Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or T.J. Hockenson

Sunday, December 1, 5:07 PM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz found the back of the end zone for the third-straight contest in their victory over the Tennessee Titans. Ertz saw six targets (second-highest on the team) and brought in three of them for 35 yards. The veteran tallied his fourth touchdown of the season off a four-yard pass from Jayden Daniels in the final frame. With Noah Brown's inconsistencies, fantasy managers should continue to expect Ertz to see a reliable target share weekly. Ertz remains a solid low-end TE1 heading into the final weeks of the season and continues to be a value in DFS formats. Ertz will look to stay hot in Week 15 when the Commanders travel to New Orleans to face the Saints following their Week 14 bye.

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson caught 4-of-5 targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Atlanta Falcons. It's a slightly disappointing performance for the 27-year-old on a day when quarterback Sam Darnold threw for five touchdowns and a career-high 347 yards. Hockenson was the team's third-leading receiver in targets, yardage, and receptions on the afternoon. Still, production was hard to come by, with wideouts Jordan Addison and Justin Jefferson combining for 15 catches, 265 yards, and all five scores on 19 of Darnold's 28 attempts. The Iowa alum will look to elevate his stat line next Monday night in a rematch against the Chicago Bears at home. Hockenson's last meeting with the Bears produced a season-best seven receptions and 114 yards in Week 12.
