Jonnu Smith Has Opportunity to Rebound on Thursday Night

Wednesday, October 15, 9:43 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith has seen underwhelming utilization through his first five games with the team but will look to make a bigger impact against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7. The Bengals have given up the second-most targets and the most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends this year, leaving the door open for Smith to produce on Thursday night. Although he played behind Darnell Washington in Week 6, it was encouraging to see his snap share rebound to nearly 70% after logging just 25% in his previous game. With wide receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder) sidelined again, Smith could earn a handful of looks from Aaron Rodgers. While he can't be started with any real confidence, the 30-year-old offers some upside to desperate fantasy managers this week.
