Should I Start Marlin Klein?

Friday, April 24, 5:02 PM

The Houston Texans have selected University of Michigan tight end Marlin Klein with the 59th overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft. Across 11 games with the Wolverines in 2025, Klein recorded 24 receptions for 248 yards and one touchdown. While Klein's collegiate numbers don't stand out, he's regarded as a high-upside developmental prospect. Klein won't necessarily be expected to contribute right away in Houston, as the Texans have Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover atop their tight end depth chart. As a result, Klein has more fantasy appeal in dynasty formats than redraft leagues for 2026.
