Hayden Hurst A Borderline TE1
4 years agoAtlanta Falcons tight end Hayden Hurst faces the Lions in Week 7. Hurst is coming off of a four-catch, 57-yard performance with a touchdown against the Vikings. The former Raven seems to benefit from the presence of Julio Jones (hamstring), as he's averaged his highest yards per reception marks in the games where Jones has suited up. Detroit ranks second in fantasy points allowed to tight ends, though their defense as a whole isn't menacing against the pass. Hurst should be looked at as a high-end TE2/low-end TE1.
