Njoku is in for an extremely tough matchup with the Arizona Cardinals defense, which has allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends. In an extremely thin position, fantasy managers could go out and start chasing points after his explosion in Week 5 against the Chargers. He caught all seven of his targets for 149 yards and a touchdown, so even half of this production would still be solid for the TE slot in fantasy lineups if you are in need of a streaming option.
Still, considering Austin Hooper will have a role in the passing game, Njoku is an easy fade this week, even with all the hype surrounding him from last week. Odell Beckham Jr. was almost non-existent in the offense in Week 5, which is safe to say will likely change against the Cardinals. When you combine the run-heavy Cleveland offense and a horrible matchup that allows just 5.54 fantasy points per game to the position, Njoku is an easy fade on Sunday.
