BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 45% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Washington Commanders tight end Logan Thomas continues to play a key role in the Washington offense. On Sunday, Thomas was targeted eight times in the team's 38-31 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, catching six of those for 44 yards and a touchdown.
That followed last week's four-catch, 51-yard effort against the Giants. While Thomas isn't tearing the world up, he's getting targets, something that's half the battle when it comes to the tight end position in fantasy leagues.
Over the past four weeks, Thomas has had six or more targets three times. Sure, there was a real stinker mixed in there as he saw just one target in a win over the Falcons, but for the most part, the Commanders are working to get the ball to Thomas.
He's also been on the field for a large percentage of Washington's snaps. Taking out the Week 2 game where he exited early with an injury, Thomas has played at least 68% of Washington's snaps in every game so far.
While Thomas isn't in the elite tier of tight ends, his volume and the fact that he's found the end zone three times already this season make him a borderline TE1 going forward. There are surely going to be a couple more dud games, but if you don't have a top-10 player at the position, Thomas is a great fantasy option. Add him in 12-team leagues.
