Jonnu Smith Becoming a Cut Candidate

Friday, December 5, 9:51 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith has been extremely quiet on the field outside of his nine receptions through the first two games of the season. It has become much worse of late, with Smith posting some games with less than 10 receiving yards. Over the last four games, he has finished with one catch or fewer in three of them. The Steelers have too many tight ends to feed them all consistently. At this point, Smith has fallen behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington in the pecking order at the position. Smith is unlikely to have much success against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 14. None of these tight ends should be viewed as consistent options, but Smith is by far the worst of the bunch.

Elijah Arroyo in Jeopardy of Missing Week 15

Monday, December 8, 7:00 PM

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo (knee) could miss the Week 15 game against the Indianapolis Colts this Sunday after injuring his knee in Sunday's blowout win over the Atlanta Falcons, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. "This week's probably in jeopardy for him," head coach Mike Macdonald said. The 22-year-old second-rounder out of Miami was unable to haul in his only target against Atlanta before leaving the game. Arroyo has pretty much only been stash-worthy in dynasty/keeper fantasy leagues this year, as he has only 15 catches for 179 yards and one touchdown on 26 targets in his first 13 NFL games. If Arroyo cannot play in a solid matchup against Indy this weekend, fellow TE AJ Barner will have more streaming value as Seattle's top pass-catching tight end in Week 15.
