START ‘EM

2. player. 53. . Tight End. Browns. David Njoku

David Njoku hasn’t been the offensive weapon that Browns fans were hoping for so far, but with Josh Gordon off to New England, there’s one less target in Cleveland. Njoku has hauled in seven receptions for 33 yards in two games and hasn’t found the end zone yet.

Last week, the Jets allowed Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby to find the end zone, but otherwise held the Miami tight ends to not much production. While David Njoku isn’t the best option to start this week, it’s slim pickings if you don’t have one of the top options in the league.

Tyrod Taylor has targeted Njoku 14 times in two games and is trying to find his big weapon down the field. Like I mentioned earlier, without Josh Gordon competing for targets, Njoku might be seeing his production increase and hopefully he can find the end zone for the first time in 2018 this week.
