New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson has established himself as a favorite target of Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler early in the 2025 season. Through two games, Johnson has been targeted 20 times, hauling in 13 receptions for 125 yards and one touchdown. The 29-year-old has been on the field for New Orleans a ton, which is a trend that should continue in the short term with Saints tight ends Taysom Hill (knee) and Foster Moreau (knee) both sidelined through at least Week 4. Furthermore, New Orleans has been one of the league's most pass-happy teams so far, ranking fourth in the NFL with 80 total pass attempts. Where available, Johnson should be added in all fantasy leagues of 10 or more teams.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray has looked very strong in training camp and is receiving strong buzz from reports. Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated noted that the tight end looks like a "high-end" starter. Throughout his four-year career in Kansas City, Gray has typically taken the backseat to future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce. However, after catching just 28 passes in both 2022 and 2023, Gray was able to enjoy a mini-breakout season in 2024. Last fall, Gray caught a career-best 40 passes for 437 yards and five touchdowns. He enjoyed productive stretch from Weeks 10 through 15 when he averaged a solid 10.2 PPR points per game. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his progression early in the season as he could continue to carve out a role behind Kelce. However, for now, Kelce remains the clear TE1 in Kansas City. Gray is best viewed as a high-upside TE3 in deeper formats.
