theSPANKER Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 He put in a limited practice today and has been removed from the injury report. I'm afraid he still may be on a limited snap count until we see otherwise. Is anyone starting him? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Funkhouser Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Yes I’m starting him. There aren’t many other options if any and we probably shouldn’t waste much time thinking about it. Just hope he keeps getting more snaps and it works out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CooL Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Hard to feel confident starting him if he's limited to another 25 or so snaps. Strongly considering grabbing Taysom Hill off the wire and starting him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPackGo23 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I think I'm starting Moreau over him until he actually shows us that he's fully back and getting closer to his normal snap count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm afraid he still may be on a limited snap count until we see otherwise. Is anyone starting him? Out of desperation. Definitely not confident. I mentioned it earlier in the thread but injuries often lead to changes. They may like what they've seen with Bryant and Njoku out there together, or maybe just like what they saw with Bryant in general. I'd expect Njoku's snap percentage to climb closer to what it was earlier in the year, but I'm definitely concerned Bryant eats into his production significantly more than he has been.

Mr_Baller Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Dulcich over him this week. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunCMC Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Starting him .. I'll live with the end results I think the limited snaps news we're hearing recently is all just coach talk. Yeah maybe his 2nd week back from injury he's not right back to 80-90% snaps just yet, but Njoku is still better than most TE's This dude was super consistent before going down & there's about a handful of tight ends I rather own over him Kelce, Andrews, Kittle , Muth (maybe) , Schultz (maybe) And Deshaun returning next week might just take him & this entire offense to a new level.

He’s had his limited snaps in Week 11. Bryant may siphon off targets from Njoku, but it won’t be because of snap counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an update yesterday on Yahoo stating Stefanski said he was unsure if Njoku's workload would see a major increase this week. Complete baloney imo . And Bryant is a JAG not worried about him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nygiants11 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Don’t have anything better on WW at this point so have no choice to fire him up. I think JB really wants to beat Brady and Njoku gives them the best chance to do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm optimistic about this as well. Deshaun has always had bums at TE and still got them decently involved, I feel like he could really utilize Njoku. Everyone should get an uptick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papacapps Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Only other WW options for me would be Moreau or Taysom. I'm saddling up and riding this turkey until the wheels fall off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooskay Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 You can't go wrong starting him if you don't have better options. I made the mistake of starting Knox over Njoku. What a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sungod Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 7 targets, a screen call or two the didn’t *quite* get loose, and a nasty one handed TD on 4th down - glad to have Njoku back and looking full strength. Easy TE1 rest of the way. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owenmills Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Targets were great, but 29 yards out of it is brutal. Luckily one of the catches was a TD He looked healthy though and Watson returning next week so things looking up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunCMC Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Legooo , did anyone watch the game was he out there for most snaps ? Snap count %’s aren't released until a day or 2 after Super Saiyan 3 with Deshaun ? Ohhh yeah ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harck Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 He played nearly every snap, but ceded some routes. 70%ish route participation, trending in the right direction. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's hardly any TE I would call 'safe' right now. He's got a pulse at least, all you can do at TE position is plug guys like that in and pray I hope there's chemistry and but I also hope Watson doesn't suck coming out of the gate. The dude hasn't thrown an NFL pass in almost 2 years. I ain't got time for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nb009 Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Is it a given that Watson starts or is there still a possibility they stay with Brissett? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
