Harold Fannin vs Jake Tonges: Who Should You Start?
If you are choosing between Harold Fannin and Jake Tonges for your lineup, you are not alone. Harold Fannin finished the 2025 season at 9.4 PPG for the Cleveland Browns (16 games), and Jake Tonges averaged 4.5 for the San Francisco 49ers (17 games).
That 4.9-point weekly advantage for Harold Fannin is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Harold Fannin is the volume tight end in this matchup with 72 receptions for 731 yards, while Jake Tonges profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (5 scores on 34 catches). In weeks where Jake Tonges finds the end zone he out-scores Harold Fannin, but the floor gap is real.
Harold Fannin has his bye in Week 10, and Jake Tonges rests in Week 9. 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.
