10 TE sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 3
By Jakob Ashlin
2. Maxx Williams, Arizona Cardinals
Rostered: 2.3%
Maxx Williams was a non-factor in the passing game against the Tennessee Titans in Week 1, as he failed to record a reception and was only targeted once. Surprisingly, Williams bounced back with a big game against the Minnesota Vikings with seven receptions for 94 yards.
Williams only has a total of 398 receiving yards over his last three seasons with the Cardinals. In addition, Kyler Murray has a plethora of other weapons including DeAndre Hopkins, A.J. Green, and Rondale Moore.
It will be hard to trust Williams this week. Still, he should be on the fantasy radar after his breakout performance.
1. Chris Manhertz, Jacksonville Jaguars
Rostered: 0.0%
James O’Shaughnessy suffered an ankle injury against the Denver Broncos. Now, Chris Manhertz will become the starting tight end.
Up to this point, Manhertz has not been fantasy-relevant. His only reception was a 22-yard touchdown in Week 1.
Due to O’Shaughnessy’s injury, Manhertz is a sleeper in deep leagues.
