Who Should I Start? Jake Ferguson or Sam LaPorta

Wednesday, November 27, 5:37 PM

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (concussion) will not play on Thursday due to a concussion according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Ferguson will now miss his second-straight contest after sustaining the injury during their Week 11 loss to the Houston Texans. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progress ahead of their Week 14 match against the Cincinnati Bengals. As a result, Luke Schoonmaker will get the starting nod once again. Last weekend, Schoonmaker was productive as he brought in three of his four targets for 55 yards and a score against the Washington Commanders. Schnoonmaker has a tough matchup against the Giants who have allowed the second-fewest PPR points to opposing tight ends this season.

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta caught three passes for just six yards but managed to find the end zone twice in the Lions' 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. LaPorta's touchdowns were crucial for both the Lions' victory and his fantasy output, tying his second-highest fantasy performance of the season. While the volume left much to be desired, his red zone involvement keeps him as a streamable option moving forward. LaPorta will look to retain his scoring streak when Detroit hosts the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.
