Who Should I Start? Harrison Bryant or Jackson Hawes

Friday, September 19, 10:47 PM

Houston Texans tight end Harrison Bryant played 39% of the team's snaps in Week 2 and should remain involved this week as the team's primary backup to Dalton Schultz. Bryant was re-signed from the team's practice squad after Cade Stover (foot) was placed on injured reserve before Week 2. He finished with no catches on one target against the Bucs and will probably not be heavily involved in the team's passing attack in Week 3. He's the TE55 in RotoBaller's rankings this week, meaning he is unlikely to make a significant fantasy impact.

Buffalo Bills rookie tight end Jackson Hawes could see a small uptick in opportunities if Dalton Kincaid (oblique) is ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup against Atlanta. The fifth-round pick has appeared in every game this season but has been used sparingly in the passing game, seeing just four targets through five weeks--hauling in all of them. While Hawes' strong blocking skills have earned him steady snaps, he remains a distant option in Buffalo's offensive pecking order. Even with a potential increase in playing time, his fantasy value is negligible, and he should be avoided in all formats unless his role expands dramatically in the coming weeks.
