  • Zach Ertz TE | PHI

    Eagles' Zach Ertz: Reverts to practice squad

    Ertz reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    With Dallas Goedert (knee) stil sidelined, Johnny Mundt made the start at tight end for Philly and played 49 of 61 offensive snaps. Ertz saw 13 snaps on offense, running 11 routes on Jalen Hurts' 32 dropbacks. He caught two of four targets for 12 yards and has three catches for 21 yards on six targets across two appearances since signing with the practice squad.

  • Patrick Herbert: Goes back to practice squad

    Herbert reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Herbert played four of the Chargers' 71 offensive snaps during Sunday's 30-23 loss at Seattle, and he added 14 snaps on special teams. He can be elevated once more this season before the Chargers would have to sign him to their 53-man roster to make him eligible to suit up.

  • Greg Dulcich TE | MIA

    Dolphins' Greg Dulcich: Not involved in passing game vs. Minnesota

    Dulcich played 20 offensive snaps but didn't show up in the box score otherwise during the Dolphins' 15-10 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Dulcich and Malik Willis connected on five catches on seven targets for 55 yards against the Chiefs in Week 3, but the duo failed to link up with each other during Sunday's loss. It was the first time since Week 8 of the 2025 season that Dulcich failed to record a target, and perhaps more notably, his 20 offensive snaps were behind rookie third-round tight end Will Kacmarek's 24. The Dolphins will head back to Miami to host the Bengals for Week 5.

  • Cade Otton TE | TB

    Buccaneers' Cade Otton: Leads team in receiving Week 4

    Otton caught four of six targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Packers.

    With rookie Jalon Daniels making his first career start, he leaned on Otton in the passing game, and the tight end ended up leading the team in receiving yards despite seeing one fewer target than Chris Godwin. Otton has turned 23 targets into 15 catches for 157 yards through four games this season.

  • Commanders' Chig Okonkwo: Produces five yards in return

    Okonkwo caught two of four targets for five yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts.

    Returning from a two-game absence due to a hamstring suffered in Week 1, Okonkwo logged 37 of 64 offensive snaps and ran 25 routes on 41 dropbacks. He remains firmly atop the depth chart at tight end in Washington, but it hasn't resulted in much fantasy production.

  • Dalton Schultz TE | HOU

    Texans' Dalton Schultz: Quiet in Week 4 loss

    Schultz caught both of his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.

    With Nico Collins back from his hamstring injury after missing two weeks, Schultz's voluminous pass-catching role evaporated against Dallas. For as long as Collins is healthy, Schultz is little more than a a touchdown-or-bust fantasy option ahead of next Sunday's date with the Titans.

  • AJ Barner TE | SEA

    Seahawks' AJ Barner: One catch in victory

    Barner caught one of three targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 30-23 win over the Chargers.

    Barner wasn't particularly busy in Week 4, garnering three or fewer targets for the third time this season. The tight end remains an unappealing fantasy option as the Seahawks' passing attack funnels through Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and the rest of Seattle's pass-catchers are just reaching for crumbs.

  • Gunnar Helm TE | TEN

    Titans' Gunnar Helm: Logs two-point conversion in Week 4

    Helm hauled in his lone pass for five yards and caught a two-point conversion during the Titans' 24-18 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

    Helm didn't see a target from Cam Ward until the Titans' final offensive drive of the fourth quarter, with the duo connecting on a 5-yard pass before hooking up on a successful two-point conversion. Helm opened the 2026 regular season with four catches (on five targets) for 28 yards against the Jets in Week 1, but in the three games since, he has logged five receptions (on seven targets) for 32 yards. It's hard to hold much stock in Titans position players outside of rookie wideout Carnell Tate and veteran running back Tony Pollard. Helm and the Titans head back home for a Week 5 AFC South showdown against the Texans.

  • Noah Fant TE | NO

    Saints' Noah Fant: Inactive in Week 4

    Fant (abdomen) is listed as inactive for Monday's game against the Falcons.

    Despite being a limited practice participant during Week 4 prep, Fant will miss his first contest of the campaign due to an abdominal injury. Oscar Delp and Treyton Welch thus will serve as the reserve tight ends behind starter Juwan Johnson on Monday. Fant's next chance to play is this coming Sunday versus the Vikings.

  • Hunter Henry TE | NE

    Patriots' Hunter Henry: Season-high 62 receiving yards in win

    Henry finished with five receptions for 62 yards on five targets in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Bills.

    The catch and yardage totals were season-best marks for Henry, who took the field for 49 of the Patriots' 76 offensive snaps (64.5 percent). With fellow tight end Eli Raridon (ankle) making an early exit from the contest and potentially at risk of missing the Patriots' Week 5 game against the Raiders, Henry could be called upon to handle a heftier workload next Sunday.
