Who Should I Start? Will Dissly or Albert Okwuegbunam

Saturday, November 23, 10:02 PM

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly is set for a strong performance in a Week 12 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. Dissly has been the overall fantasy TE15 since Week 6, and has finished in the TE1 rankings twice in that span. He's coming off an overall TE5 finish last week, and could see even more targets thrown his way with Hayden Hurst (hip) ruled out. The Ravens defense has been very kind to opposing tight ends, allowing the fourth-most receiving yards per game to the position. Dissly had been piling on the targets and catches lately, and in Week 11 he came up with his first touchdown of the season. Another one is far from unlikely in Week 12, making him a lower-end TE1 option with some upside in what should be a high-scoring contest.

The Philadelphia Eagles re-signed tight end Albert Okwuegbunam to an undisclosed one-year deal on Thursday, according to a source. Okwuegbunam was scheduled to become a free agent in March, but he'll stick around in Philadelphia for at least another season. The Denver Broncos' former fourth-round pick in 2020 out of Missouri landed with the Eagles before the 2023 campaign but failed to catch his only target in only four games last season. The 25-year-old finished the year on Injured Reserve due to a mysterious hamstring injury. With Dallas Goedert, Jack Stoll and Grant Calcaterra ahead of him on the depth chart, Albert O figures to be facing an uphill battle to make the regular-season roster out of training camp this summer.
