Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has registered just one game with double-digit fantasy points this season in half-PPR formats. Even in a game where he received eight targets against the Kansas City Chiefs, he only finished with seven receptions for 30 yards, which comes to a measly 4.3 yards per catch. While Lamar Jackson (hamstring) may be back in this game, it doesn't instill the same confidence compared in past seasons. The Chicago Bears give up an average of 14.62 fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, but they've only allowed two touchdowns to the position all season. Andrews remains in TE2 territory until he can prove to be a big part of the offense on a consistent basis again.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson had a quiet game in his team's Week 8 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, recording three catches for 20 yards on four targets. Johnson has been a relatively consistent producer so far this season, recording 23 catches for 212 yards and four touchdowns on 37 targets across eight games. He's shown a nice chemistry with Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, as all four of Johnson's touchdowns have come since Dart took over as the team's starter in Week 4. However, Johnson's Week 8 dip in production coincided with the return of Giants wideout Darius Slayton, who had missed the team's previous two games with a hamstring injury. Now that Slayton is back in the lineup, it may prove difficult for Johnson to see consistent target volume. Still, Johnson has proven to be a trusted red zone option in New York. He should be added in all PPR-scoring fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams ahead of a Week 9 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
