Who Should I Start? Noah Fant or Dawson Knox

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant had four catches (five targets) for 26 yards in the Week 1 win over the Cleveland Browns. He also had a touchdown in that one. Unfortunately, the 27-year-old hasn't done anything meaningful since then, catching eight passes for 54 yards. In Fant's defense, the entire offense hasn't looked the best, and it didn't matter whether it was Joe Burrow (toe) or Jake Browning under center. With the recently acquired Joe Flacco getting the start versus the Packers, it's unknown how his presence will impact the offense. However, until the offense can turn things around, Fant shouldn't be anywhere near a fantasy lineup. That will still apply if Ja'Marr Chase (illness) ends up getting ruled out in Week 6.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox found the end zone for the first time this year in Monday night's 24-14 loss to the Falcons. He only had one catch on his two targets, but made it count for a 19-yard score. Knox was in a more prominent role with Dalton Kincaid out. Kincaid was originally listed as questionable due to an oblique injury, but was ruled out before kickoff. Knox has been getting decent playing time but not a ton of targets this season. After Monday's game, he has seven catches for 73 yards in his six games, but he could be a deep league option if Kincaid isn't able to return after the Bills' bye week. Knox has shown he can contribute when in a larger role, but his targets are typically limited when Kincaid is healthy. Since Buffalo is headed to its bye in Week 7, the waiver wire probably has better options available for a short-term solution in most leagues.
