Who Should I Start? Logan Thomas or Dawson Knox

Thursday, August 22, 6:15 PM

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.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox found the end zone for the first time this year in Monday night's 24-14 loss to the Falcons. He only had one catch on his two targets, but made it count for a 19-yard score. Knox was in a more prominent role with Dalton Kincaid out. Kincaid was originally listed as questionable due to an oblique injury, but was ruled out before kickoff. Knox has been getting decent playing time but not a ton of targets this season. After Monday's game, he has seven catches for 73 yards in his six games, but he could be a deep league option if Kincaid isn't able to return after the Bills' bye week. Knox has shown he can contribute when in a larger role, but his targets are typically limited when Kincaid is healthy. Since Buffalo is headed to its bye in Week 7, the waiver wire probably has better options available for a short-term solution in most leagues.
