The Denver Broncos (4-2) will host the New York Giants (2-4) in Week 7. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Evan Engram.
Is Evan Engram Playing in Week 7?
Engram is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Broncos’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Evan Engram in Week 7?
There are breadcrumbs being laid by Sean Payton and I’ll scoop them up.
Evan Engram had three catches in the first quarter against the Jets last weekend. He followed it up with a rush and a reception in succession during the second quarter.
This is what we had dreams of this offseason, and maybe it’s coming. I’m not fully ready to invest just yet (he had just one catch for the rest of the game and has yet to reach a 50% snap share), but there is at least positive momentum, and that’s worth a ton at this position.
I’m going to continue to rank Engram above the streaming tier and think it’s more likely that he elevates to the next tier up as opposed to falling back into the “how lucky do you feel” tier at the toughest position to feel good about in fantasy sports.
