Who Should I Start? Will Dissly or Cole Kmet

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly made five catches in a Week 8 win over the New Orleans Saints. Dissly remained heavily involved in the passing game, seeing seven targets thrown his way, tied for the team lead. His five catches gained 41 yards. That's now three games in a row of at least five targets for Dissly, who has developed a high floor as part of the Chargers passing game. He should continue as a solid but unexciting TE2 option in Week 9 as the Bolts travel to Cleveland to take on the Browns.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet had a tough outing against the Washington Commanders in Week 8, finishing with just one reception for 14 yards and no touchdowns. It's challenging for a tight end to have a productive game when the quarterback completes only ten passes for a total of 131 yards. After some strong performances recently, it was disappointing to see Kmet's lack of production. He was even out-targeted by backup tight end Gerald Everett, who had two targets compared to Kmet's one, which is discouraging for fantasy owners who expected Kmet to dominate the tight end targets. On National Tight End Day, when many tight ends across the league excelled, the Bears unfortunately fell short. Kmet will aim to bounce back next week in a favorable matchup against the weaker Arizona Cardinals defense.
