After a 2024 campaign in which he set career highs as a receiver, Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith has been surprisingly quiet to start 2025. Smith's limited participation in practice leading up to the Week 4 win over the Minnesota Vikings could explain his minimal involvement in that game, but his lack of utilization through the first three weeks was equally puzzling. Ideally, Pittsburgh used its Week 5 bye to find ways to get Smith going. This week, the 30-year-old will take on the division-rival Cleveland Browns, who have been tough on tight ends this year. His usage, alongside that of Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington, will be worth monitoring, but Smith remains off the fantasy radar in most formats.

Ferguson continues to produce like one of the best tight ends in the NFL in 2025. Through five games, the 26-year-old has hauled in 41 catches for 272 yards and three touchdowns on 48 targets. Ferguson looks like a must-start player at the tight end position heading into a juicy Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.
