Who Should I Start? Tre' McKitty or Teagan Quitoriano

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Tre' McKitty has been waived by the team on Tuesday. The Chargers drafted McKitty in the third round of the 2021 draft out of Georgia but he was never able to make much of an impact in Los Angeles. He is young enough and has the draft pedigree to latch on somewhere else, so all is not lost for the third-year tight end. It will continue to be Gerald Everett (hip) and Donald Parham Jr. operating as the main tight ends for the Chargers.

Houston Texans tight end Teagan Quitoriano (lower body) had a notable performance in the Hall of Fame Game against the Chicago Bears, catching two passes for 21 yards and a touchdown. The Texans rested starter Dalton Schultz and backup Brevin Jordan. This left Quitoriano and rookie Cade Stover as the only tight ends on the roster. Quitoriano started the game, taking the first five plays before Stover rotated in for a few snaps. Quitoriano, a 2022 sixth-round pick from Oregon State, scored the touchdown but was carted off the field later due to an injury. The 24-year-old went for evaluation of a lower-body injury with no further update. Stover continued as the lone tight end for the remainder of the game. Neither Quitoriano nor Stover will have significant fantasy value unless Schultz and Jordan miss time.
