BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE13
ANALYSIS: New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin has been a popular streaming option this year. The veteran is the TE14 for the season, averaging 5.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. He struggled over the first two weeks, totaling two receptions on four targets for 16 receiving yards and 2.6 fantasy points, scoring 1.5 or less in both matchups.
Thankfully, Conklin has become a consistent part of the offense lately. Over the past three weeks, he has averaged five receptions on 7.7 targets for 55 receiving yards and eight fantasy points per game, totaling 8.5 or more twice despite not scoring a touchdown.
Unfortunately, the veteran tight end was limited in practice today because of a hip injury. However, Conklin should be ready for Monday night’s matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

The Bills have surrendered 7.5 fantasy points per game to tight ends this season, slightly below the league average. While the matchup isn’t ideal, Conklin is a solid streaming option in Week 6.
