Who Should I Start? Tyree Jackson or Reid Sinnett

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Tyree Jackson caught both of his targets and gained 41 yards during the team's 18-18 preseason tie with the Cleveland Browns. The 25-year-old tore his ACL at the end of the 2021 season and failed to net a reception in 2022. The fact that Philadelphia brought him back this offseason to a crowded tight-end room shows that they believe he is talented, and he showed his explosiveness on a completion deep up the right side of the field for 35 yards in the fourth quarter Thursday night. However, with Dan Arnold and second-year tight end Grant Calcaterra likely making the final 53-man roster, Jackson will have a tough time surviving cutdowns unless he absolutely explodes next week against the Colts. Expect Jackson to land on the Eagles practice squad by the time the regular season rolls around.

The Cincinnati Bengals are expected to elevate quarterback Reid Sinnett from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster for Monday night's game against the Los Angeles Rams, according to a source. It will give the Bengals more depth behind Joe Burrow (calf), who has been nursing a calf issue and is questionable for Week 3, and Jake Browning. It makes us wonder, though, if this means that Burrow won't play against the Rams. However, word is that Burrow is pushing to play on Monday night despite aggravating a calf injury that kept him out for all of training camp and the preseason. Either way, fantasy managers who drafted Burrow should have already gone with a replacement in Week 3 because of his questionable status. He's going to be a game-time decision.
