TEs to start in Week 13:
Jared Cook (vs. Giants): could step into a bigger role this week. With getting suspended, the Raiders will need someone to step up in the passing game. That guy could be Cook as the Giants allow the most points to TEs this season.
Julius Thomas (vs. Broncos): faces his former team this week. Thomas has become a more reliable TE the past four weeks scoring 7+ points each week. This week he could continue that against a Broncos defense that allows the 4th most points to TEs.
TEs to sit in Week 13:
Tyler Kroft (vs. Steelers): has scored a touchdown in back to back games. Kroft doesn’t get many targets or receptions but he’s gotten into the end zone the past two weeks. Look for that streak to end this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers who allow the 3rd-least amount of points to TEs.
Cameron Brate (vs. Packers): has disappeared recently. Brate has totaled just four receptions in the last four games. It’s hard to trust him to improve from that this week against the Green Bay Packers who are just one of three teams to allow just one touchdown to opposing TEs.
