Should I Start Brenton Strange?

Wednesday, June 24, 11:11 AM

The Jacksonville Jaguars and standout tight end Brenton Strange agreed to a three-year contract extension on Wednesday worth up to $48 million with $25 million guaranteed, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. In 12 games last season, the Penn State product caught 46 passes for 540 yards and three touchdowns, and he has become a key part of quarterback Trevor Lawrence and the Jaguars' offensive scheme. The 25-year-old was taken in the second round (61st overall) in the 2023 NFL draft, and he has caught 91 of his 122 targets for 986 yards and six touchdowns in 43 regular-season games (26 starts) in his three years in the league. Strange has improved a bit each year in terms of production, and even though the Jags added two rookie TEs in this year's draft, he's expected to be the unquestioned No. 1 pass-catching option at the position again in 2026. With the Jaguars potentially taking another step forward in head coach Liam Coen's offense in Year 2, Strange will be an intriguing TE2 with upside in fantasy drafts this fall. RotoBaller currently has him ranked as the No. 19 fantasy TE.
