Who Should I Start? Luke Musgrave or Cade Stover

Friday, September 19, 5:49 PM

Green Bay Packers tight end Luke Musgrave potentially has a solid opportunity ahead of him with the Packers heading to Cleveland to match up with the Browns in Week 3. Starting tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) is questionable and could see his workload limited to a degree, so as a result, Musgrave could operate in more of a receiving role than he has over the Packers' first two games. Through the first two contests, Musgrave has a combined three catches for 36 yards while running under 20 percent of routes per dropback in each of those games. It's been a lean role for the former 2023 second-round pick, but he could carve out a little more of a role depending on the severity of Kraft's injury and how the team chooses to manage his workload. That said, Musgrave is far too risky a play for fantasy managers to rely on in Week 3, so leave him on waivers and out of your fantasy lineups this week.

Houston Texans second-year tight end Cade Stover (foot) broke his foot in Sunday's game against the Rams and will be out indefinitely. On a day where the Texans' passing attack found limited success, Stover led the team with four catches, which he turned into 22 yards. After a quiet rookie season, it's unlikely Stover was rostered in many leagues, and that will unfortunately remain the case after one of the best games of his young career. With Christian Kirk (hamstring) still sidelined, the Texans are in desperate need of secondary options in the passing game to take some of the defensive attention away from Nico Collins. The best bet will be second-round rookie receiver Jayden Higgins, who will look to top his two-catch debut; however, behind a struggling offensive line, the Texans' offense as a whole could continue to look sluggish, making Collins the only reliable weekly starter.
