Thomas recorded five receptions on eight targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 31-19 loss to the Giants. He also lost a fumble.

Thomas tied for second on the team in receptions with Terry McLaurin. He made good use of the opportunity by topping 50 receiving yards for the third time this season, due in large part to a 29-yard reception late in the first quarter. However, Thomas also contributed to some of the team's misfortune on the scoreboard, as his fumble led directly to a Giants touchdown. In addition, all three of his uncaught targets were intercepted. Despite those miscues, Thomas should remain a key part of the offense in Week 12 against Dallas, as he has seen at least five targets in five consecutive games.

Schultz secured two of three targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 21-16 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

Schultz played second fiddle to the Texans' top wideout trio, but he still found his way to a serviceable fantasy day with a 20-yard touchdown grab to answer an early Cardinals touchdown in the first quarter. Schultz has multiple receptions in all but one game this season, and although he saw a big downturn in yardage after amassing 201 on 14 receptions over the last two weeks, he remains a trusted target for C.J. Stroud heading into a Week 12 home showdown against the Jaguars.

Njoku recorded seven receptions on 15 targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Pittsburgh.

Njoku quickly emerged as the favorite target of Dorian Thompson-Robinson, as he doubled the targets of any other Browns pass catcher. The entire team's passing attack came in short areas of the field, so it's little surprise that Njoku's yards-per-target and yards-per-catch marks leave plenty to be desired. However, volume alone could be enough for Njoku to be productive if Thompson-Robinson continues to look for him as a safe dump-off option.

McBride brought in five of seven targets for 43 yards in the Cardinals' 21-16 loss to the Texans on Sunday.

McBride didn't put up the same caliber of numbers as in a pair of his recent performances, but he still finished second on Arizona in receptions and targets while checking in third in receiving yards. The second-year tight end has at least five receptions in three of his past four games and should remain an integral part of the air attack in a Week 12 home matchup against the Rams.

Engram recorded four receptions on six targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 34-14 win over the Titans.

Engram kept his typical role in the Jacksonville offense, as he finished tied for second on the team in targets. However, he was limited to short areas of the field, with his longest gain of the day going for 13 yards. That usage is nothing new, as Engram now has under 50 receiving yards in five of his last six contests.

Mayer secured four of five targets for 46 yards in the Raiders' 20-13 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

The rookie tight end teamed up with first-year teammate Aidan O'Connell to tie for third on Las Vegas in receptions and targets while posting his second-highest catch and yardage tallies of his young career. Mayer has multiple receptions in all three games of O'Connell's current starting stint, and he could fill a solid role again in a Week 12 home matchup against a Chiefs defense that has done a very good job of limiting wide-receiver production.

Bellinger caught all three of his targets for 38 yards Sunday in a 31-19 victory versus the Commanders.

Bellinger finished third on the Giants in receiving yards, with his 26-yard reception early in the fourth quarter accounting for most of his total and helping to set up a Saquon Barkley receiving touchdown. Bellinger has stepped in as New York's top tight end over the past three weeks due to Darren Waller (hamstring) being on IR, and he's acquitted himself fairly well with an average of 2.7 catches for 38.3 yards over that span. Bellinger isn't going to set the fantasy world on fire, but he's at least established a decent floor as a fill-in for however long Waller remains out.

Parham caught four of six targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Packers.

Parham put together a season high in yardage while teammate Gerald Everett (chest) was sidelined. Along with Parham's production, fellow tight end Stone Smartt scored a 51-yard touchdown Sunday, giving Los Angeles a great return from the position despite missing its top option. Parham's stock in Week 12 versus the Ravens figures to be somewhat dependent on Everett's availability.

Ferguson caught three of five targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 33-10 win over the Panthers.

Ferguson saw fellow tight end Luke Schoonmaker open the scoring with an 18-yard touchdown during the first quarter. Without a score himself, Ferguson snapped a three-game touchdown streak. The promising second-year pass catcher will now face a quick turnaround ahead of Thursday's Week 12 clash with the Commanders.

Deguara is questionable to return to Sunday's game after suffering a hip injury.

Deguara remains on Green Bay's sideline, and he's getting looked at by the team's medical staff. For the time being, Tucker Kraft should see increased opportunities on the Packers' offense.
