Dalton Schultz a Fringe TE2 in London

Saturday, October 17, 3:15 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz has multiple catches in every game this season and showed a high ceiling with a 12-catch performance against the Bengals in Week 2. He only has a total of eight catches in his three games since then, though, after recording three catches for 30 yards against the Titans in Houston's first win of the season last week. The team added wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. in a trade this week, who will also compete for targets from C.J. Stroud, meaning Schultz's target share could shrink even more in the coming weeks. He will remain a possession and check-down option, but he's not getting enough reliable looks to make him a starting tight end in standard-sized leagues. In his Week 6 matchup against Jacksonville, he's the No. 21 tight end in RotoBaller's PPR rankings this week, making him a low-end TE2 in most formats who should only be started in case of emergency in most formats.

Harold Fannin Jr. Turns in a Second Consecutive Bust Performance

Sunday, October 18, 6:48 PM

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. caught one of his three targets for nine receiving yards during Sunday's Week 6 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Cleveland pulled off an upset win at home on Sunday, and while Fannin handled a very large snap share, his target volume wasn't quite as significant. The second-year tight end finished Week 6 with an 88.9% snap share, as opposed to a mere 10% target share. He has now been held to just one catch in back-to-back games, which doesn't inspire a ton of confidence for fantasy managers heading into Week 7. Time and time again, we've seen Fannin show that he has TE1-caliber talent, but we wouldn't blame managers who consider benching him next week despite a favorable matchup against the 1-5 Tennessee Titans.
