Who Should I Start? Jake Ferguson or Harold Fannin Jr.

Thursday, December 4, 10:20 AM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson has been a key contributor to his team's passing game all season, and he'll remain a strong starting option in all formats on Thursday Night Football, as the Cowboys roll into the Motor City. Ferguson has maintained consistent volume in the passing game eve with George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb putting up great numbers on the outside. Ferguson has at least four catches in each of his last four games and has totaled 162 receiving yards and a touchdown in those four contests. He is up to seven touchdowns on the season, and he remains a very strong starting option against the Lions' defense, which ranks in the middle of the pack against tight ends this season. In a neutral matchup, Ferguson's volume makes him the No. 4 TE this week in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, so he can be started with confidence in almost all leagues.

Cleveland Browns rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. caught eight of his 11 targets for 114 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 14 loss against the Tennessee Titans. This was the first time the rookie eclipsed 100 marks in his young career, and he set a new single-game high in receiving yards. Additionally, he has strung together touchdowns in back-to-back games for the first time as a pro. The 21-year-old ranks as a top-10 scoring tight end in fantasy football, and he continues to showcase a strong rapport with Shedeur Sanders. Fannin should be started as a mid-range TE1 in all leagues ahead of Week 15 against the Chicago Bears.
