Fantasy football: Turn to tight ends as wide receiver injuries pile up

A cluster of wide receiver injuries and trades has left the Rams, Cardinals and Colts short of reliable fantasy starters at the position. The article argues that managers in those leagues should look to tight ends, as teams may use more multi-tight-end formations when their wide receiver options are depleted.

For the Rams, Tyler Higbee and Colby Parkinson could benefit from Puka Nacua’s absence, while Arizona’s Trey McBride is expected to draw targets and Elijah Higgins is suggested as a deeper-league option. Indianapolis has Tyler Warren as its leading tight end, with Will Mallory a possible stash for deep PPR formats. The advice is to explore trades first, then consider starting or adding tight ends where needed.
