Who Should I Start? Luke Schoonmaker or Brock Wright

Dallas Cowboys tight end Luke Schoonmaker (concussion) was not listed on the team's injury report Monday, which indicates that he has cleared concussion protocol and will play in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Schoonmaker was sidelined for nearly two weeks while recovering, and now, he's back just in time for the season opener. The 26-year-old was productive while backing up Jake Ferguson last season, as he caught 27 passes for 241 yards and one touchdown through 17 games (six starts). Schoonmaker should be left on waivers for now, but he would instantly become a high-end TE2 if Ferguson were to miss any games.

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright (ankle) has seen minimal usage in his team's pass game so far this season, recording nine catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns on 11 targets across nine games played. However, the absence of Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (back) could push Wright into a far more prominent role in Week 11 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Wright is also listed as questionable for Sunday's game due to an ankle injury, but he's expected to be able to play. In the lone game that LaPorta missed for the Lions in 2024, Wright recorded one catch for five yards and a touchdown on one target against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 26-year-old Wright has scored 11 touchdowns across 67 career games, but he's never played a sizable role in Detroit's passing game. Even with LaPorta sidelined, fantasy managers should avoid starting Wright in Week 11 against Philadelphia.
