Who Should I Start? Harrison Bryant or Jelani Woods

Wednesday, March 13, 5:12 PM

Former Cleveland Browns tight end Harrison Bryant reached an agreement with the Las Vegas Raiders on Wednesday on a one-year, $3.25 million deal with a maximum value of $4 million, according to a source. Bryant was a fourth-round selection by the Browns in 2020 out of Florida Atlantic. The 25-year-old hasn't been on the fantasy radar at all, really, totaling 89 catches on 128 targets for 791 yards and 10 total touchdowns in his four seasons in Cleveland. With the move to Vegas, he'll be expected to serve as the No. 2 tight end behind second-year man Michael Mayer now that Austin Hooper moved on in free agency. In 17 regular-season games (nine starts) for the Browns in 2023, Bryant had a career-low 13 receptions for 81 yards and three touchdowns while working behind David Njoku.

The Indianapolis Colts can't commit to tight end Jelani Woods (hamstring) being able to return this season. Woods has had multiple hamstring injuries since training camp and hasn't appeared in a game in 2023. The 25-year-old caught 25 passes on 40 targets for 312 yards and three touchdowns as part of a committee approach at tight end in Indy in his rookie campaign, but he hasn't been able to contribute at all this year because of his hamstring injuries. Without Woods in the fold, the Colts continue to employ a committee approach among Kylen Granson, Drew Ogletree, Mo Alie-Cox and Will Mallory. Granson probably has the most upside of the bunch, but fantasy managers should be avoiding this TE situation at all costs.
