Will Mallory News
Saturday, October 24, 10:33 AM
Indianapolis Colts tight end Will Mallory is a difficult fantasy start and belongs on benches in typical 12-team leagues, even though he should remain involved against the Minnesota Vikings with Tyler Warren (groin) ruled out for a second consecutive game. Mallory returned from a thumb injury in Week 6 and led Indianapolis tight ends with 43 offensive snaps, ahead of Mo Alie-Cox (31) and Drew Ogletree (30). He drew six targets, the third-most on the team, but converted them into just two receptions for 20 yards. The matchup is the problem: Minnesota has held opposing tight ends to 16 catches for 221 yards and no touchdowns through five games, a particularly difficult challenge for an inexperienced receiving option, though his opportunity gives him some desperation-streamer appeal in deeper formats.

Rivaldo Fairweather News
Friday, August 28, 11:30 PM
Arizona Cardinals tight end Rivaldo Fairweather led the team in targets and receptions in Friday's meeting with the Packers. Fairweather saw 12 targets, catching eight for 89 yards in Arizona's preseason finale. His 17 total receptions in the preseason rank first in the entire league. The 24-year-old's success in his final audition before roster cuts did more to help him secure a spot on the team than offer real hope of fantasy relevance. There simply won't be room in the pass game to feed a backup tight end after Trey McBride, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Michael Wilson. Fairweather's ability to find open space and to secure the ball in his extended look makes him an interesting option to keep in mind if McBride were to get hurt, but he can be ignored even in deep leagues for now.
