Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant finished the Week 7 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers by catching all four targets for 44 yards. He also scored a touchdown, his first visit to the end zone since the Week 1 meeting with the Cleveland Browns. With Mike Gesicki (pectoral) out of commission and sitting on the Injured Reserve list, Fant should continue to see the most snaps at the position for the foreseeable future. The Bengals offense looked fantastic in Week 7, totaling 33 points. However, even if Joe Flacco and company stay as hot in the Week 8 encounter with the New York Jets, Fant is still hard to trust as long as Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are in the equation. As result, the 27-year-old should be viewed as nothing more than a risky streaming option for managers in all fantasy formats.

Ja'Tavion Sanders has yet to become a factor in the Carolina passing game this season. This year, Sanders has no touchdowns and only logged over two receptions and 50 receiving yards in one of his four games played. The second-year tight end was targeted twice, but had no receptions in last week's contest, which was his first since returning from an ankle injury that caused him to miss four games. Carolina will face the Buffalo Bills, who have allowed 5.6 fantasy points per game to tight ends, which is second-best in the league this season. Considering his underwhelming numbers, Sanders is unrosterable in any formats outside of Dynasty leagues until further notice.
