Who Should I Start? Luke Musgrave or AJ Barner

Friday, January 9, 2:12 PM

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave has not scored double-digit fantasy points in any game this season, failing to register a single reception in four different games, including Weeks 17 and 18. Musgrave was a popular waiver wire add following Tucker Kraft's (knee) season-ending injury in Week 9, but he failed to capitalize on the expanded role, and he should be viewed as an afterthought in most fantasy playoff formats. Musgrave finished the 2026 season with 24 catches for 252 yards and no touchdowns, and he is RotoBaller's TE12 for a Wild Card Weekend that sees 12 teams in action.

Seattle Seahawks tight end AJ Barner has been very quiet in the team's two playoff wins, as he caught just two of his three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship. It was better than Barner's donut for fantasy managers in the blowout win over the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round, but it still was a disappointment. Quarterback Sam Darnold targeted Barner only three times among his 36 pass attempts on the day in a game that featured plenty of offense on both sides. The 23-year-old second-year tight end was the TE14 in half-PPR scoring during the regular season, catching 52 of his 68 targets for 519 yards and six touchdowns, and he remains mostly reliant on finding the end zone for fantasy production. For the Super Bowl in two weeks, Barner could face competition for targets from rookie Elijah Arroyo, who was a healthy scratch on Sunday after coming off Injured Reserve last week.
