Cardinals Beat: Options at TE

Oct 12, 2021

As it stands Tuesday, the Cardinals have tight end Demetrius Harris on the active roster, Darrell Daniels on the COVID-19 list and Ross Travis and Bernhard Seikovits (International Player Pathway) on the practice squad.

Of the three currently not on the COVID-19 list, only Harris has the most live NFL action this season. After being used as mostly a special teamer, Harris saw a season-high 52% of offensive snaps (32) in Week 5.

The 30-year-old has 106 games and 45 starts of NFL experience in his career.

The in-house options aren't overly great for Cards, at least on paper. The author speculated about some options outside the organization who could be available. Names included O.J. Howard, Mo Alie-Cox, Hayden Hurst and Jimmy Graham. It remains to be seen what they do, but Williams was starting to emerge as a legit threat in the passing game at the TE position.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
