Texans, Dalton Schultz Agree on One-Year Extension

Friday, March 6, 1:04 PM

The Houston Texans and tight end Dalton Schultz agreed on a one-year contract extension worth $12.6 million on Friday, sources told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Schultz now has $17.6 million guaranteed in 2026 and 2027. The Texans will reward the 29-year-old after finishing up his third year with the team in 2025. The former fourth-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 out of Stanford caught a career-high 82 passes on a career-high 106 targets for 777 yards and three touchdowns in 17 regular-season games last year in his eighth year in the league. Schultz's numbers made him the TE11 in half-PPR scoring in 2025, averaging 8.0 fantasy points per game. He is a trusted weapon over the middle for quarterback Dalton Schultz and should remain a low-end TE1/high-end TE2 target in fantasy football drafts this fall. Schultz has 194 grabs for 1,944 yards and 10 touchdowns in his three years in Houston.

Tyler Warren Profiles as the Clear Lead Target-Earner in Indianapolis

Friday, March 13, 2:43 PM

Across 17 games as a rookie in 2025, Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren recorded 76 receptions for 817 yards and four touchdowns on 112 targets. Like the rest of the Colts offense, Warren's production faded as the season progressed. After Indianapolis' Week 11 bye, the 23-year-old failed to log more than five receptions for 45 receiving yards in any of the team's final seven contests. Still, Warren showed significant upside in his first NFL campaign and should be well-positioned to re-capture some of his first-half magic in 2026. For one, the Colts should be getting back quarterback Daniel Jones (Achilles), who missed the team's final four games of 2025 after suffering a torn Achilles tendon. Perhaps most importantly, Indianapolis traded wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers, opening the door for Warren to be the team's clear lead target-earner in 2026 and beyond. Warren should be considered an elite dynasty tight end option for fantasy managers.
