Noah Fant Catches Touchdown in Win Thursday Against Steelers

Friday, October 17, 9:11 AM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fannt caught all four of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 33-31 win over the Steelers. Fant expectedly played his highest snap share of the season so far (68.4%) with top tight ends Mike Gesicki (pectoral) and Tanner Hudson (concussion) both ruled out for this game. The 27-year-old capitalized on a Pittsburgh defense that has struggled against tight ends, finding the end zone for the first time since Week 1 and recording a season-high in receiving yards. The Bengals' offense looked much improved with newly acquired Joe Flacco under center, putting Fant back into streamer consideration next week if he gets another start.

Cole Kmet Quiet in Week 6 with Bears Tight End Room Back to Full Strength

Tuesday, October 14, 9:11 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had a very quiet game in Week 6 against the Washington Commanders, recording one catch for zero yards on two targets. With fellow Bears tight end Colston Loveland sidelined by a hip injury, Kmet saw a brief target spike (nine) in Week 4. However, with Loveland back in the lineup against Washington after Chicago's Week 5 bye, it appears Kmet will have a hard time earning the target volume needed for consistent fantasy production. Through five games this season, Kmet has eight catches for 116 yards and one touchdown on 18 targets. He should remain off of fantasy radars unless Loveland were to go down with another injury.
