Week 8 Fantasy Football Rankings: Tight Ends

Taysom Hill is making his presence felt.

Welcome to Week 8 of the fantasy football season!

If you survived “bye-maggedon,” you’ll have an easier time with your starting lineups this week with no teams on a bye. I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system, which you can use in coordination with the Week 8 edition of Start Em, Sit Em.

At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At tight end, Dalton Schultz is back in the top 10 after a bye and Jake Ferguson is worth a look for those in need based on a plus matchup against the Rams. Taysom Hill, who has had two good games in a row, is now a top-15 option at the position.

Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
