6 years agoAtlanta Falcons tight end Austin Hooper could be in for a tough week against the New Orleans Saints in Week 12. The Saints defense ranks 2nd in the league when it comes to preventing tight ends from scoring fantasy points, and are coming off a game in which even Zach Ertz struggled. In Hooper's first game against the Saints this season he had just 23 yards on three receptions, adding a two point conversion to somewhat salvage his day. Hooper's receiving totals have been extremely up-and-down recently and it could be a tough Thanksgiving for the young tight end. If you have another option this would be a week to go away from Hooper at the tight end position.--Ben Rolfe
