Jeff Heuerman could draw first career start

With fellow Broncos' TEs Virgil Green and A.J. Derby both sustaining concussions in Week 15, second-year man Jeff Heuerman could end up being the Broncos' only healthy TE and the de facto starter in Week 16 against the Chiefs. (Denver Post)

Fantasy Impact:

Jeff Heuerman did end up with four targets in Week 15 after Virgil Green got injured, but he should still be ignored in all formats for Week 16, even if Green and Derby end up missing the game. The Kansas City Chiefs (and specifically safety Eric Berry) have been very stingy in terms of allowing production to opposing TEs this season. While some daring DFS players may be looking at him as a contrarian, minimum-priced play this weekend, even that would not be advisable due to the match up and Heuerman's general lack of production thus far.
