Who Should I Start? Lawrence Cager or Chris Olave

The New York Giants have tons of opportunity at the tight end position this year after Darren Waller's retirement. They are looking to fill the void left by Waller with some combination of Daniel Bellinger, Lawrence Cager (hamstring) and rookie Theo Johnson. Bellinger is likely to be the starter, but Cager or Johnson are likely to be the team's primary pass-catching tight end. Cager started out training camp strong, and head coach Brian Daboll called him one of the standouts in the spring, but a hamstring injury has limited him recently. Johnson has returned after starting camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list with a hip problem. ESPN's Jordan Raanan says it's anyone's job to win this summer. None of the trio of TE options in New York are particularly attractive from a fantasy perspective, but Johnson probably has the most upside if he has a big enough role.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (back) is officially active for Sunday's divisional game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14. Olave dealt with some back spasms late last week but was eventually cleared to play against the Miami Dolphins and finished with four catches on seven targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the 21-17 loss. The 25-year-old was listed as questionable on the final Week 14 injury report, but he will be active again and should be considered a must-start in all fantasy football lineups. Olave ranks as the WR9 in half-PPR fantasy points in 2025 with 73 catches for 781 yards and five touchdowns on 115 targets despite having to work with quarterbacks Spencer Rattler and rookie Tyler Shough. The former first-rounder caught eight of 12 targets for 63 yards in the first game against the Bucs this year, back on Oct. 26.
