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.

Fantasy managers seeking tight end help might have been looking at Buffalo Bills TE Dawson Knox in recent weeks after Dalton Kincaid injured his hamstring in Week 10. Despite Kincaid missing Weeks 11 and 12, Knox has proven to be unreliable, catching just four passes for 40 scoreless yards on seven targets. The 29-year-old was especially disappointing in the 44-32 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last weekend, when he caught one of three targets for 23 yards on a day when the Bills' offense was marching up and down the field. Knox had three grabs on four targets for 17 yards in the Thursday night loss in Houston to the Texans. He played a season-high 86% of the offensive snaps against the Texans, but it led to another lackluster game. Kincaid could be back in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers to take over top TE pass-catching duties in Buffalo.
