Mark Andrews Injury Update
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (shoulder/knee) will be a game-time decision for the team's Week 11 matchup with the Carolina Panthers. Despite being banged up this year, Andrews is still the TE2 in total fantasy points, so there's no tough decision to make if he's active.
Carolina is statically solid against tight ends, but Andrews is a must-start stud, and he should slot back in as the clear No. 1 option with Rashod Bateman (foot) lost for the reason. If he's out, consider Isiah Likely a mid-tier TE1 play for Week 11.
David Njoku Injury Update
Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (ankle) is currently considered questionable for the Week 11 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The good news is, Njoku was able to return to the practice field on Thursday. That is a step in the right direction with Njoku being sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain in Week 7.
The 26-year-old was in the middle of a breakout campaign before going down with this injury. That being said, fantasy managers should hold to hold him through this issue. He could be a risky play this week because he probably won't be 100 percent and the Bills have an above-average defense. Although, Njoku should still be able to produce low-end TE1 value, assuming he's able to play.
Gerald Everett Injury Update
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (groin) practiced on Friday after logging limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday. It's a good sign that Everett was able to do something at practice this week, but he sounds very questionable to play on Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, making him an even more risky TE1/2 for fantasy managers this weekend.
If he's limited or out, Tre' McKitty is likely to operate as the Bolts' top pass-catching tight end in what could be a shootout.
Daniel Bellinger Injury Update
New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) will not play in Week 11 after missing the previous two games with a scary injury. It's unclear when Bellinger will return since it's a rare injury, but his absence doesn't put any of the Giants' tight ends on the fantasy radar.
This game against Detroit should set up for a massive workload for Saquon Barkley.
