Week 11 was not a great week for the tight end position in fantasy, as only six tight ends scored a touchdown and only one topped 100 yards. Tight end week, where have you gone? It was especially bad for standard league scoring, as only four players topped double-digit fantasy points. We did get to see Darnell “Mount” Washington absolutely destroy some guys, so that was fun.

Week 12 byes

Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, Washington Commanders, Miami Dolphins

Tight ends on bye

Evan Engram, Oronde Gadsden, Zach Ertz, Greg Dulcich

TE streamer of the week

Juwan Johnson, Saints vs. Falcons

The Falcons aren’t the best team to use fantasy tight ends against, but the Saints are down to Chris Olave and Juwan Johnson as their go-to receivers and Tyler Shough has worked well with Johnson so far. He’s caught a touchdown in each of his last two games and has been TE13 or better in each of his last four games.

TE injuries

Sam LaPorta, Lions

LaPorta was put on I.R. due to a back injury last week. Brock Wright took over for him, but doesn’t have much upside in fantasy. The usual suspects of Amon Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Jahmyr Gibbs will see upticks in targets most likely.

Dalton Kincaid, Bills

Kincaid missed last week’s game due to a hamstring injury and doesn’t look good for this week’s Thursday night game. Wide receiver Tyrell Shavers stepped up big last week with Keon Coleman a healthy scratch and Kincaid out, but there really is no go-to receiver in the Bills group who we can assume will see extra work with injuries to this receiving core. Khalil Shakir looked like he should have been that guy, but he had just one reception for negative three yards with Kincaid out against the Buccaneers last week.
