Fantasy Football 2020 Week 9 Rankings: Who to start and sit

Start:

Noah Fant, DEN, @ ATL

Noah Fant has been one of the best late tight end picks of the fantasy football season and that should continue in a matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. Drew Lock has been looking his way a lot and he should be seen as a high TE1 this week with such an awesome matchup.

Albert Okwuegbunam, DEN, @ ATL

We are doubling down here, as the Denver Broncos have become a two tight end type of team. Albert Okwuegbunam, or as he likes to go by “Albert O,” has been fantastic for the Broncos since being activated three weeks back. His chemistry with Lock remains clear and he’s a real threat as a tight end moving forward. Start both of the Broncos big men with ease.

Sit:

Mike Gesicki, MIA, @ ARI

See DeVante Parker to get an idea of what we are saying here. Now, there’s a good chance that Tua Tagovailoa is going to have to stretch the ball out some more in his second career start, but it’s hard to trust Mike Gesicki now or moving forward. Sit him and find a better option this week.

Jared Cook, NO, @ TB

Jared Cook has been one of the beneficiaries of Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders being out back to back weeks, scoring a touchdown, and delivering TE1 numbers. However, both men are expected to return, leaving far too few targets out there for him to be a great value for any team. He best fits on the bench.

Good luck with your Week 9 matchups.
