Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Elic Ayomanor

Saturday, October 25, 10:02 PM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz has scored in back-to-back games and continues to produce at age 34. Ertz will be joined back by top wide receivers Terry McLaurin, who returns from a four-game absence due to a quadriceps injury, and Deebo Samuel Sr., who missed Week 7 with a heel injury. The veteran tight end will miss his connection with quarterback Jayden Daniels, who has been ruled out with a hamstring injury. Ertz was quiet in Marcus Mariota's two starts this season, catching five of seven targets for 59 yards. He could benefit from McLaurin's vertical ability back in the lineup to open up space underneath, but Kansas City has been a tough matchup for opposing tight ends, allowing the fourth fewest points per game. Ertz is ranked as RotoBaller's TE13 for Week 8.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor will once again be asked to step up with this offense shorthanded this weekend. Top wide receiver Calvin Ridley (hamstring) has been ruled out and will miss his second straight game. Last week, Ayomanor struggled as he hauled in two of his five targets for 29 yards in the loss to the New England Patriots. The rookie wideout has failed to surpass 30 receiving yards in each of the last three games. The playing time will be there, but nothing seems to be going right for this Titans offense at the moment. Ayomanor might be able to offer flex value in PPR formats for the Week 8 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
