Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tanner Hudson is not a viable fantasy option in Week 11 when his team lines up against the Los Angeles Chargers on the road at SoFi Stadium. The seventh-year veteran has seen his usage tick up since rookie TE Erick All Jr (knee) went down for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. In Week 10, Hudson had his best outing of the season when he churned out 42 yards and a touchdown on 6-of-7 receiving against a sieve-like Baltimore Ravens defense. However, he'll have a much more difficult outing this weekend against one of the top defenses in the league. The Chargers are affording opposing tight ends an average of 4.7 fantasy points per outing and are the top scoring defense in the NFL -- letting up just 13.1 points per game. Additionally, the 30-year-old will continue to contend with teammate Mike Gesicki for targets and now has wide receiver Tee Higgins (quad) back in the fold, vying for his own share. Hudson is RotoBaller's PPR TE28 ahead of Week 11's outing.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth showed signs of life for fantasy purposes last week and will look to stay involved in a Week 13 meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati has given up plenty of production through the air this season and has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. For what it's worth, Freiermuth has played quite well against the Bengals throughout his career and posted a career-high 120 receiving yards against them in Week 12 of the 2023 campaign. He is an intriguing fantasy streaming candidate in this matchup, but with no teams on bye this week, there are likely better options available for starting lineups.
