Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Kyle Pitts

Saturday, September 16, 3:27 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz will be looking to build off of last Sunday's performance in Week 2 against the New York Giants. In the Week 1 loss to the Commanders, Ertz led the NFL in targets at the tight end position with 10, becoming a solid check-down option for quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Arizona's offensive line is currently a mess, and the Giants are looking to bounce back from their Week 1 thrashing at the hands of the Cowboys. Dobbs may look Ertz's way early and often. If that happens, the odds are good Ertz could approach the 10 target threshold once again and be a solid fantasy option. Either way, fantasy managers should roll with him in Week 2.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts surprising saw an increase in usage during Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Detroit Lions. The young tight end hauled in five of his nine targets for 41 yards in the loss. This was the first game this season that Pitts has seen more than five targets in a single game. Sadly, quarterback Desmond Ridder overthrew him multiple times during this contest. That being said, Pitts probably won't have TE1 value too often this season. He'll be a mid-range TE2 for the Week 4 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
