Who Should I Start? Tommy Tremble or Chig Okonkwo

Monday, November 17, 11:41 AM

Tommy Tremble saw little involvement in the passing game but made a game-changing impact on one singular play in the Panthers' hard-fought 30-27 victory over the Falcons. The fifth-year TE only caught one pass in the entire game during overtime for 54 yards that set up the eventual game-winning field goal. The San Francisco 49ers are Carolina's next opponent for Week 12, and they ranked 25th in the league in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to TEs leading up to Week 11. Although San Francisco is a solid matchup for TEs, Tremble has not provided the volume to take advantage of the matchup. He has averaged 2.3 targets per game and was targeted more than four times once this season, in Week 4. Fantasy players should look for other alternatives to stream for their lineups instead of Tremble.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo (foot) was listed as a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. He continues to manage a foot issue that limited him during practice last week. However, Okonkwo still played during last week's game against the Houston Texans. He hauled in all three of his targets for 56 yards in the loss. He figures to be fine for Week 12, but Gunnar Helm would see an expanded role if Okonkwo was unable to play against the Seattle Seahawks this weekend.
