Don’t look now but Okonkwo has 21 targets over his last two games. He caught 17 of those targets for 140 yards and scored 13.9 and 19.1 fantasy points, respectively, in those games. Those were both top seven fantasy TE finishes. Tennessee’s move to Mason Rudolph has clearly benefitted Okonkwo, who has been the QB’s top option. According to Fantasy Points Data, Okonkwo was the first read on 32 percent of the Titans’ dropbacks last week. On Sunday, he faces a Jaguars defense that has allowed the seventh-most yards and rank top 10 in fantasy PPG allowed to tight ends. For those of you who have been streaming tight ends, Okonkwo is a name for you this week.
As we head into the final week of the NFL regular season, it’s important to make sure your fantasy football lineup is set with the best tight ends available. Here are some top tight end options for Week 17:
1. Travis Kelce (Kansas City Chiefs) – Kelce has been a consistent force at the tight end position all season and should continue to put up big numbers in Week 17 against the Denver Broncos.
2. George Kittle (San Francisco 49ers) – Kittle has been a reliable option for fantasy owners and has a favorable matchup against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 17.
3. Mark Andrews (Baltimore Ravens) – Andrews has been one of the top tight ends in the league this season and faces a Cincinnati Bengals defense that has struggled against tight ends.
4. Darren Waller (Las Vegas Raiders) – Waller has been a consistent producer for the Raiders and has a good matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17.
5. T.J. Hockenson (Detroit Lions) – Hockenson has been a bright spot for the Lions this season and should continue to see plenty of targets against the Green Bay Packers in Week 17.
Make sure to check injury reports and matchups before setting your lineup, but these tight ends should be solid options for Week 17. Good luck in your fantasy football matchups!
