Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or Tyler Higbee

Saturday, November 15, 10:57 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz has still been a useful player for fantasy leagues in his age-35 season, recording 35 catches for 345 yards and four touchdowns on 49 targets. Ertz has four catches in each of his past four games and made a few impressive contested grabs in Washington's Week 10 loss to the Lions. The veteran doesn't present much fantasy upside at this stage of his career, but he's always a threat to score a touchdown as Washington's offense has stayed relatively efficient with Marcus Mariota filling in for an injured Jayden Daniels (elbow). Ertz hasn't scored in the past three games, but gets an enticing matchup against the Miami Dolphins defense that has allowed the third most PPR points per game to opposing tight ends. Ertz ranks as RotoBaller's TE12 for Sunday's matchup in Madrid, Spain.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has held onto borderline fantasy value for most of this season, and he could continue to be deployed as a low-end fantasy starter in deeper leagues during Sunday's Week 11 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Volume has saved Higbee's value lately, as he has 17 targets and 13 catches (plus two touchdowns) over his last four games. He's the overall TE32 in PPR leagues this year, but he has jumped up to TE24 in fantasy points per game since Week 6. He could see a slight uptick in his decent volume numbers this week against the Seahawks, who have allowed the second-most receptions to tight ends in 2025, as well as the sixth-most receiving yards. He's a fringe top-18 fantasy option for Week 11.
