Who Should I Start? Jonnu Smith or Ricky Seals-Jones

Saturday, October 25, 1:46 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith found the end zone last week and should stay involved when facing the Green Bay Packers in Week 8. Despite the return of wide receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder), Smith carries some upside as a pass-catcher in this matchup, with Green Bay surrendering the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. Still, both Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington also played well in Week 7, making it difficult to rely on any of the three for fantasy purposes. Smith is the best bet to produce, however, as the team leader in targets and snaps at the position. While he can be started in a pinch, the veteran is best viewed as a middling TE2 this week.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Ricky Seals-Jones (foot) was carted off the field during practice on Thursday. The 28-year-old appears to have suffered a right foot injury, but the severity of the injury is unknown right now. Seals-Jones signed with the Colts earlier this month and is fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster. He didn't play at all last season and was released with an injury settlement before the beginning of the 2022 campaign. The team should give an update on his status shortly.
