Who Should I Start? Tanner Hudson or Charlie Woerner

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tanner Hudson will not play in Week 3 against the Vikings, after being listed as a healthy inactive. Hudson has yet to play an offensive snap for the Bengals this season although he was active each week. Instead of Hudson, tight end Cam Grandy will be active, and since he's more of a blocking specialist, that could mean the Bengals are planning to go more run-heavy if the game script allows against the Vikings. Hudson and Grandy are well off the fantasy football radar, but the switch in inactives could indicate a big workload is coming for Chase Brown.

The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms on a three-year, $12 million deal with free-agent tight end Charlie Woerner on Monday, according to his agent, Alex Essex. Woerner, a sixth-round selection in 2020 by the San Francisco 49ers out of Georgia, had just 11 catches on 15 targets for 120 yards and no touchdowns in 65 games (seven starts) in his four seasons in the Bay Area, so he shouldn't be expected to do much in Atlanta besides providing insurance at the tight end position behind Kyle Pitts. The 26-year-old is a blocking-first tight end anyway, so when he's in the game for new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, it will probably be to pave the way for running back Bijan Robinson.
