Who Should I Start? Mark Andrews or Tyler Conklin

Saturday, October 11, 10:22 AM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has accrued two games with seven or more fantasy points, and only one of those equated to a TE1 finish. His best game was in the Week 3 loss with Lamar Jackson (hamstring) at the helm. In his first game with Cooper Rush behind center and Isaiah Likely in the mix, Andrews posted two catches for 11 yards on three targets. Despite the fact that the Los Angeles Rams are 19th against opposing tight ends, Andrews has a major uphill battle with how abysmal this offense has looked with Rush. The veteran tight end is projected as a low-end TE2 heading into this matchup, so fantasy managers may want to look for some better options.

Former New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin reached an agreement on an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Conklin heads to the AFC West after spending the last three years with the Jets, where he had 170 catches on 246 targets for 1,622 yards and seven touchdowns in 50 games (43 starts). While the 29-year-old did have a career-high four touchdowns in 16 games (15 starts) last year, he had just 51 catches and 449 yards (his lowest total since 2020) on 72 targets. The former fifth-round selection (157th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2018 out of Central Michigan has the opportunity to be the Chargers' top pass-catching tight end in 2025, but he'll also be sharing playing time with Will Dissly. Dissly had a very similar 50-481-2 line to Conklin a year ago in L.A. Expect Conklin to be a touchdown-dependent TE2 in fantasy in his new home.
