Who Should I Start? Marcedes Lewis or Dallas Goedert

Saturday, December 6, 6:24 PM

Denver Broncos tight end Marcedes Lewis was signed from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of the Week 14 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Lewis has been elevated three times, so he must be signed to the active roster if the team wishes to keep him. The 41-year-old will now stick on the active roster for the rest of the season. At this point in his career, Lewis is basically depth and an extra blocking option. He hasn't finished with more than six receptions in a single season since the 2021 campaign with the Green Bay Packers. Lewis can be ignored in all fantasy formats going forward.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert has totaled his most receptions in a two-game window this season in the past two weeks, following up an eight-catch game against the Chargers with six more against the Raiders. After a lengthy slump, Goedert has stepped his game back up lately, also breaking his five-game scoring drought versus Las Vegas. On Saturday, he's up against a Commanders defense that allows the fourth-most fantasy points to tight ends this season. Just last week, the Giants' leading receiver against Washington was TE Theo Johnson who racked up 72 yards. It seems like a perfect storm for Goedert as his involvement has ramped up; he was the only Eagles player to have more than three targets in their most recent contest, finishing with seven. As fantasy playoffs continue, consider him a low-end TE1 in Week 16.
