The Bottom Line

Chigoziem Okonkwo is the better fantasy play this season.

Chigoziem Okonkwo vs Luke Musgrave: The Full Breakdown

Chigoziem Okonkwo and Luke Musgrave are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Chigoziem Okonkwo averaged 6.5 PPG across 16 games with the Tennessee Titans, while Luke Musgrave posted 4.8 PPG in 14 appearances for the Green Bay Packers.

A 1.7-PPG gap gives Chigoziem Okonkwo the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.

Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Chigoziem Okonkwo had 42 catches for 462 yards; Luke Musgrave posted 30 for 335. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.

Chigoziem Okonkwo has his bye in Week 5, and Luke Musgrave rests in Week 10. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
