Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Trey McBride

Thursday, October 9, 10:56 AM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram found the end zone for the first time this season in Week 5, but his overall production remains underwhelming. Through five games, Engram has caught 12 of 19 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown while struggling to carve out a consistent role in Denver's offense. Engram continues to split reps with Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins, limiting his snap share to just 41%, which ranks 56th among all tight ends. He also ranks 30th in route participation (53.9%) and 27th in fantasy points per game, highlighting his diminished opportunity in Sean Payton's offense. The Broncos face the New York Jets in Week 6, who have allowed the sixth most fantasy points to tight ends this season, but until Engram's usage increases, he's best left on the waiver wire in most formats.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has been the clear number one option in the passing game for Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray so far in 2025. Through four games, McBride has recorded 24 catches for 234 yards and a touchdown on 35 targets. The 25-year-old has a favorable matchup in Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans. Tennessee's defense ranks in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.4), and Titans opponents are averaging 30 points per game. In Week 5, McBride is a must-start fantasy tight end.
