Who Should I Start? Pat Freiermuth or Ja'Tavion Sanders

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth finally broke through for fantasy purposes in Week 7 with 111 yards and two touchdowns and will hope to stay involved in a Sunday night bout with the Green Bay Packers. Green Bay has surrendered the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, so while at least one of Freiermuth, Jonnu Smith, or Darnell Washington could deliver, it is tough to predict who. It was encouraging to see Freiermuth log a 65% snap share last week, but fantasy managers would be wise to take a wait-and-see approach before inserting him into starting lineups. The fifth-year pro checks in as the TE25 in RotoBaller's Week 8 rankings.

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.
