Who Should I Start? Marcedes Lewis or David Njoku

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.

Cleveland Browns impending free-agent tight end David Njoku said on his Instagram account on Monday that "the time for me to find a new home has come," according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Njoku is set to become a free agent on March 12, one day after the new league year begins. The 29-year-old has spent his entire nine-year career in Cleveland and made it known that he'd love to return to the Browns, but it's not in the cards. The former 29th overall pick by the Browns in 2017 out of Miami took a clear back seat to rookie Harold Fannin Jr. in 2025 and is now expendable. Njoku wasn't a reliable fantasy tight end with the reduced role last season, as he caught 33 passes on 48 targets for 293 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games played. It was one of the worst years of Njoku's career, but a bounce-back could be possibly, depending on where he lands in free agency.
