Ertz caught six of seven targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 24-15 win over the Falcons.

Ertz came back to life with a strong performance last week and carried that over as he accounted for nearly a quarter of the team's receiving yards in the impressive win. His weekly potential will likely continue to suffer from the middling play of Carson Wentz, but Ertz could reestablish some fantasy value for himself if he continues to take advantage of the opportunities he is given. Next week will present a tough test as the Eagles travel to the Pacific Northwest to take on the Seahawks.

Hooper caught just one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 24-15 loss to the Eagles.

Hooper appeared to be establishing himself as a useful piece for the Atlanta offense but he played a minimal role in this game and finished with one of his quietest showings of the season. He could a part to play in some matchups, but the depth of skill position players around him could make lean weeks such as this a common occurrence. Hooper and company will go on bye in Week 11 before taking on the Cardinals the following Sunday.

Swaim (pectoral) will not return to Sunday's game against the Steelers, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Swaim's absence will open the door for Gavin Escobar to see an increased role in the Cowboys' offense. Keep tabs on Swaim's status as Week 11 of practice commences.

Swaim suffered a pectoral injury in Sunday's game against the Steelers and is questionable to return, Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

As long as Swaim remains out of the game, Gavin Escobar will likely take over second-string tight end duties. More will likely be known about Swaim's status as Sunday's contest goes on.

Gray (ankle) will be active for Sunday's tilt against the Chargers.

Gray practiced in full on Friday, so it's not surprise that he'll be suited up and ready to go for Sunday's game. He's slated to serve as Dion Sims' backup at tight end.

Henry (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

Henry is available if you need him this week, but the continued presence and health of veteran Antonio Gates makes the talented rookie TE something of a hit-or-miss Week 10 fantasy option in his return to action.

Gray (ankle) is questionable to play Sunday against the Chargers, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.

Gray was able to practice without limitation Friday, so his game status realistically doesn't appear to be in danger. If he's ultimately cleared to play and Dion Sims (concussion) isn't, the University of Minnesota product projects to step in as the starting tight end once more.

Graham (knee) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game in New England, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The Seahawks have carefully managed Graham's practice workload in an effort to reduce the stress on his surgically repaired knee. With no new injury and no setback, he can safely be deployed as one of the top tight ends in any format.

Henry (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game, Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Henry's game-time status appears to be on the upswing, as the rookie tight end was able to practice fully Friday. You'll want to check his status prior to the 4:05 ET kickoff, but as of now it seems likely that Henry will take the field Sunday against a Dolphins team that has allowed 29 catches, 398 yards and two touchdowns to tight ends this season.

Hooper is slated to start Sunday against the Eagles, since teammate Jacob Tamme (shoulder) will miss a third straight game, ESPN's Vaughn McClure reports.

Hooper will start ahead of fellow tight ends Levine Toilolo and Joshua Perkins once again this weekend. In two starts since Tamme's absence, Hooper has recorded at least three catches on five targets for 40 yards in both games, and he scored his second career touchdown last time out.
