Week 11 Tight End Rankings Outlooks

Harold Fannin Jr., Cleveland Browns

Cleveland Browns rookie tight end Harold Fannin Jr. ranks second on the team in total targets on the season, trailing only wide receiver Jerry Jeudy. Fannin recorded four catches for 44 yards on seven targets in Cleveland's Week 10 loss at the New York Jets. The rookie third-rounder has been a consistent piece of the offense from the start, playing at least 60% of the snaps in every game this season. Fannin has caught at least four balls in five straight games and has been one of the most productive rookie pass catchers in the league despite a poor offensive environment in Cleveland.

Fannin has the fifth most receiving yards (396), third most receptions (42), and the fourth most targets (57) among all rookie wide receivers and tight ends. Fannin will rank as a borderline TE1 in Week 11 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Sam LaPorta, Detroit Lions

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta had a modest outing in his team's Week 10 win over the Washington Commanders, recording five catches for 53 yards on five targets. The 24-year-old has now hauled in 40 receptions for 489 yards and three scores on 49 targets across nine games this season. Other than failing to score a touchdown, LaPorta's showing in Week 10 should be considered another step in the right direction from a fantasy perspective.

After failing to earn five targets or five receptions in three out of the first four weeks of 2025, LaPorta has now hit both those marks in four out of his last five games played. As long as he can stay healthy, LaPorta should remain a consistent feature in the Lions' passing game. He faces a tough matchup in Week 11 when Detroit travels to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles.

Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is considered week-to-week with the hamstring injury that he suffered in Sunday's upset loss to the Miami Dolphins, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Kincaid has been one of the team's top targets this year, catching 29 passes for 448 yards and a team-high four touchdowns, so losing him for any amount of time would be bad news for the slumping Bills. Before getting hurt in Week 10, the 26-year-old caught two of his three targets for 37 yards.

Fellow TE Dawson Knox caught three of his four targets for a season-high 37 yards against Miami with Kincaid injured, and he'll be in play as a touchdown-dependent TE2 streamer in Week 11 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers if Kincaid is unable to play. Fantasy managers should consider Kincaid a highly volatile option for Week 11. Check back later this week to see if he's able to practice.

Oronde Gadsden, Los Angeles Chargers

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden (quadriceps) is considered "day-to-day" after an MRI exam on Monday revealed a quad bruise, a source told Adam Schefter of ESPN. Gadsden injured his quad in the third quarter of Sunday night's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers and never returned with the game already well in hand. The 22-year-old's injury doesn't sound very serious, but fantasy managers will need to keep a close eye on his practice status heading into Sunday's Week 11 tilt on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

If Gadsden isn't cleared to play this weekend, both Will Dissly, who was a healthy scratch on Sunday night, and Tyler Conklin would see additional opportunities in the passing game. Gadsden has quickly emerged in his first NFL season and has been on the low-end TE1 radar in fantasy football, catching 35 passes for 466 yards and two touchdowns in his first eight games.

Theo Johnson, New York Giants

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson caught a season-high seven passes for 75 yards in Sunday's Week 10 loss to the Bears. Since Jaxson Dart took over as the Giants' starting quarterback in Week 4, Johnson has been on a 17-game pace of 66 catches for 644 yards and 12 touchdowns, putting him squarely in the every-week starter conversation. Unfortunately, Dart left Sunday's game with a concussion and will now need to clear protocol before retaking the field, but the Giants boast one of the most tight-end-friendly schedules down the stretch, with fantasy playoff matchups against both the Commanders and Vikings.

While the Giants organization faces turmoil in a week that saw head coach Brian Daboll fired, the connection between Dart and Johnson seems legitimate. As long as the rookie signal-caller doesn't face a prolonged absence, Johnson is a valuable streaming option that should be available on most waiver wires.

Dalton Schultz, Houston Texans

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz caught seven of 11 targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in the team's improbable Week 10 win over the Jaguars. In Davis Mills' first start since 2022, only Nico Collins demanded a higher target share. Schultz has now caught at least five passes for 50+ yards in four of his last five games, proving himself to be an important piece of the Texans' passing offense, regardless of who is under center. While Sunday's fourth-quarter touchdown was his first of the season, he's been able to provide a reliable floor on volume alone.

With C.J. Stroud one week further along in the concussion protocol, Shultz remains in the streaming conversation in another divisional matchup with the Titans in Week 11. And should Stroud be sidelined for one more week, fantasy managers should feel reassured by Schultz's early chemistry with Mills.
