Who Should I Start? Hayden Hurst or Tyler Conklin

Friday, November 1, 4:08 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (ankle) and tight end Hayden Hurst (groin) are off the team's injury report ahead of Week 9. Both athletes haven't appeared in action since being forced from the Chargers' Week 6 23-16 victory over the Denver Broncos early with their respective injuries. It's fantastic news for LA, as wideout DJ Chark (groin) could also be activated off injured reserve this Sunday, meaning Brenden Rice (shoulder) is the only other Chargers' wide receiver to carry a designation. Still, Johnston and Hurst will be tough to trust regarding fantasy output with the emergence of rookie wideout Ladd McConkey (hip). The Bolts will square off against the Cleveland Browns at Huntington Bank Field this Sunday.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has been quiet of late, having caught just two passes for five yards over his past two games. The veteran tight end will look to bounce back against the Indianapolis Colts at home in Week 11. The Colts represent an excellent matchup for Conklin as they are allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. That being said, Conklin is not a major piece of the passing attack for the Jets and he may struggle to get the targets needed to take advantage of this cake matchup. Treat Conklin as a low-end TE2 who is worth a look as a streaming option if desperate in fantasy leagues.
