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.

Miami Dolphins tight end Tanner Conner could suddenly be thrust into a larger role this week for the Dolphins after Darren Waller (pectoral) landed on IR and Julian Hill (ankle) was also ruled out for the team's Week 8 matchup with the Falcons. Conner played about 50% of snaps in the first few weeks of the season when Waller was out, but has had a reduced role since then. He had two catches for 20 yards back in Week 1, and he snagged a season-best 28-yard grab last week against the Browns. He has flashed a little upside, but how he'll deal with all the extra work is uncertain, especially in a tough matchup against the Falcons. Conner is a high-risk, speculative pickup, but his expected bump in playing time makes him worth monitoring and considering as a desperation play this week.
Still trying to decide between Schoonmaker and Conner? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Luke Schoonmaker is projected to score 0.8 points this week while Tanner Conner is projected to score 1.6 points.
