Who Should I Start? Julian Hill or Gunnar Helm

Friday, November 14, 12:05 PM

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill (ankle) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 11 injury report, meaning he'll make his return on Sunday against the Washington Commanders in Madrid, Spain. Hill will put an end to a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, but fantasy managers can continue to look elsewhere. Darren Waller (pectoral) remains on Injured Reserve, but the 25-year-old Hill will be battling for limited targets with Greg Dulcich against Washington. Before his ankle injury, Hill had only 10 catches on 13 targets for 77 yards and no touchdowns. He is still looking for his first NFL touchdown after debuting for the Dolphins in 2023. Fantasy managers desperate at the TE position should be able to find better options on the waiver wire.

Tennessee Titans rookie tight end Gunnar Helm has led the team in targets in back-to-back games, and ran more routes than fellow tight end Chig Okonkwo for the first time this season in Week 13's loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Helm has recorded at least five targets in three straight games, totaling 16 receptions for 103 yards on 19 targets. The rookie fourth-rounder ranks as the TE13 in total PPR points during that span. Helm draws a tough matchup in Week 14 against a stout Cleveland Browns defense that has allowed the seventh fewest receptions to opposing tight ends this season. Despite the recent uptick in usage, Helm still profiles as a deep-league option in Week 14.
