caught one of his two targets for 13 yards and a touchdown during Monday night's Wild Card win over the Minnesota Vikings. Allen had minimal playoff experience prior to this week, playing in just one playoff contest last year. He'll get an opportunity to at least double that total this season as the Rams' win gets them into the Divisional Round next week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Allen typically fills a depth role in Los Angeles, but his touchdown and the injury to Tyler Higbee (chest) could open the door for the 23-year-old Clemson product to earn more snaps and catch more passes.
