Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Anthony Firkser

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz should continue to be viewed as a low-end TE1 in Week 12 when he faces the Dallas Cowboys. Last week, during their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Ertz brought in six of his seven targets for 47 yards and his second touchdown of the season. Since Week 6, Ertz has scored double-digit PPR points in four of the six contests and averaged 6.2 targets per game in this span. With a lack of a proven No.2 option in the passing attack, Ertz has continued to see a steady volume of work weekly. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should continue to view Ertz as a solid option this weekend when facing a struggling Cowboys defense that has allowed 34 points in each of their past two games.

The New York Jets have signed former Detroit Lions tight end Anthony Firkser. Firkser joins a Jets tight end room led by Tyler Conklin. Firkser only appeared in two games for the Lions in 2023 and did not record a statistic. This appears to be a depth add for the Jets as they prepare for the season's long haul with eyes set on the Super Bowl. Time will tell if Firkser manages to make the final roster. This move is of little consequence for fantasy football.
