Who Should I Start? Tyler Warren or Elijah Arroyo

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren turned in a quiet game in a Week 9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Warren caught five of his seven targets for just 26 yards in the loss, a season-low in receiving yards for the breakout rookie. The first-year tight end will look to move past his quietest game as a pro in a Week 10 home matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons have dominated enemy tight ends this season, allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Warren remains a main piece of the Indy passing attack, but fantasy managers would be wise to temper expectations heading into Week 10. He is looking more like a low-end TE1 this coming weekend in all fantasy formats.

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo recorded four catches for 42 yards on five targets in his team's Week 7 win over the Houston Texans. That marked just the second time Arroyo has eclipsed 40 receiving yards in a game this season. Overall, he's recorded 11 catches for 140 yards on 17 targets across the first seven games of his NFL career. Arroyo appears to be firmly behind AJ Barner on the Seahawks' tight end depth chart, as his snap counts have been closer to Seattle TE3 Eric Saubert's than Barner's. As long as that continues, Arroyo is unlikely to be a consistently fantasy-relevant player.
