Trading away Amari Cooper opened up a huge workload for David Njoku, who delivered the most fantasy points of the week in Week 8 in the Browns’ loss to the Bengals. He remains an elite option going forward for as long as he gets so much attention in Cleveland’s passing attack.
With all 32 teams in action Week 8, it’s a fully loaded top 10 this week, including Njoku, rookie sensation Brock Bowers, a resurgent Evan Engram and stalwarts Travis Kelce and George Kittle, who continue to carry big workloads for their banged-up offenses.
Looking ahead to Week 8, here are my top 10 tight ends coming into the week:
- Brock Bowers (vs. KC)
- George Kittle (vs. DAL)
- Travis Kelce (at LV)
- David Njoku (vs. BAL)
- Evan Engram (vs. GB)
- Trey McBride (at MIA)
- Jake Ferguson (at SF)
- Tucker Kraft (at JAC)
- Cole Kmet (at WAS)
- Hunter Henry (vs. NYJ)
