Who Should I Start? Tommy Tremble or Colston Loveland

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble is currently in line to make another start in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins The Panthers will be without Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) again this weekend, so Tremble will be asked to make another start. Last week, Tremble hauled in five of his eight targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the loss. The 25-year-old saw 75 percent of the offensive snaps. This was a nice performance from Tremble, but it's unclear if he can do it again. It's worth noting that wide receiver Xavier Legette (hamstring) is back in the mix after a two-game absence. It's tough to imagine Tremble getting eight targets again, but there should still be TE2 value here.

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland (hip) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. The rookie had been listed as questionable. He missed two practices before being able to log a limited session Friday, but it evidently wasn't quite enough for him to play this week. Loveland has operated in a depth role this season, catching just three of his six targets through three games. On the other hand, Cole Kmet has played at least 90 percent of the snaps in all three contests so far, so he remains an interesting fantasy option whose value will only increase with Loveland sidelined. Kmet should be viewed as a mid-range TE2 for the duration of Loveland's absence.
