David Njoku A Solid TE Option For Season Opener
6 years agoCleveland Browns tight end David Njoku will welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers to town for the regular season opener on Sunday. Njoku put together an impressive preseason, catching two touchdowns on six receptions. The second-year tight end is poised to take a large leap forward in the 2018 season, starting with Week 1 against the Steelers. At first glance, Pittsburgh's defensive stats against tight ends in 2017 look excellent, but the loss of Ryan Shazier to a devastating back injury late last season changes things drastically. Shazier was excellent in coverage and was one of the main reasons the Steelers were able to effectively limit enemy tight ends. Njoku can be treated as a high-end TE2 in fantasy and makes for an excellent stacking partner with quarterback Tyrod Taylor in daily fantasy.
