Best TE matchups for fantasy football in Week 8

The big names showed up when it came to fantasy last week as Travis Kelce and Mark Andrews were the two top-scoring fantasy tight ends on National Tight Ends Day. Here’s a look at some of the top tight end up matchups for this week.

Fantasy football, Week 8: Best TE Matchups

Travis Kelce vs. Denver Broncos

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Kelce’s recorded two straight 100-yard games, one of which was a 124-yard effort against the Denver Broncos earlier this month. He’s gone for at least 71 yards in two of his last three games against the Broncos, who have allowed more than 1,800 yards passing this year.

Mark Andrews vs. Cardinals

Andrews is in line for a second straight strong week as his Ravens go against a Cardinals team that’s struggled to defend the pass this season. Andrews has recorded 60+ yards in his last four games, and the Cardinals have allowed more than 1,600 yards and 11 touchdowns through the air.

Evan Engram vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Engram’s been a PPR monster this year (he’s had at least four catches in every game this year) and is going against a Steelers team that allowed 64 yards on six receptions two weeks ago (which is the last time they faced an elite tight end). The Steelers have allowed nine touchdowns through the air and should have trouble matching up against the Jaguars’ talented offense.
