3 Fantasy Football Tight End Streaming Options For Week 8

C.J. Fiedorowicz, Houston Texans

Owned in 6.8% of ESPN Leagues

C.J. Fiedorowicz has been surprisingly involved for the Houston Texans over the past four weeks, averaging 4.8 catches on 6.8 targets for 57.3 yards, while also adding two touchdowns (more impressive when you consider Brock Osweiler has thrown just five touchdowns during that span). He has at least 7 targets in each of the past three games and has played 65% of the tight end snaps during that span, as opposed to 44% through the first four weeks.

This week, Fiedorowicz draws one of the best matchups in all of fantasy football as a tight ends facing off with the Detroit Lions. Don't believe me? Well, ask Vernon Davis, who was just allowed to pile up his highest yardage total since 2013. Detroit has also allowed more touchdowns to tight ends than any other team since the beginning of last season, allowing 19 scores in 23 games.

Fiedorowicz's volume and matchup make him one of the strongest streaming options this week. If you really want to look smart, figure out how to say his name before you try to brag to your friends when he scores a touchdown for you this weekend. It's "feh-DOR-uh-wits." You're welcome.
