Who Should I Start? Mike Gesicki or Brenton Strange

Saturday, December 13, 1:40 PM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki is coming off his best game of the 2025 campaign, catching all six targets for 86 yards. He also found the end zone for the first time this season. Naturally, his stock is much higher after that performance. It increased even more once Tee Higgins (concussion) was ruled out. That means extra targets will be up for grabs in the Week 15 rematch with the Ravens. While Ja'Marr Chase and Chase Brown are the favorites to see the most attention from Joe Burrow, that's not to say Gesicki won't be more involved (and productive) than usual. As a result, the veteran can be utilized for streaming purposes in any fantasy format on Sunday versus Baltimore in a contest that is projected to feature plenty of offense from both sides.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange should lean on a lackluster Jets defense in Week 15 and return to the top end of the TE leaderboard. The 6-foot-4 Strange was the half-PPR TE5 in both Weeks 12 and 13 after missing five games due to a hip injury, but faltered with only 5.7 points last week, coming up just short of a touchdown. Strange would see six targets on the day, matching his average opportunity in '25. In fact, over the last three weeks, his 165 yards are fifth-best among TEs, and no other TE in the top 12 has an average depth of target above 10 in that span (his is 10.2). The Jets have tightened up on defense against the position lately, yet the seven TDs allowed to TEs is still a bottom-10 mark. Few others can boast a healthy red-zone role and a downfield presence for fantasy managers, making Strange a deserving top-10 option at TE.
