Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or Dallas Goedert

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill put together one of the more impressive stat lines of the season in the Week 16 win over the Jets, rushing 12 times for 42 yards, catching four of six targets for 36 yards, and throwing a 38-yard touchdown on his lone pass attempt. The performance cemented Hill's place in history, as he became the first player in the Super Bowl era to reach 1,000 career yards passing, rushing, and receiving. With Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle) and Devin Neal (hamstring) sidelined, Hill operated as the Saints' primary rushing threat, while Audric Estime and Evan Hull each received only five carries. With Kamara set to miss another week and Neal on IR, Hill should once again be heavily involved against the Titans in Week 17. His do-it-all role makes him a TE1 for the contest.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert has now caught a touchdown in consecutive games for the first time since Weeks 5 and 6 after scoring against the Commanders. However, Goedert's usage fell back down to earth, finishing with just three catches for 32 yards on three targets. And this week, Goedert will have a steep uphill battle as he travels to Buffalo to take on the defense allowing the fewest fantasy points to tight ends this year. Hope was restored after back-to-back 70+-yard games for Goedert, but his most recent performance once again showed his inconsistency with catches and yardage. Unless managers believe in a late-season end zone resurgence continuing, it's probably best to set expectations low for Goedert. He's a mid-tier TE2 option this week.
