Strange brought in six of seven targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 26-21 win over the 49ers.

Strange finished in a tie with Brian Thomas for the lead in team targets while leading his club in receptions in a solid overall effort. The 24-year-old tight end has produced 19 receptions for 182 yards through four starts, well ahead of his pace across 17 games last season (40-411-2). Strange has quietly entered the fantasy conversation at a shallow position as the Jaguars prepare to face Kansas City on Monday Night Football in Week 5.

Kmet caught three of nine targets for 46 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

After Kmet was targeted a total of seven times in the first three games of 2025, his nine targets in Week 4 was likely a result of Chicago trying to use quick passes to keep the Las Vegas pass rush off Caleb Williams. Despite the busy afternoon, Kmet will need to string a couple of games with high volume to be considered a reliable fantasy option, although his outlook has improved somewhat with rookie Colston Loveland struggling and dealing with a hip injury.

Tremble brought in five of eight targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Panthers' 42-13 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Tremble paced the Panthers in receptions while sharing the team lead in targets as he filled in for Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle), who was inactive. Tremble also recorded his first touchdown reception since Week 18 of last season on a seven-yard pass from Bryce Young to cap off the opening possession of the contest. The fifth-year tight end had four catches over the first two games of the season while Sanders was fully healthy, so if his teammate returns for a favorable Week 5 home matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday, Tremble likely won't see enough volume to have utility in most fantasy formats.

Fannin brought in two of six targets for 24 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday. He also rushed once for one yard.

Fannin posted modest reception and receiving yardage totals, but Joe Flacco continued to target the rookie tight end frequently. The 2025 third-round pick hasn't seen fewer than four targets in any contest, but he's posted just 49 total receiving yards across the last two games after recording a 12-111-0 line in his first two NFL contests. Fannin will try to regain his earlier level of production when the Browns travel to London to face the Vikings in Week 5.

Njoku brought in two of three targets for 11 yards in the Browns' 34-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Joe Flacco completed less than half his 34 pass attempts and was consistently harassed by the Lions' defense, so Njoku's modest numbers weren't necessarily unexpected. The veteran tight end continues to split pass-catching opportunities at tight end with rookie Harold Fannin, who saw six targets Sunday. Njoku's totals were season lows across the board, leaving him to try and bounce back against a capable Vikings defense during a Week 5 matchup in London.

Schultz recorded five receptions on six targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Titans.

Schultz tied for the team lead in targets with Nico Collins, though he was used entirely in short areas of the field. The tight end's longest reception went for only nine yards, and he has yet to record a 20-yard gain on any of his 16 catches this season. Schultz has also yet to reach 40 receiving yards in a game.

Kincaid secured one of two targets for a 28-yard touchdown in the Bills' 31-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Kincaid made his one catch count by streaking down the right sideline for a touchdown midway through the fourth quarter. The reception and receiving yardage totals were both low-water marks for the tight end over the first four weeks, but with three touchdowns already on his 2025 ledger, he's still rewarded fantasy managers despite the relative week-to-week uncertainty inherent in the Bills' air attack. Kincaid next sets his sights on the Patriots' defense, which he'll face in a Week 5 home matchup next Sunday night.

Henry secured both targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 42-13 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

The veteran tight end continued to flash encouraging chemistry with Drake Maye, getting into the end zone for the third time in the last two games on a 31-yard catch to cap off the first drive of the second half. Henry's reception and target totals have fluctuated considerably week to week, but a Week 5 road battle against the Bills next Sunday night could well turn out to be one of his busier games considering New England figures to have to remain aggressive on offense.

LaPorta recorded three receptions on four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Browns.

LaPorta remained a top priority in the Detroit offense -- he finished third on the team in targets behind only Amon-Ra St. Brown (seven) and Jameson Williams (eight) -- but he turned in another underwhelming performance. Despite logging a reception of 27 yards just before halftime, he now has less than 40 receiving yards in three of four games this season. LaPorta has also yet to score, with St. Brown and Jahmyr Gibbs instead dominating touches near the end zone.

Goedert brought in all four of his targets for 37 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 31-25 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Goedert tied for the team lead in receptions with Saquon Barkley while setting the pace in receiving yards, and he was also on the receiving end of both of Jalen Hurts' scoring tosses. Each of the touchdown grabs was unconventional, with Goedert first crossing the goal line on a nifty two-yard underhand pass from Hurts in the first quarter and then finding paydirt again on a second-quarter shovel pass from five yards out. Goedert is on a bit of a scoring surge with three total touchdown catches in the last two games, and he could be busy again in Week 5 at home against a Broncos team that could force Hurts to get the ball out quickly.
