  • Sam LaPorta TE | DET

    Lions' Sam LaPorta: Perfect on five targets

    LaPorta recorded five receptions on five targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    LaPorta finished third on the team in targets behind both Jameson Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown, though he still managed to record at least five catches for the fourth time in his last five games. LaPorta logged a pair of 14-yard catches to account for most of his production, and he's now topped 50 receiving yards four times in the same five-game span. He'll remain a consistent part of the Detroit offense, but his upside will be limited on many occasions by St. Brown and Jahmyr Gibbs.

  • Dawson Knox TE | BUF

    Bills' Dawson Knox: Three catches in Week 10 loss

    Knox secured three of four targets for 37 yards in the Bills' 30-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Knox saw a slightly larger role than usual, partly due to Dalton Kincaid exiting early because of a hamstring issue. Both Knox's reception and receiving yardage totals were season highs, and the veteran could be in for another relatively busy day if Kincaid is sidelined for a Week 11 home matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Trey McBride TE | ARI

    Cardinals' Trey McBride: Goes off against SEA

    McBride finished with nine receptions on 13 targets for 127 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-22 loss to the Seahawks.

    McBride turned in his finest performance of the year in the Cardinals' ugliest loss of the season. Most fantasy managers couldn't care less about the game result after the stud tight end went off for his first 100-plus-yard game of 2025. McBride continued his newfound prowess in the red zone with QB Jacoby Brissett under center, nabbing his fifth touchdown (sixth overall) in the four games the veteran backup has started. The 25-year-old McBride will look to continue feasting against an injury-riddled 49ers defense next Sunday.

  • Tommy Tremble TE | CAR

    Panthers' Tommy Tremble: Continues to underwhelm Sunday

    Tremble was not targeted during Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Saints.

    The 25-year-old was Carolina's only active tight end who failed to draw a target in Sunday's loss, while Ja'Tavion Sanders caught all five of his targets for 32 yards and Mitchell Evans couldn't catch his lone look. Over the Panthers last four games, Tremble has caught just two of three targets for four yards, cementing his status as a blocker rather than a receiving threat. He'll likely maintain a similar role in the Week 11 matchup against the Falcons.

  • Will Dissly TE | LAC

    Chargers' Will Dissly: Healthy scratch Week 10

    Dissly (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

    Dissly will be sidelined for a third consecutive game, with two of his absences as a result of a healthy scratch. The Chargers will go with three active tight ends for Sunday night's game in Oronde Gadsden, Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin.

  • Dalton Schultz TE | HOU

    Texans' Dalton Schultz: Gets into end zone in Week 10

    Schultz caught seven of 11 targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-29 win over the Jaguars.

    The veteran tight end saw a season high in targets and topped 50 receiving yards for the fourth time in the last five games, this time with Davis Mills at QB instead of C.J. Stroud (concussion). Schultz capped his day with his first TD of the season, a seven-yard strike from Mills in the fourth quarter as the Texans put together a stunning comeback from a 29-10 deficit. Schultz will take a 45-438-1 line on 59 targets through nine contests into a Week 11 tilt against the Titans.

  • Cade Otton TE | TB

    Buccaneers' Cade Otton: Stellar numbers in loss

    Otton secured nine of 12 targets for 82 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-23 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

    Otton led the Buccaneers in receptions and was second to Emeka Egbuka in both receiving yards and targets. All three components of the tight end's receiving line also qualified as season highs, and he's now exceeded 50 receiving yards in four of the last five games. Given both Chris Godwin (fibula) and Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) could remain out for next Sunday's Week 11 road matchup against the Bills -- while Mike Evans (IR, collarbone/concussion) remains on injured reserve -- Otton may have another busy afternoon.

  • Theo Johnson TE | NYG

    Giants' Theo Johnson: Sets career highs in catches, yards

    Johnson caught seven of eight targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Bears.

    Johnson set career highs in targets, catches and receiving yards. He has built nice chemistry with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, but Dart exited in the second half due to a concussion. It may be more difficult for Johnson to build on this strong outing if he's catching passes from backup quarterback Russell Wilson in Week 11 against the Packers.

  • Bears' Colston Loveland: Follows breakout with 55-yard game

    Loveland caught all four of his targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Giants.

    Loveland finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Rome Odunze (86), though this was a substantial step back from Loveland after the rookie first-round pick broke out for 118 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 9 win over the Bengals. Prior to Week 9, Loveland hadn't exceeded 38 receiving yards in a game, but he looks to have surpassed Cole Kmet as the go-to pass catcher among Chicago's tight ends heading into a Week 11 road matchup against the Vikings.

  • Panthers' Ja'Tavion Sanders: Five receptions against Saints

    Sanders caught all five of his targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 17-7 loss to New Orleans.

    It was the second-highest reception total of the season for the second-year tight end, after a 7-54-0 line in Week 2. Sanders is still looking for his first touchdown of 2025, and Carolina's limited passing attack might not give him many opportunities to end that drought. Sanders will take a 20-148-0 line on 25 targets through seven games into a Week 11 clash with the Falcons.
