Who Should I Start? Lucas Krull or Julian Hill

Monday, April 7, 7:28 PM

The Denver Broncos re-signed exclusive-rights free-agent tight end Lucas Krull to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to KPRC's Aaron Wilson. Krull will return for a third season in Denver after catching a career-high 19 passes on 23 targets for 152 yards and no touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (two starts) in 2024. In his first year with the Broncos in 2023, the 26-year-old had only eight catches on 14 targets for 95 yards and his first career touchdown in seven games (two starts). Krull will remain well off the fantasy radar and will head to training camp this summer as tight end depth behind newcomer Evan Engram and Adam Trautman while competing with Nate Adkins. He debuted in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints in 2022 and didn't receive any targets in just one game played after going undrafted out of Pittsburgh.

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill has started each of the first two games for his team this season, while Darren Waller (hip) has been out. With Waller out again in Week 3 when the Dolphins face the Bills on Thursday, Hill will likely get plenty of time on the field once again. He played 51% of snaps in Week 1 and 58% in Week 2. However, all that time on the field hasn't led to any targets. His only contribution has been a successful two-point conversion catch in Week 1. Since he's not getting any looks from Tua Tagovailoa, he's a longshot play in Week 3, coming into the week as the TE45, well off the fantasy radar in all formats, except potentially as a DFS Thursday night contest dart throw.
