Fantasy Impact
Witten has been productive over the past few weeks, a welcome sight for his fantasy owners. After averaging five targets and only 38 yards per game over the first seven weeks of the season, Witten has averaged seven targets and 55 yards over the past three weeks. Witten has also found the endzone in three of the past five games, serving as a safety blanket for Brandon Weeden and Tony Romo. The Giants rank 23rd against tight ends this year and backup tight end Gavin Escobar had two touchdown catches against the Giants earlier this season; Witten may be a lower tier TE1 this week, but could have a good Week 12 performance.
