Colston Loveland
vs Davante Adams

“TEs Colston Loveland has one catch for three yards through the first two weeks of the season. Caleb Williams ’ hamstring injury hurts all Bears pass-catchers, but Loveland turns into a player that I would advise starting with either Tyson Bagent or Case Keenum at QB. Tucker Kraft ’s return from a torn ACL has been slower than fantasy managers would have hoped for when drafting him, but the increase to 98% of snaps is a sign of encouragement.”

“Loveland may not mean as much to Ben Johnson ’s offense as Trey McBride or Brock Bowers mean to their offenses, limiting his ceiling when comparing him to the other elite TEs.”

“How crazy is it that Colston Loveland has combined for only one catch for three yards in two games? An absolutely insane outcome compared to the hype he was getting coming into the season. We have no choice but to downgrade Loveland moving forward, especially with Caleb Williams out for the foreseeable future.”

“I was always skeptical that Loveland would reach his elite ceiling, and he certainly hasn’t done anything to change that impression. If you can move him for a top-half TE1 price tag, do it.”

“Colston Loveland ‘s 0.05 YPRR is utterly painful considering he’s run the 6th most routes of any TE.”

“Chicago will be without quarterback Caleb Williams for the near future due to his hamstring injury, so the time to “buy low” on a potential bounce-back for Loveland is now.”

“Loveland was always going to need consistent involvement AND reliable quarterback play to become the weekly TE1 fantasy managers drafted him to be. Unfortunately, the next man up for the Bears at QB is Tyson Bagent who hasn’t thrown a TD since 2023. As it stands, the panic alarm is screaming for Loveland.”

“With Puka Nacua out, Adams has answered that question loudly. He’s winning at all three levels — short, intermediate, and deep — all over the field. Watch this and tell me it looks like a 33-year-old receiver: Davante Adams got it and got going for 49 yards!”

“Davante Adams is a must-start with Puka Nacua not expected to play, and Terrance Ferguson is an interesting play at TE.”

“Puka’s long-term injury status should be fine, but Adams is a WR1 if Puka misses any more time with a potential suspension. Parker Washington Parker Washington has proven that he is clearly the Jacksonville Jaguars ’ best WR. Washington is second in the NFL in target share and third in air yards (37%) through two weeks.”

“Davante Adams – 10 targets, 8 rec Terrance Ferguson – 9 targets, 6 rec The Rams bounced back on Monday night after their dud in Australia. Adams posted double-digit targets for the first time since Week 5 of last season and turned them into two TDs and nearly 200 yards. As for Ferguson, the second-year TE more than doubled his highest single-game target output from last season, when he never saw more than four.”

“Injury Report RAMS Out: S Kamren Kinchens Doubtful: WR Jordan Whittington Questionable: WR Puka Nacua GIANTS Questionable: CB Deonte Bank, LB Micah McFadden Top Captain Plays Davante Adams $13,200 Adams is my favorite CPT under the Puka-out assumption. He led the NFL with 14 receiving TDs last season, and I want exposure where the Rams’ passing production runs through him after he was buns against the 49ers last week. This feels like a bounce-back spot.”

“Davante Adams (WR – LAR) Inside Sean McVay’s pass‑heavy offense, Davante Adams remains a high‑end fantasy player. Even while playing next to Puka Nacua’s historic WR1 season, Adams scored 14 touchdowns in 14 games.”

“He’s only finished outside the top 15 of fantasy receivers once since 2015, and that was due to an injury-shortened campaign back in 2019. Adams has eclipsed the 1,000-yard receiving mark in six of the past eight seasons (missing out on his seventh by only three yards).”
