Who Should I Start? Tyler Higbee or Mason Taylor

Saturday, November 15, 12:19 PM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has held onto borderline fantasy value for most of this season, and he could continue to be deployed as a low-end fantasy starter in deeper leagues during Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Volume has saved Higbee's value lately, as he has 17 targets and 13 catches (plus two touchdowns) over his last four games. He's the overall TE32 in PPR leagues this year, but he has jumped up to TE24 in fantasy points per game since Week 6. He could see a slight uptick in his decent volume numbers this week against the Seahawks, who have allowed the second-most receptions to tight ends in 2025, as well as the sixth-most receiving yards. He's a fringe top-18 fantasy option for Week 11.

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor was a disappointment in Week 10's win against the Cleveland Browns, hauling in 1-of-2 targets for a gain of four yards. Heading into the team's bye, the rookie had garnered five or more targets in five of six games. In fact, he recorded his second-highest target total of the season the week prior (eight). However, Taylor has followed 8- and 12-target outings with one-catch, single-digit yardage output. Naturally, the 21-year-old is experiencing NFL growing pains, although a struggling Jets' offense hasn't been an ecosystem conducive to success. With wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) facing an extended absence, it stands to reason that Taylor would absorb a higher target share. On the other hand, there's no guarantee New York won't again deploy a run-heavy attack. Taylor is a low-end streaming option, and, officially, RotoBaller's PPR TE26 for his week 11 matchup with a staunch New England Patriots' defense.
