Colston Loveland TE | CHI
Bears' Colston Loveland: Ascent continues in win
Loveland brought in four of five targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Loveland finished second in receptions and third in receiving yards for the Bears on the afternoon, and he also recorded the third touchdown reception of his career on a 12-yard grab late in the first half. Loveland's production has started to enjoy some stability, as he's now posted at least 40 receiving yards in four straight contests. The talented tight end next takes aim at the talented Eagles defense in a Week 13 road matchup on Black Friday.

Travis Kelce TE | KC
Chiefs' Travis Kelce: Four catches against Colts
Kelce caught four of six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over Indianapolis.
The yardage total was his lowest since Week 3, but Kelce did record at least four receptions for the fourth straight game, a stretch in which he's delivered a 23-299-2 line on 32 targets. The veteran tight end remains a key part of the Kansas City passing game at age 36, and Kelce could be busier in Week 13 during a Thanksgiving clash with the Cowboys.

Mason Taylor TE | NYJ
Jets' Mason Taylor: Three catches with Tyrod at QB
Taylor caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Ravens.
Taylor didn't see a significant change in production as the Jets benched Justin Fields in favor of Tyrod Taylor (no relation to Mason) at quarterback. Tyrod will likely remain the starter against the Falcons in Week 13. The Jets' rookie tight end has recorded at least three catches in four of the past five games, and that stretch includes Taylor's lone touchdown catch.

Brock Wright TE | DET
Lions' Brock Wright: Three grabs in OT win
Wright caught three of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 34-27 overtime win over the Giants.
With Sam LaPorta (back) looking unlikely to return this season, Wright is the top pass-catching option among Detroit's healthy tight ends, but Sunday's volume doesn't suggest he's going to have a consistent role in the offense. Over two games since LaPorta went down, Wright has managed just a 5-37-0 line on 11 targets. He'll likely need a touchdown to make much of a fantasy impact in Week 13 during a Thanksgiving clash with the Packers.

Michael Mayer TE | LV
Raiders' Michael Mayer: Hurts ankle Sunday
Mayer won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns after sustaining an ankle injury.
Before his departure from the contest, Mayer caught his only target for 14 yards. In his absence, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyon are available to handle TE reps behind Brock Bowers.

Theo Johnson TE | NYG
Giants' Theo Johnson: Career-high 77 yards in OT loss
Johnson caught three of five targets for 77 yards in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions.
Just over half of Johnson's yards came on a 39-yard catch in the fourth quarter. The 2024 fourth-round pick established a new single-game career high for receiving yards, topping his Week 10 total of 75 against the Bears by two yards. Johnson has emerged as a consistent receiving option heading into a Week 13 trip to New England, regardless of whether the Giants start Jameis Winston for a third consecutive game or get rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart (concussion) back.

Mark Andrews TE | BAL
Ravens' Mark Andrews: TD streak halted at three games
Andrews caught one of three targets for nine yards and rushed twice for two yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Jets.
Andrews has exceeded 34 receiving yards only once all season, so he has relied on touchdowns to buoy his fantasy value. After scoring 11 times in the 2024 regular season, Andrews has six total touchdowns in 2025. Four of those six scores came in Andrews' previous three games prior to Sunday's quiet outing. Baltimore's struggling passing offense will look to pick things up Thursday against a Bengals defense that has allowed the most production in the NFL to tight ends.

Mike Gesicki TE | CIN
Bengals' Mike Gesicki: Four catches in return
Gesicki caught four of six targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Patriots.
Making his return from a four-game absence due to a pectoral strain, Gesicki paced Cincinnati tight ends in volume, as Noah Fant, Tanner Hudson and Drew Sample each had just one catch and none topped nine yards. The Bengals' passing game could look very different in Week 13 if Joe Burrow (toe) is ready to return, but with Tee Higgins (concussion) potentially unavailable, there could be targets available once again for Gesicki in a Thanksgiving clash with the Ravens. Through seven appearances this season, he's managed a 12-96-0 line on 22 targets.

Tyler Warren TE | IND
Colts' Tyler Warren: Five catches in Week 12 loss
Warren secured five of seven targets for 45 yards in the Colts' 23-20 overtime loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.
Warren co-led the Colts in receptions and was second in both receiving yards and targets on an afternoon when Daniel Jones threw for a modest 181 yards at 5.8 yards per attempt. The rookie tight end has recorded at least four catches in eight consecutive games, although he's hit the 70-yard mark only twice in that span. Warren will head into a Week 13 home matchup against the Texans with a 55-662-3 line on 74 targets across 11 games.

Hunter Henry TE | NE
Patriots' Hunter Henry: Tops 100 yards against Cincy
Henry caught seven of 10 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals.
The veteran tight end led the Patriots in receptions, targets and yards, capping his big day with a 28-yard TD from Drake Maye in the second quarter. It's the first 100-yard game for Henry since Week 2 of last season, and he's amassed a 41-537-5 line on 63 targets through 12 contests in 2025. He'll look to keep rolling in Week 13 against the Giants.
