Standing Pat: Week 13 Tight End Streamers

Neil Dutton
November 28, 2023

Incredibly, there are still bye weeks left in the 2023 NFL season. I know, right? I hate it too. But here we are. With this in mind, you may find yourself once more in need of help at the tight end spot in fantasy football. If this is the case, then you are reading the right article. I am here to present the names of three players widely available in fantasy leagues across the globe. These players all have potentially juicy match ups that make them somewhat appealing this week, despite fantasy managers largely ignoring them for much of the season.

You don’t have to love these options. But until, and I pray this day never comes, leagues mandate that you do not NEED to start a TE, then sometimes you just need to plug a guy in and hope for the best. Although these guys offer a little more than hope in Week 13.

Stats do not include players from Monday Night Football

Will-ing It Into Existence: Week 12 Tight End Streamers

Neil Dutton November 19, 2024

It may not have reached everyone, but it is official. It is time we truly acknowledge that Brock Bowers is a name that I, in the context of this column, will almost certainly never get to write about in future seasons.

Neil Dutton November 5, 2024

I regret to inform you that we have reached the part of the fantasy season I dislike most. I’m not talking about bye weeks, early kickoffs, or games on multiple days. They all happen, and I have made my peace with these events. No, I am talking about the time in the season when I am finally forced to acknowledge that one of the best…...
