Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo caught all three of his targets for 36 yards in the Week 15 loss to the Houston Texans.

Sam LaPorta An Overall TE1 Contender In Week 15

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta heads into a juicy matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 15. Denver has surrendered the second-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this year, so LaPorta could finish as the overall TE1 in Week 15.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Looks To Bounce Back In Tough Matchup

Jared Goff A High-End QB2 Against Broncos

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw just one touchdown and two interceptions last week, snapping his run of QB1 fantasy production.

Stroud […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo A Mid-Range TE2 In Week 15

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo has posted at least 45 receiving yards in each of his last three games, which is a positive sign compared to his early-season production.
