Dalton Schultz News
Friday, July 24, 6:25 AM
Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz saw more than 100 targets and made a career-high 82 catches on his way to a TE11 finish in 2025. Rarely flashy, Schultz is a player who consistently earns the trust of his quarterbacks, and he has now finished as a TE1 in five of the last six seasons despite topping five touchdown catches only once in that stretch. A reliable target-earner, Schultz has caught at least 50 passes in every season since taking over as a full-time starter in 2020, providing a safe fantasy floor at a position where that is often enough. While he has turned in a top five weekly finish only twice in the past two seasons, Schultz has never strayed far from usability. Although he only enters the year as RotoBaller's TE24, it should come as no surprise when he once again enters the weekly streaming conversation in 2026.

Colby Parkinson News
Saturday, August 1, 10:00 AM
According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson is expected to lead the team's deep tight end room once again in 2026. While the Rams have several emerging options behind Parkinson, including second-year pass-catcher Terrance Ferguson, veteran Tyler Higbee, and second-round rookie Max Klare, Parkinson is currently penciled in to lead the room. The 27-year-old emerged as Matthew Stafford's go-to option in this room during the 2025 campaign, finding the back of the end zone eight times and bringing in 43 of his 56 targets. He tallied 408 yards, which also marked a season-best. While Parkinson may see his opportunities limited given the depth of this room as the season progresses, for the time being, he projects to hold high-end TE2 upside in a potent Los Angeles passing attack.
