Fantasy Impact: Tony Scheffler isn't worth a roster spot at this point, especially with his injury status up in the air. Brandon Pettigrew is the No. 1 tight end in Detroit, so unless he gets injured, Scheffler will remain mostly irrelevant for fantasy purposes. Unless you are in a very deep league, Scheffler is not worth rostering and certainly not worth starting in fantasy football this week.
