Brock Wright Fantasy

The Detroit Lions placed rookie tight end Brock Wright on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. Team also put linebacker Josh Woods on Injured Reserve and activated defensive end Jashon Cornell from the Non-Football Injury list. In three games since T.J. Hockenson (hand) was lost for the rest of the year, Wright has only six receptions for 24 yards on nine targets while sharing tight end responsibilities with Shane Zylstra (knee), who is also now out for the final two games of the regular season. The Lions will have to elevate Nick Eubanks from the practice squad for Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks, as they currently have no TEs on their active roster with Wright going on the COVID list.

Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright is expected to start on Sunday with T.J. Hockenson (hand) listed as doubtful. The undrafted rookie hauled in two of three targets for 28 yards and a touchdown last Sunday. In addition to Hockenson, the Lions are expected to be without running backs D'Andre Swift (shoulder) and Jamaal Williams (COVID-19) against the Broncos in Week 14. As such, there is a clear path to volume for Wright. Still, he can be left on waivers in the vast majority of fantasy formats.
