Cade Otton Remains TE2 for Week 2

Friday, September 18, 11:48 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton played 98 percent of the offensive snaps during last week's season opener against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was on the field for almost all the offensive plays, but still managed to give a lackluster performance. Otton hauled in three of his five targets for 26 yards in the loss. The 27-year-old was third on the team in targets, so there's some hope for him. The Bucs were sloppy with three fumbles in Week 1. They'll look to clean it up in a favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 2. There's a chance that Otton gets more involved this weekend, but until he proves otherwise, fantasy managers should consider him a low-upside TE2.

Mason Taylor Injures Thumb, Doesn't Get On Stat Sheet in Week 2 Loss

Sunday, September 20, 12:53 PM

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor (thumb) exited Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Green Bay Packers after sustaining an injury and failing to make it on the stat sheet. The second-round pick from the 2025 NFL Draft left Sunday's game late, and it is unclear what play he was injured on. Meanwhile, rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq had two catches for 17 yards in Sunday's effort, and wide receiver Garrett Wilson caught the receiving corps' only passing touchdown of the day. It is unclear whether Taylor will miss any time, though fantasy managers have surely moved on already given his lack of production.
