BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 29% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon is the top tight end pick in many fantasy leagues right now. He has 267 receiving yards and three touchdowns over his past half-dozen outings, plus he just had a season-high seven receptions and eight targets this past Sunday versus the New England Patriots. Even though Josh McCown is at quarterback instead of Sam Darnold, and even though Robby Anderson and Quincy Enunwa are healthy again at wide receiver, Herndon is still producing.
Herndon has a major roadblock he has to run through this week. The Tennessee Titans have not allowed a tight end to score a touchdown against them this season, so Herndon has his work cut out for him. He has not laid any fantasy eggs in recent weeks, though, and he keeps showing above-average speed and keeps getting featured more in New York’s passing attack. Pick up Herndon and at worst he will get you four catches for 40 yards.
