  • Dallas Goedert TE | PHI

    Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Out indefinitely due to shoulder

    Goedert is expected to miss extended time after suffering a shoulder injury in Monday's 32-21 loss to the Commanders, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    The exact nature of Goedert's injury isn't yet known, nor has a timeline for a return been established or a decision been made on whether or not he'll go on injured reserve, but the Eagles don't believe the tight end will be lost for the season. In Monday's game, Goedert recorded three receptions for 23 yards and a touchdown on three targets, but he had a key lost fumble in the fourth quarter. On that lost fumble, Goedert was grabbed in the facemask by a Washington defender, but a penalty wasn't called and Goedert appeared to suffer the injury on the play in question. The Eagles are likely to offer further details on Goedert's injury in the days to come, but expect the team to turn to a combination of Jack Stoll, Grant Calcaterra and Tyree Jackson (knee) to fill in for him at tight end for the next few weeks.

  • Alize Mack TE | TEN

    Alize Mack: Works out for Vikings

    Minnesota will host Mack (undisclosed) for a workout Tuesday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

    Mack, a 2019 seventh-round pick by the Saints, is still vying for a chance to make his NFL debut. He spent time with the Packers this offseason and reached an injury settlement with the team just prior to the start of the regular season.

  • Greg Dulcich TE | MIA

    Broncos' Greg Dulcich: Catches one pass in loss

    Dulcich caught one of four targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Titans.

    After a solid if belated start to his rookie campaign, Dulcich's one-catch performance was a major disappointment for fantasy managers. The 6-foot-4, 245-pound tight end was unable to get anything going as Denver's offensive struggles continued in Week 10. Despite this underwhelming performance, Dulcich played 89 percent of the offensive snaps, and Russell Wilson continues to look his way. With Jerry Jeudy nursing an ankle injury, it's possible that Dulcich could be relied upon even more if the wideout is forced to miss a favorable matchup in Week 11 when the Broncos host the Raiders.

  • Dawson Knox TE | BUF

    Bills' Dawson Knox: Modest production in costly loss

    Knox caught four of six targets for 57 yards in Sunday's loss to the Vikings.

    The 57 yards iare actually a season high for Knox, continuing a disappointing campaign for the fourth-year tight end following last year's 49-587-9 breakout. Through eight games in 2022, he has a modest 24-240-2 line, and among tight ends, Knox's yardage is tied for 22nd while his 24 catches is tied for 20th.

  • Cade Otton TE | TB

    Buccaneers' Cade Otton: Three grabs in win

    Otton brought in all three of his targets for 35 yards in the Buccaneers' 21-16 win over the Seahawks on Sunday.

    Despite the return of Cameron Brate from a neck injury, Otton still out-snapped his teammate by a 46-34 count and also logged one more target. He appears to have Tom Brady's trust -- particularly after hauling in a game-winning touchdown against the Rams in Week 9 -- and the transition from Brate to Otton as the top pass-catching option at tight end is underway. His next opportunity to build on an already solid rookie campaign comes in a Week 12 road matchup against the Browns, following a Week 11 bye.

  • Dallas Goedert TE | PHI

    Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Records TD, fumble in Week 10 loss

    Goedert caught all three of his targets for 23 yards and a touchdown but also lost a fumble in Monday's 32-21 loss to the Commanders.

    Goedert gave the Eagles a 14-7 lead with a six-yard touchdown catch late in the first quarter, but Washington stormed back with 13 unanswered points in the second to take a 20-14 lead into the locker room. After Philadelphia cut the deficit to two in the fourth quarter, Goedert lost possession of the ball while being brought down by his facemask. The facemask went unnoticed but the fumble stood, and Goedert headed to the blue medical tent after the play, adding injury to insult. He returned on the next drive, but the fumble proved to be a pivotal moment in Philadelphia's first loss of the season. After finding the end zone only once through seven games, Goedert has compiled a two-game touchdown streak, which he will look to extend in Week 11 against the Colts.

  • Trey McBride TE | ARI

    Cardinals' Trey McBride: Set for larger role sans Ertz

    McBride is poised for a bigger role in the Cardinals offense with Zach Ertz (knee) out indefinitely, Darren Urban of the team's official site reports.

    Following Ertz's early departure Sunday at the Rams, McBride earned his largest snap share of his rookie campaign, earning 91 percent of the offensive plays. McBride fumbled and recovered his only catch of the day -- which marked his first reception since Week 4 -- but he's hauled in all four of his targets for 31 yards through nine appearances. The 2022 second-round pick will join forces with veteran Stephen Anderson to handle tight end snaps in place of Ertz, potentially for the rest of the season.

  • Austin Hooper TE | ATL

    Titans' Austin Hooper: Season-high five catches

    Hooper recorded five catches on seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Broncos.

    The Titans took to the air more than is typically the case, as Derrick Henry was shut down on the ground. Hooper was a beneficiary, and he logged his highest target and reception total of the season. He did the majority of his damage late, as he tallied three catches for 29 yards in the final quarter. Hooper likely will continue to play a significant role in the passing game, though it's been difficult to predict when the Titans will choose to employ a more aggressive offensive approach.

  • Gerald Everett TE | CHI

    Chargers' Gerald Everett: Deemed day-to-day

    Coach Brandon Staley termed Everett (groin) day-to-day Monday, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Everett made an early exit from Sunday's loss at San Francisco due to a groin injury, finishing with two catches on two targets for 23 yards. In his previous eight appearances this season, he was good for at least a 57 percent share of snaps and averaged 6.6 targets per game, taking advantage of injuries to Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle). The health of all three will be crucial for the Chargers as they gear up for Sunday's NFC West showdown with Kansas City.

  • Will Dissly TE | LAC

    Seahawks' Will Dissly: Brings in two passes

    Dissly caught both of his targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 21-16 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Dissly handled a season-low 21 percent of the offensive snaps, which wasn't far behind Noah Fant (26). The Seahawks frequently utilize two tight-end sets, but they limited their tight-end usage because they were trailing most of the game. Regardless, fantasy managers shouldn't have high expectations for Dissly on a weekly basis, as he has put up a 26-258-3 line through 10 games.
