Who Should I Start? Taysom Hill or Dawson Knox

Friday, November 7, 9:23 PM

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill has seen a minimal role in the offense since making his season debut in Week 5. Last week, Hill rushed the ball four times for 30 yards in their loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Normally, Hill doesn't see a ton of the field, but that could change in Week 10. Lead back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is currently questionable to suit up against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. That means, Devin Neal could be in line to start if Kamara is unable to go. It could also mean that Hill sees increased carries in the backfield. Fantasy managers should monitor Kamara's status and if he sits out then Hill could become a desperation option for this weekend.

Through nine games this season, Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has recorded 12 catches for 155 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets. However, he could see a significant role increase in Week 11 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with Bills TE1 Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) sidelined by a hamstring injury. With Kincaid absent due to injury in Week 6, Knox scored his lone touchdown of 2025. Still, he recorded just one catch for 19 yards on two targets in that game. Tampa Bay has also been fairly stingy against tight ends so far this season, allowing an average of five receptions and 43 yards per game to the position. Even with Kincaid out, Knox will still likely split playing time to some degree with Bills tight end Jackson Hawes. At best, Knox profiles as a desperation deep-league streamer at the tight end position for fantasy managers in Week 11 against Tampa Bay.
