Evan Engram Fails to Meet Expectations During First Year in Denver

Tuesday, February 17, 4:41 AM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram had a frustrating 2025 season, failing to live up to preseason expectations. Engram signed with the Broncos after three years in Jacksonville. He had been a top-five fantasy tight end in two of his three years with the Jaguars, and the one exception was his injury-shortened 2024 campaign. Fantasy managers had high hopes for Engram in Denver, where he could have played the "joker" role in Sean Payton's offense. Instead, he was held to just 4.75 targets per contest, and he finished the year with just one touchdown. These subpar stats resulted in Engram ranking as the overall TE29 in PPR leagues, which was the lowest single-season mark of his career (minimum 10 games played). It doesn't seem like this year was a fluke, either. Engram truly just struggled to get on the field, playing fewer than 50% of the offensive snaps in 13 of his 16 contests. Barring a major scheme change this offseason, we can expect a similar pattern for Engram in 2026. He's a risky redraft option in next summer's drafts. Meanwhile, dynasty managers might want to trade Engram while they still can, capitalizing on any name value he has left.

Dalton Kincaid Facing More Competition for Targets

Thursday, March 5, 5:51 PM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid had a disappointing finish to the 2025 season due to hamstring and knee injuries, and his dynasty fantasy stock continues to fall after the announcement on Thursday that the Bills traded for receiver DJ Moore. Despite playing in a career-low 12 games last year due to injuries, Kincaid had a career-high five touchdowns. However, he also finished with a career-low 39 receptions for 571 yards on 49 targets. It was revealed after the season that he played through a PCL injury that he initially suffered in 2024. Kincaid didn't play over 50% of the offensive snaps after Week 5 and missed five games down the stretch of the regular season. The 26-year-old has teased upside so far in his three NFL seasons. Kincaid should be better if he's healthier in 2026, but the addition of Moore won't do him any favors.
