Who Should I Start? Nick Vannett or Dallas Goedert

Wednesday, November 1, 9:03 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers signed tight end Nick Vannett to their active roster on Wednesday. Vannett had been on the team's practice squad since the end of August but is now in line to make his first appearance for the Chargers in Week 9. Vannett will provide some depth at the position with Gerald Everett (hip) dealing with a hip injury that held him out of Week 8. Vannett has been in the NFL since being a third-round pick in 2016 and has accumulated 90 catches for 874 yards and six touchdowns over his career.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (forearm) is pushing to play Sunday when the Eagles host the San Francisco 49ers. The tight end has missed two games with a fractured forearm, but a bye week mixed in has given him extra time to recover. If he's not able to make it back against San Francisco, a return for the Week 14 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys seems fairly certain. In his place, the Eagles have been starting Jack Stoll, who hasn't done anything of relevance for fantasy football. Wide receiver DeVonta Smith has been the biggest beneficiary, averaging over 100 yards per game in Goedert's absence. Keep an eye on injury updates throughout the week for Goedert.
