Who Should I Start? Logan Thomas or David Njoku

The San Francisco 49ers have decided to bring back tight end Logan Thomas on Thursday. The veteran tight end was cut by the organization two weeks ago. Thomas was dealing with an injury in camp, but he appears to be healthy now. The 33-year-old should be a decent option alongside George Kittle at the tight end spot. Last season, Thomas recorded 55 receptions for 496 yards and four touchdowns with the Washington Commanders. He could have streaming value if Kittle does miss any time. Outside of that, Thomas is unlikely to have weekly fantasy value as the No. 2 tight end in San Francisco.

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) remained sidelined from his team's practice on Thursday, per ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. Njoku has not played since suffering a knee injury in Week 14 and may be at risk of missing his fourth straight game in Week 18 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Across 12 games this season, the 29-year-old has recorded 33 catches for 293 yards and four touchdowns on 48 targets. Fellow Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. (groin) has also yet to practice this week as he battles a groin injury, so Cleveland could be without its top two players at the position on Sunday. If both Njoku and Fannin Jr. are unable to go, Browns tight ends Blake Whiteheart, Brenden Bates, and Sal Cannella would likely share playing time in Week 18 against the Bengals.
