Week 14 Tight End Outlooks For Fantasy Football
Jonnu Smith, Miami Dolphins - Fantasy Football Outlook
Miami Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith has been one of the best tight ends in the league in the last several games and will look to continue to produce against the New York Jets on Sunday. Smith is second in yards and tied for second in touchdowns at the tight end position over his last four games. The 29-year-old has racked up 28 receptions for 346 yards and three touchdowns during that four-game span.
Tua Tagovailoa has increasingly looked to him as the season has progressed, and defenses have looked to key in on Tyreek Hill (wrist) and Jaylen Waddle. The matchup against a tough Jets defense should not be overlooked, but his production has been too good. His high floor makes him a staple in fantasy lineups weekly. Smith comes in as RotoBaller's TE6 in Week 14.
- Jake Walker, RotoBaller
Pat Freiermuth, Pittsburgh Steelers - Fantasy Football Outlook
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth, who has gained at least 59 yards in each of his last two contests, is trending upwards heading into a Week 14 bout with the Cleveland Browns. Freiermuth found the end zone last week for his fourth touchdown of the campaign and has slowly been building rapport with quarterback Russell Wilson.
He could be in line for additional opportunities on Sunday if wide receiver George Pickens (hamstring) is limited or ruled out after appearing on the injury report on Friday. Fantasy managers should monitor Pickens' status, but Freiermuth is a high-end TE2 and streaming candidate regardless, with six teams on bye this week.
- Jorden Hill, RotoBaller
Cade Otton, Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Fantasy Football Outlook
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton has come back down to Earth following his elite three-game stretch. The return of wide receiver Mike Evans has pretty much finished the elite Otton era in Tampa Bay. Over the last two games, Otton has had five receptions for 50 yards, and he hasn't found the end zone in his previous three games.
The good news is that Otton does have a plus matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders this weekend. However, Otton had a strong matchup last week and only finished with 20 yards. Fantasy managers should consider Otton as a TE2 for Week 14.
- Andy Webb, RotoBaller
