Who Should I Start? Marcedes Lewis or Jake Ferguson

Monday, June 10, 8:32 PM

Free-agent tight end Marcedes Lewis agreed to a one-year deal with the Bears. The veteran, who will be entering his 19th NFL season, played for the Jaguars and Packers before spending last season with Chicago. However, he didn't do much for fantasy managers, amassing just four catches for 29 yards and a touchdown. With Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett on the roster, Lewis should continue to have a tough time getting involved, meaning he won't see much attention from fantasy managers heading into the 2024-25 campaign.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson (concussion) was unable to practice with the rest of the team on Wednesday. Ferguson suffered a concussion early in the Monday night loss to the Houston Texans and was ruled out quickly. Head coach Mike McCarthy said on Tuesday that Ferguson is fighting an uphill battle to clear the league's concussion protocol on a short week to play on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Commanders. Fantasy managers should be putting the 25-year-old on their benches this week while hoping he'll be able to return to play in the annual Thanksgiving game against the division-rival New York Giants. Backup Luke Schoonmaker stepped in for six catches on 10 targets for 56 yards against Houston, and he could be worth a look as a TE2 streamer in fantasy if you're desperate at the position in Week 12.
