Who Should I Start? Noah Fant or Elijah Arroyo

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant (ankle) was a non-participant during Wednesday's practice session. Fant was forced to leave during the first half of Sunday's loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Fant is now trending in the wrong direction for this weekend's game against the Miami Dolphins due to a right-ankle issue. Fant hasn't been much help to fantasy managers recently anyway. He has been held to one reception or fewer in each of his last four games. The absence of Fant would mean a larger workload for Mike Gesicki, while Tanner Hudson would serve as the No. 2. Gesicki will be an intriguing streaming option with an expanded role against the Dolphins in Week 16.

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo has been placed on injured reserve ahead of Seattle's Week 15 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Arroyo was placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury that forced him to exit early in their Week 14 win in Atlanta. The 22-year-old rookie has played in 13 games this season, catching 15 passes for 179 yards and one touchdown. Arroyo was selected in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft after garnering a lot of hype during the predraft process. With Arroyo landing on injured reserve, expect Eric Saubert and Nick Kallerup to see more work in the Seahawks offense for the remainder of the regular season. The move will end Arroyo's regular-season rookie campaign, but he can return for the playoffs.
