Efton Chism at Miami — Opportunity Knocks Amid Wide Receiver Injuries

With top targets A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs officially ruled out, New England enters Miami with a heavily depleted wide receiver rotation. Chism has displayed flashes of reliable playmaking throughout the season, but his recent involvement remains modest, having totaled just one reception on two targets over his past two appearances.

Our models project Chism for approximately 2.5 catches and 33 receiving yards (4.7 fantasy points) in what shapes up as a lower-scoring divisional matchup. While vacated perimeter snaps offer sneaky upside, his thin target baseline keeps him strictly as a speculative deep-league option or stash rather than a trusted lineup starter.

Outlook Mark Andrews

Mark Andrews at Buffalo — Shootout Potential Offers Bounce-Back Appeal

Andrews remains Baltimore's top tight end on the depth chart, but his recent production has cooled off, totaling just four catches for 27 yards on seven targets over his past two outings. Fantasy managers have noticeably pulled back, dropping his start rate down to 31% amid a two-game Ravens losing streak.

There is upside for a rebound this week in a projected high-scoring matchup against the Bills. Our weekly projection lands at 9.1 fantasy points, anticipating around 3 to 4 receptions for 35 yards. With Baltimore listed as slight underdogs, game flow could easily tilt toward the pass, keeping Andrews firmly in play as a solid TE1/streamer.
