Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or Kyle Pitts Sr.

Saturday, October 18, 11:56 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has re-emerged as a potential fantasy option heading into Week 7 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Higbee is coming off a solid showing in which he caught four passes for 40 yards and a touchdown. Furthermore, the Rams will be without Puka Nacua (ankle) on Sunday, which will put Higbee and Jordan Whittington in line to operate as Matthew Stafford's second-favorite targets behind Davante Adams. Higbee's snap share will likely remain around 60 percent, but we wouldn't be surprised to see him handle at least five targets, giving him a chance to make an impact in fantasy football. He's not a long-term solution in your lineups, but with Nacua sidelined this weekend, Higbee can be a decent streamer. For what it's worth, the Jaguars have allowed the 11th-most receiving yards to tight ends in 2025.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 62 yards in Week 7, which was his second seven-catch performance in six games thus far and the first time he recorded double-digit targets, now averaging just over six targets per game. The 6-foot-6 tight end owns a solid 19.3 percent target share, putting him in the low-end TE1 conversation most weeks, however, he's been able to find the end zone just one time all season, leaving him as just the 16th-overall TE in half-point PPR leagues. Still, the 25-year-old is back in the TE1 conversation in a home game against the Dolphins, a defense that has given up 29 points per game over the last three weeks. Teams have preferred to run against Miami, but with six teams on bye and it being National Tight Ends' Day (he caught two TDs last year on that day), the former first-round draft pick sets up as a low-end TE1 again.
