Who Should I Start? Stephen Carlson or Quintin Morris

The Chicago Bears placed tight end Stephen Carlson (collarbone) on injured reserve Saturday ahead of their Week 4 home matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Carlson, who was just signed from the team's practice squad this past Tuesday, suffered a serious collarbone injury during Thursday's practice and will now miss at least the next four contests. The earliest he is eligible to return will be Nov. 3 -- Chicago's Week 9 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. It's a crushing blow for the 27-year-old who was slated for his first NFL action since his time back in 2020 with the Cleveland Browns. The Bears will roll out their usual three-man tight-end rotation, with Cole Kmet set to take the majority of the snaps and Gerald Everett and Marcedes Lewis working in behind him.

The Buffalo Bills have elected not to tender an offer to restricted free-agent tight end Quintin Morris, a source tells NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. However, the Bills would like to re-sign Morris, who started three games in 2024. Without receiving a tender off from Buffalo this offseason, the 26-year-old will now become an unrestricted free agent and will be able to sign with any team. The Bowling Green product worked behind Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox in his third year in the NFL in 2024 and caught just five of his eight targets for 36 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular-season games. Morris has been well off the fantasy radar since debuting in 2022, and that should continue to be the case in 2025, even if he signs somewhere else. In his three seasons, he has 15 receptions for 146 yards and three touchdowns on 22 targets.
