Week 17 fantasy football tight ends: sit 'em
Kyle Pitts, Atlanta Falcons vs. Buffalo Bills
Kyle Pitts has been a strong fantasy football tight end this season, but he has a difficult matchup in Week 17.
The Buffalo Bills are the top-ranked passing defense in the entire NFL, allowing just 173.1 yards per game.
The other downside for Pitts in fantasy football is that he has just one touchdown this year, which came all the way back in Week 5.
Noah Fant, Denver Broncos vs. Los Angeles Chargers
Noah Fant started the fantasy football season strong but has faded since then. Across his first six games, he recorded three touchdowns and exceeded five receptions in three different games. Since then he has zero touchdowns and hasn't exceeded five receptions in any game. Fant should be avoided in fantasy football this week.
Jared Cook, Los Angeles Chargers vs. Denver Broncos
Jared Cook is an unreliable fantasy football tight end. Despite playing in a high-powered passing offense, he has not carved out a large enough role to remain relevant. He has not exceeded three receptions in any of his last seven games and hasn't eclipsed 50 receiving yards since Week 4. The Denver Broncos also rank 5th against the pass this season, allowing just 210.7 yards per game.
