Greg Dulcich vs Theo Johnson: Who Should You Start?
Greg Dulcich and Theo Johnson are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Greg Dulcich averaged 5.0 PPG across 10 games with the Miami Dolphins, while Theo Johnson posted 7.0 PPG in 15 appearances for the New York Giants.
A 2.0-PPG gap gives Theo Johnson 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.
Theo Johnson is the volume tight end in this matchup with 45 receptions for 528 yards, while Greg Dulcich profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (1 scores on 26 catches). In weeks where Greg Dulcich finds the end zone he out-scores Theo Johnson, but the floor gap is real.
Greg Dulcich has his bye in Week 6, and Theo Johnson rests in Week 11. 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.
