In Week 6 we lose the services of Jimmy Graham and Jason Witten to bye weeks. We will also slightly miss Tyler Kroft and Nick O’Leary, who are filling in for injured starters.
Rob Gronkowski has a thigh injury but has already practiced this week and is “good to go” against the Jets this weekend.
Travis Kelce missed Wednesday’s practice but had no limitations on Thursday and Friday. You must start him as you normally would. Demetrius Harris slides out of consideration for me.
Jack Doyle missed Week 5 due to a concussion but he practiced in full on Friday and is on track to return for Monday’s game against the Titans. He has not contributed much this season but remains a must-hold with the impending return of Andrew Luck.
Lastly, Jared Cook is a player I have never loved to bet on, but he gets Derek Carr back this week and he looked like a burgeoning TE1 early on. I think you have to find a way to use him if you own him. And hold him for a week or so to see if the magic is recaptured with Carr.
As always, feel free to haggle away in the comments. Cheers!
