Martellus Bennett misses practice, and maybe Week 6: Fantasy Implications
New York Giants tight end Martellus Bennett misses practice with a knee injury. We breakdown the fantasy implications.

Fantasy Analysis: Bennett was emerging as a nice sleeper option heading into this season. He provided a big target for quarterback Eli Manning and with the injuries to the receiving corps, he was in line to get some more targets. The 6’7” pass-catching tight end hopes to play this weekend and if he does, he could be a good start. The 49ers have had a more difficult time defending tight ends than they have wide receivers. But with an iffy knee, there the chance he puts up nothing at all. Be cautious with Bennett, and don’t hesitate to outsource for other options.
