Who Should I Start? Mike Gesicki or Tyler Warren

Wednesday, November 12, 2:26 PM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) has been making positive progress in his recovery from a pectoral injury suffered in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. Gesicki was placed on Injured Reserve following that game and is now entering the fourth game he was required to miss on IR, but should have a good chance of returning in Week 12 versus the Patriots. The 30-year-old was having a quiet start to the year before going down, catching eight of 16 targets for 61 yards in six games. Noah Fant has mostly filled in as the Bengals' tight end with Gesicki sidelined, and he's been a solid contributor, recording 13 catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns since Week 6. Fant will again be a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in Week 11 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren caught eight of his 10 targets for 99 yards during Sunday's Week 10 victory against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The rookie set season-highs (and, thus, career-highs) in all three statistical categories on Sunday. He continues to be one of Daniel Jones' favorite targets, making a huge 23-yard catch to get the Colts in scoring position during overtime Sunday, among other key plays. Warren will enjoy a Week 11 bye before returning to action against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. He should continue to be started as a high-end TE1 in fantasy football.
