The Top TEs To Start in Week 14
Cole Kmet, Chicago Bears
Cole Kmet may be in the midst of a three-game drought from finding the end zone, but his seven receptions for 43 yards on seven targets against the Vikings in Week 12 showcase he’s still a big part of this passing attack.

Kmet’s 56 receptions for 482 yards and five scores have him as the TE6 overall in PPR formats. Despite a slow day against the Lions earlier this season, Detroit’s defense has given three touchdowns to opposing tight ends over the last two games. Start Kmet with confidence in Week 14.
Tucker Kraft, Green Bay Packers
The expanded role for Tucker Kraft continued against the Chiefs on Sunday night. Kraft hauled in three of his six targets for 37 yards, which is encouraging in comparison to his two receptions on just targets for 15 yards in Week 12.
It could have been an even bigger fantasy performance last week had Love simply elected to throw to the wide-open Kraft as opposed to his other TE — Ben Sims — for an easy score from one yard out.
Look for Kraft to build off of an encouraging Week 13 outing heading into their matchup against the Giants.
