Play 'EM
1.O.J. Howard Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Detroit Lions
This season has not been a good one for Howard but this may be a good week for him. This week Howard may get more targets as the Bucs announced that receiver Mike Evans is out for the season with a hamstring injury. The Lions have given up an average of 11.87 points per game to opposing TEs this season. They are the 17th ranked defense at defending the TE position.
2.David Njoku Cleveland Browns @ Arizona Cardinals
Last week Njoku returned from a broken wrist and did not have that great of a game but this week may be a different story. This week Njoku and the Browns face a Cardinals defense that has given up a touchdown to a TE in almost every game this season. The Cardinals have given up an average of 19.70 points per game to opposing TEs this season. They are the 32nd ranked defense at defending the TE position.
Bench 'EM
1.Ryan Griffin New York Jets @ Baltimore Ravens
Since Ryan Griffin had his hot start he has really cooled off. This week he is going into the game injured and on Thursday night is not a good idea to play as he will not be 100%. The Ravens have given up an average of 8.45 points per game to opposing TEs this season. They are the 1st ranked defense at defending the TE position.
2.Kyle Rudolph Minnesota Vikings @ Los Angles Chargers
This season Kyle Rudolph has been really inconsistent as he has big games and then goes week without doing anything. Rudolph is really a boom-or-bust player as he will have a big game or will do nothing. The Chargers have given up an average of 10.48 points per game to opposing TEs this season. They are the 9th ranked defense at defending the TE position.
