Week 2 Tight End Outlooks For Fantasy Football
Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals- Fantasy Football Outlook
Tight ends league-wide disappointed in Week 1. As it was, Trey McBride's eight points in half-PPR leagues were still good for a top-10 finish at the position. While his production (five catches for 30 yards) fell short of expectations, fantasy managers found a silver lining in McBride's utilization.
The Cardinals deployed their star tight end on 85% of snaps and he led the team with a 29% target share against the Buffalo Bills last week. In Week 2, Arizona plays the Los Angeles Rams, who give up the fifth-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2023. McBride is a priority target in the Cardinals' passing attack and should enjoy a more productive game.
The 24-year-old is already one of the top options at tight end and should be locked into starting lineups. McBride will be a top-12 tight end in Week 2, and given his usage in Arizona's offense, could find himself at the top by the end of the week.

Isaiah Likely, Baltimore Ravens- Fantasy Football Outlook
Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely became the waiver addition of the week after a huge performance against the Kansas City Chiefs. While Mark Andrews helped with the lack of blocking from the offensive line, Likely was finding plenty of separation to the tune of a 100-yard game.
Now, the Ravens have a committee at tight end with both of them playing a bigger part in the passing game than a lot of wide receivers. If Andrews has to help out blocking again, Likely could be in line for another big game.
The Raiders tight end coverage isn't the best, but they do have Maxx Crosby to worry about. The ultimate decider between Likely and Andrews comes down to the game script, but Likely should be a high-end TE2 even if he doesn't garner 30% of the target share as he did in Week 1.

Brock Bowers, Las Vegas Raiders- Fantasy Football Outlook
Las Vegas Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers had an impressive debut in Week 1, catching six passes on eight targets for 58 yards, good for 11.8 PPR fantasy points. He will look to build off last week's performance in Sunday's matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
The tight end position started in 2024 at an absolute zero temperature, with few tight ends being remotely fantasy-relevant. The 21-year-old's production is extremely promising, especially where he was drafted. He was the best tight end prospect out of the 2024 rookie class and appears to be handling the transition to the NFL well.
Bowers should receive a healthy target volume in Week 2. The Raiders will need his skills to compete with the Baltimore Ravens tough defense. He has the talent to do well in any situation, and fellow Raiders TE Michael Mayer doesn't look to be much of a factor. Despite the tough matchup, Bowers remains a must-start in all formats and is TE8 in the latest RotoBaller Week 2 rankings.
