Week 13 Start ’Em: Tight EndsStart of the Week
David Njoku at Rams (4:25 p.m. ET, Fox): Njoku has been one of the most consistent tight ends in recent weeks, scoring 10-plus points in six straight games including one with more than 17 points. He has been targeted heavily over the last two weeks, too, seeing 24 chances. Njoku also has a great matchup in Los Angeles against a Rams defense that’s allowed the sixth-most PPR points to tight ends.

Start ’Em
Evan Engram vs. Bengals (Mon. 8:15 p.m. ET, ESPN): Engram scored a decent line last week, catching five passes for 49 yards in a win over the Texans. I’d keep him in lineups this week, too, as he faces a Bengals defense that just allowed 120 yards and 21 fantasy points to Pat Freiermuth last week. Overall, their defense has allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season.
Trey McBride at Steelers (1 p.m. ET, CBS): McBride has scored 13 or more fantasy points in three of his last six games, and he's played 60 snaps in each of the last two contests. This week's matchup against the Steelers isn't great on paper, but they have allowed 12-plus points to two tight ends since Week 8. With six teams off and Michael Wilson out, McBride is one of the five best options at the position.
Taysom Hill vs. Lions (1 p.m. ET, Fox): Hill didn’t put up a huge fantasy line last week, but he did see enough touches to be fantasy relevant at a thin position. The Saints are also hemorrhaging receivers due to injuries, with Michael Thomas on the injured list and Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (thigh) hurt last week. In what could be a shootout, Hill and Juwan Johnson are both startable.
