NFL Playoff League Tight End Rankings for Fantasy Football: Travis Kelce, Sam LaPorta, Mark Andrews, Zach Ertz, Cade Otton, Dalton Kincaid, Tucker Kraft

Sam LaPorta - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Our updated 2025 NFL Playoff League fantasy football tight end rankings. Set winning lineups with our fantasy football tight end rankings geared towards NFL postseason contests.

The NFL postseason is here, which means it's time to compete in playoff leagues for fantasy football! To kick things off, we are here to guide you in setting the best possible lineup for your playoff rosters with our 2025 NFL playoff league tight end rankings. Today, you will see where our team ranked vital tight ends, such as Travis Kelce, Sam LaPorta, Mark Andrews, Zach Ertz, Cade Otton, Dalton Kincaid, and Tucker Kraft.

Our fantasy football playoff rankings below are geared toward playoff league formats and take into account how far we think each team will get in the NFL playoffs. In most leagues, you can choose just one player from each NFL team for your roster. It's just like seasonal leagues but drafting a playoff roster. For example, if you select Mark Andrews as one of your TEs, you can't use Lamar Jackson or Derrick Henry. The goal is to choose the best combination of players who will play the most games (i.e., who will make it to the Super Bowl) and score the most points.

In addition to our playoff league rankings, below you will find a summary of this week's important fantasy football injury news. There are always vital injury situations to keep track of, so check back until kickoff. Good luck, RotoBallers!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

 

Join A Playoff League Contest

Playoff leagues are a fun way to kick off a fresh new fantasy football contest for the 2024 NFL postseason. For most of us, we've been left with a void and that weekly excitement with season-long fantasy football leagues all wrapped up. There will be DFS contests all through the Super Bowl, but playoff league formats are really fun and replicate that season-long feel.

Most of these contests will require you to choose only a single player from each NFL team and to fill out a certain amount of roster spots at each position. There are many different contests out there, but our friends at FFPC of course hold their awesome Playoff Challenge tournaments -- including one with a $500K grand prize to the first-place winner.
