Who Should I Start? Dalton Schultz or Cade Otton

Monday, November 17, 7:29 PM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz (shoulder) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's estimated injury report, according to ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime. It's an injury that Schultz has been dealing with for the last month, but he's played in the last four games and should be good to go for this Thursday night's tilt against the Buffalo Bills in Week 12, barring a setback. The 29-year-old got off to a slow start in 2025, not going over 39 receiving yards in any of his first four games. Since Week 7, though, he has 30 catches on 41 targets for 303 yards and a touchdown in five games. Schultz has been heavily involved with quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) out of the last two games, too, catching 13 of 20 targets for 104 yards and a score. Even if Stroud is out again this week, Schultz will be on the TE1/2 borderline in fantasy football.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton has been making the most of his extra targets lately. Last week, Otton saw 12 targets while hauling in a season-high nine passes for 82 yards in the loss to the New England Patriots. The handful of injuries to his offense has made Otton a viable option lately. Otton has been able to produce 40 receiving yards or more in each of his last five games. He has done enough on the field to warrant using as a low-end TE1 for the upcoming matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
