Marcedes Lewis Fantasy

The Green Bay Packers placed tight end Marcedes Lewis and linebacker Oren Burks on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Tuesday. There's a chance they could both clear the league's COVID protocols by Sunday, but it remains to be seen if that will happen. Splitting time and targets with Josiah Deguara, Lewis hasn't become a fantasy relevant streamer at the weakest position despite the season-ending injury to Robert Tonyan earlier this year. Lewis has 23 catches (27 targets) for 214 scoreless yards in 15 games played. But if Lewis is out in Week 17 against the Minnesota Vikings, who have allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the position in the last three weeks, Deguara would become a more attractive TE2.

Green Bay Packers tight end Marcedes Lewis faces the Minnesota Vikings in Week 11 after catching two passes for 10 yards in the Week 10 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He logged 57% of the offensive snaps last Sunday and is the Packers' primary tight end with Robert Tonyan (knee) out for the season. The Vikings have been stingy against opposing tight ends and have yet to surrender a touchdown to the position this season. Lewis is mainly used in blocking situations, and fantasy managers can search elsewhere for a TE streamer in Week 11.

Green Bay Packers tight end Marcedes Lewis was targeted once and caught one pass for minus-one yard in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Chiefs. He led the Packers tight ends in offensive snaps (46%), out-snapping teammates Dominique Dafney (40%) and Josiah Deguara (24%). Lewis is Green Bay's primary tight end with Robert Tonyan (knee) out for the season. The 37-year-old owns only four percent of the team's targets and is in a timeshare with Dafney and Deguara. Fantasy managers can search elsewhere for a streaming tight end, as Lewis is a dart throw, at best, in Week 10 against the Seattle Seahawks.
