Kenyon Sadiq or Mark Andrews: Who Should You Start?

The call

• New York listed Mason Taylor and Jeremy Ruckert as its starting tight ends and omitted Sadiq, so he's the third option for whatever targets the position sees.
• OC Frank Reich said they'll have to "scale it back" and can't rush his workload after missed camp time — that's a rookie on a snap ramp, not a startable role.
• A 5.1-point projection at TE20 with an 18.3 implied team total gives him no volume or scoring-environment path to a usable week.
• Only a Taylor or Ruckert absence would put Sadiq in the streaming conversation; until then he's a bench stash.

The call

• Baltimore's 26.5 implied team total as a 3.5-point favorite means plenty of scoring chances, and Andrews is the one target who converts those trips inside the 10.
• A 17% target share on 62% of snaps is a route-running specialist's usage — he's not a blocker padding volume, he's the designed passing-game piece.
• TE15 and 10.1 projected points is exactly the tier where touchdown equity breaks ties, and Andrews carries more of it than almost anyone ranked near him.
• Risk is the 62% snap share capping his floor if Baltimore grinds out a lead on the ground — he's a start, not a set-and-forget.
