Jets Beat: Chris Herndon top TE target

Aug 23, 2020

If Ryan Griffin is ready to roll for the upcoming season, that would be a big boost to the Jets offense. His presence would give the Jets two solid receiving threats with Chris Herndon as the top target.

Fantasy Impact:

Herndon has the most potential of the group and has shown great rapport with Sam Darnold through the early portions of training camp, the story said. But Herndon is coming off an injury and didn't see much time last season. Griffin is the veteran of the group and about to start his eighth season in the league. Griffin also seems to be the better blocker which could earn him more time on the field. Herndon is ranked 22nd on our list, so in the end Griffin likely takes away some fantasy points leaving Herndon as a low-end TE2 option.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
