Texans WR DeVier Posey, TE Garrett Graham, FB Greg Jones and TE Ryan Griffin had a minimal impact on the passing game Week 10 against the Cardinals.

Posey did emerge as the club's third receiving option, catching three of his six targets for 34 yards. Griffin managed to score on a 2 yard catch, but had to leave the game with an injury. Graham had just 18 yards on two catches, and Jones caught one ball for 19 yards.

They'll take on Oakland Week 11.

Rams tight end Cory Harkey totaled one catch for 14 yards Week 10 at Indianapolis. He was targeted three times.

Harkey has totaled six catches for 53 yards in nine games. The Rams are on a bye Week 11 before returning to action Week 12 vs. Chicago.

Saints tight end Jimmy Graham, who was questionable with foot and elbow injuries, is active for the game against Dallas. Graham caught four touchdown passes the past two weeks and entered Week 10 leading the league with 10 scoring grabs.

Lions tight end Brandon Pettigrew turned in a solid performance during Sunday's win over the Bears in Week 10.

Pettigrew caught a short pass for a 6-yard gain and a deep pass for a 22-yard gain all in the opening drive. He caught all five of his targeted passes and finished the game with 70 yards (14.0 yards per carry) in a 21-19 victory.

Pettigrew has eight catches for 101 yards over his last two games since his last touchdown against the Bengals in Week 7. He will look to keep rolling against the Steelers in Week 11.

Lions rookie tight end Joseph Fauria failed to make much of an impact as he was held out of the end zone during Sunday's win over the Bears in Week 10.

Fauria was held without a grab until the fourth quarter. He caught a deep 25-yard pass down the middle for his first and only catch of the game. He has just two catches for 40 yards since his three-touchdown game against the Browns in Week 6.

Fauria will try to get back on track against the Steelers in Week 11.

Eagles tight ends Brent Celek and Zach Ertz both failed to make an impact during Sunday's contest against the Eagles in Week 10.

Celek caught a 7-yard pass from Nick Foles in the opening play of the game. He was not targeted again for the rest of the game. Ertz finished the game without a target.

Both tight ends will be seeking a bounce-back game in Week 11 against the Redskins.

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis had his best game of the season in Week 10,  as he hauled in multiple receptions for the first time all season in a 29-27 win over the Titans.

Lewis was targeted a team-high six times in the passing game, and hauled in three of them for 39 yards. He had just two catches for 37 yards entering the game.

The Jaguars face the Cardinals in Week 11. 

Texans OL Brandon Brooks, OL Andrew Gardner, TE Garrett Graham, S Shiloh Keo, WR Keshawn Martin, CB Brice McCain, DT Earl Mitchell, OL Derek Newton, LB Darryl Sharpton and OL Wade Smith are active Week 10 against the Cardinals.

All ten players were expected to play Week 10. Graham had been dealing with a thigh injury, but will play through it.

Eagles tight end Zach Ertz could leapfrog Brent Celek as a sneaky Fantasy play, especially for those who need a bye week replacement heading into Week 10 at Green Bay.

With Nick Foles under center, Ertz was one of his primary targets in Week 9 against the Raiders. He caught five of the six passes throw his way for 42 yards and a touchdown. The veteran Celek was only targeted four times and had three grabs for 27 yards and a touchdown against Oakland.

Ertz has eight catches for 80 yards and a touchdown while Celek has been limited to only six receptions for 53 yards and a touchdown over the past three games. Opposing tight ends have scored 9.50 Fantasy points per game against the Packers this season. Tight ends have only scored twice in the last six games.

Theses two tight ends have been a bit inconsistent to trust as of late, and should only be considered in deeper Fantasy formats for Week 10.

Lions tight end Joseph Fauria has taken a step back as of late and could be a risky option for Week 10 against the Bears in Chicago.

Fauria was held without a target in his previous meeting against the Bears in Week 4. Two games later, he earned the start and caught three passes for 34 yards and three touchdowns against Cleveland in Week 6. Since that game, he has only had one catch for 15 yards on four targets.

Opposing tight ends have cracked the century mark in two of the last four games against the Bears. That said, Fauria's value only comes in the red zone, as he's never had more than 34 yards in a game this season. The Bears have only allowed two touchdowns all season to tight ends. Consider him a risky bye week replacement option for Week 10.
