Who Should I Start? Hunter Long or Luke Farrell

Sunday, November 2, 5:19 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Hunter Long (hip, knee) exited during the second quarter of Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. He is officially listed as questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught one pass for six yards. Long had seen increased opportunities recently with Brenton Strange (quadriceps) on injured reserve. With both Long and Strange now sidelined, Johnny Mundt will step up as the Jaguars' primary tight end.

San Francisco 49ers tight end Luke Farrell drew the start in George Kittle's (hamstring) absence in Week 2. He caught two of his three targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in the team's 26-21 over the New Orleans Saints. Farrell may have had the start and the score on Sunday, but his 59% snap share paled compared to Tonges' 78% and was on par with his 58% share from Week 1. With Kittle on injured reserve for at least another three games, there is an opportunity for one of his stand-ins to step up. However, with an apparent timeshare in the works, it's anyone's guess as to who might stand out in Week 3, limiting the fantasy value of both Farrell and Tonges.
