Week 18 PPR Tight End Rankings for Fantasy Football- Cole Kmet, Juwan Johnson, Dalton Kincaid, Kyle Pitts, Gerald Everett

Updated Week 18 fantasy football tight end rankings for PPR scoring. Set winning lineups with our Week 18 ranks for fantasy football and the 2023 NFL season.

RotoBallers, the final week of the NFL regular season is officially here. While most fantasy football leagues are over, some leagues have two-week championships, team of the week, and league titles on the line. At RotoBaller, we have been with you all season long and are back at it again with our NFL team's Week 18 PPR tight end rankings for the 2023 fantasy football season.

The Ravens, Chiefs, Browns, 49ers, and Rams can't change their current seed in the playoffs, and it's unclear how much playing time tight ends such as Travis Kelce, George Kittle, and David Njoku will have in Week 18. This week will be very challenging for fantasy managers between injuries and resting scenarios. Today, we will look at where essential tight ends such as Cole Kmet, Juwan Johnson, Dalton Kincaid, Gerald Everett, and Kyle Pitts rank in Week 18.

Our PPR fantasy football tight end rankings for Week 18 are assembled by Nick Mariano, Scott Engel, Andersen Pickard, and Brandon Murchinson. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will find a summary of this week's important fantasy football injury news. There are always critical injuries to track, so check back until kickoff.

Week 18 Tight End Rankings Analysis

A new feature has been added to our weekly fantasy football rankings article. Below, you will find our fantasy football outlooks for key options in Week 18, which gives readers a matchup preview of that player and advice on whether to start or avoid for the upcoming week. We provide outlooks for all 32 NFL teams, which can be found on our player profile pages and our fantasy football news desk.

Kyle Pitts, TE, Atlanta Falcons
Week 18 Overall PPR Rankings: 43
Week 18 Tight End PPR Rankings: 107

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has been playing better over the last month or so. In fact, Pitts has 49 receiving yards or more during three of his last five games. The young tight end is coming off a dud but is hopeful to rebound against the New Orleans Saints. The biggest problem is that the Falcons don't have a reliable option at quarterback right now. The expectation is that the team will use a run-heavy approach in Week 18. That being said, Pitts is more of a touchdown-dependent option for this game.

Cole Kmet, TE, Chicago Bears
Week 18 Overall PPR Rankings: 94
Week 18 Tight End PPR Rankings: 12

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (knee) is listed as questionable to play in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Kmet didn't practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday, and managed to put in a full practice on Friday, so he's clearly on the right side of questionable. The 24-year-old was also questionable last week but was active and played a season-low 13 snaps in the Week 17 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

It sounds as though he's healthier this week, which means he should see the field more often. Kmet could see plenty of targets, too, with receiver Darnell Mooney (concussion) already being ruled out. In the season opener against Green Bay, Kmet had five catches on seven targets for 44 yards. Consider him a risky low-end, touchdown-dependent TE1 in fantasy for the Bears' final game of the season at Lambeau Field.

Gerald Everett, TE, Los Angeles Chargers
Week 18 Overall PPR Rankings: 75
Week 18 Tight End PPR Rankings: 7

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett could have a strong end to his season in a Week 18 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Everett has taken on a larger role in the second half of the season with injuries striking several LA pass catchers. With Keenan Allen (heel) likely out and Joshua Palmer (concussion) questionable at best, Everett should have another big role on Sunday afternoon. He has a solid floor and some touchdown upside, making him a solid TE1 for the final week of the season.
