Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or Jaxson Dart

Saturday, November 1, 11:44 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has low-end streaming appeal ahead of Week 9 against the New Orleans Saints. Higbee has delivered modest production recently, catching seven passes for 59 yards and one touchdown over his last two games. He also commanded six targets during his last contest back in Week 7. Most importantly, Higbee has established himself as the No. 1 tight end in Los Angeles, holding onto his role over players such as Colby Parkinson and Terrance Ferguson. This week, Higbee gets a decent matchup against the Saints, who have allowed the eighth-most touchdowns and 12th-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends in 2025. He should be viewed as a low-end TE2 with borderline streaming appeal in a productive offense.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart remains a high-floor fantasy option for his sixth NFL start, primarily due to his aggressive rushing ability, evidenced by six rushing touchdowns in just five games and a 16.96 fantasy points per game average. This week's matchup against the San Francisco 49ers defense is favorable, as they rank 31st in the NFL with only nine sacks, which should give Dart ample time to utilize his dual-threat skills. Despite losing key weapons, Dart can exploit the 49ers' passing defense, which has allowed 229.3 passing yards and 13 passing touchdowns on the season. Given the opponent's low pass-rush pressure and Dart's rushing floor, he is a solid QB2 start, capable of exceeding the 16.51 fantasy points per game the 49ers allow to quarterbacks.
