  Patriots | Hunter Henry questionable to return, Raridon takes over as top TE    Sun Nov 1, 05:28 PM

Patriots TE Hunter Henry left Sunday's Week 8 game at the Dolphins early with a foot injury and is questionable to return. Henry appeared to suffer the injury on a four-yard completion in the second quarter and spent multiple minutes in the blue medical tent before departing to the locker room; he was the team's top receiver with three catches for 30 yards before leaving. Rookie TE Eli Raridon took over as the top tight end, with Cameron Latu and rookie Tanner Arkin also active at the position. The Patriots were already without WR A.J. Brown and RB TreVeyon Henderson and have just four active wide receivers.

  Browns | Fannin catches 10 passes for 154 yards in loss to Steelers    Sun Nov 1, 04:10 PM

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught 10 passes for 154 yards on 12 targets and lost 1 fumble in Sunday's 27-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was projected for 8.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 18.4.

Footballguys view: Fannin was Deshaun Watson's main man against a Steelers defense that was playing prevent for most of the second half nursing a big lead. The tight end has been up and down in his second year, but this result will boost him past where he was ranked in drafts and set him up to be a success for people that stuck with him after Watson barely looked his way in Week 1 blowout loss to Jacksonville. Fannin will be a easy play as a TE1 on the road against the Saints next week.

  Raiders | Bowers catches 7 passes for 92 yards, two touchdowns in win over Jets    Sun Nov 1, 04:05 PM

Las Vegas Raiders TE Brock Bowers caught 7 passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns on 10 targets in Sunday's 38-33 win over the New York Jets. He was projected for 15.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 24.7.

Footballguys view: Both of Bowers touchdowns were short passes with one diving grab in the end zone and one nifty score where Klint Kubiak brought him across the formation at the snap and the defense lost him at the goal line. After missing the first two games, he has become the clear #1 tight end and "Jaxon Smith-Njigba" for Kubiak in Las Vegas. He'll face the 49ers coming off of his bye next week.

  Falcons | Pitts held to 2 catches for 6 yards in loss to Buccaneers    Sun Nov 1, 03:56 PM

Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts Sr. caught 2 passes for 6 yards on 5 targets in Sunday's 16-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was projected for 7.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 1.6.

Footballguys view: Pitts was wide open for a play that could have been a long score if he wasn't overthrown, and he would have overcome the biblical rainstorm that made it near impossible for both run games to function in this contest. Pitts should still be in fantasy lineups next week against a Bengals defense that just gave up a big game to Titans tight end Gunnar Helm.

  Bengals | Burrow says replacing All, Hudson at TE will 'have to be by committee'    Sun Nov 1, 11:27 AM

Bengals rookie TE Jack Endries, a seventh-round pick from Texas with 10 NFL scrimmage snaps, and blocking TE Cam Grandy, who was signed off the Vikings practice squad last week, will supplement Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample in Sunday's game against the Titans following the year-ending losses of TEs Erick All Jr. and Tanner Hudson. "Those are two huge losses for us that you can't really replace with just two guys. It's going to have to be by committee," QB Joe Burrow said. Burrow said of Endries, "All the things that we talk about in the pass game, Jack seems to see it and feel it like a quarterback does," adding that he "also brings some toughness, I think, in the run game as well."

Footballguys view: Loveland was added to the injury report with Friday's neck injury, but the hope is he an get out there against the defending Super Bowl champions. Loveland caught 7-of-12 targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' Week 7 win over the Patriots. We've got him as a TE1 range as per usual, and he's got no injury designation for Week 8.

  Raiders | Brock Bowers off injury report, set to play Sunday against Jets    Fri Oct 30, 04:20 PM

Raiders TE Brock Bowers (calf) is off the injury report and does not carry a game designation for Sunday's game against the Jets. Bowers had been limited in Wednesday's practice with the calf injury. TE Ian Thomas (shoulder) is also off the injury report.

Footballguys view: Another week, another injury for Bowers. After missing the first two games of the season due to unexpected knee surgery, Bowers has been on and off most injury reports since. He's played admirably this season and leads all tight ends in fantasy points per game. He's a no-brainer TE1 any time he's active.

Footballguys view: Loveland and the Bears will have another practice tomorrow that will hopefully help us get a better understanding of this new injury.

  Rams | Colby Parkinson questionable for Sunday vs. Chargers    Fri Oct 30, 02:31 PM

Rams TE Colby Parkinson (ribs) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers. Parkinson missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday after getting hurt in the third quarter of last Sunday's win over the Raiders.

Footballguys view: If active, Parkinson will be a pass-catcher alongside Tyler Higbee and Davis Allen. At least one touchdown will probably go to one of them, but good luck guessing which one. If Parkinson is active, he's a touchdown-dependent streamer.

  Bills | Dalton Kincaid listed as questionable for Sunday    Fri Oct 30, 01:42 PM

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (chest) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's Week 8 game against the Ravens, head coach Joe Brady said on Friday. Kincaid wore a red non-contact jersey at practice on Wednesday and Thursday.

Footballguys view: Kincaid had 225 yards and a touchdown in his first two games, looking absolutely dominant. Since then, he's averaged just 22.5 yards per game and hasn't scored a touchdown. Injuries have been a common theme of Kincaid's career, and he came out of the bye week dealing with the same injury he suffered in Week 6. He landed awkwardly on a ball, left the game in the third quarter, and returned late. If he's active, he can be started as a back-end TE1 in what's projected to be a high-scoring game with the Ravens.

  Colts | Tyler Warren 'good to go' for Sunday at Jaguars    Fri Oct 30, 12:46 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) is good to go for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, head coach Shane Steichen said on Friday. Warren had missed two straight games with the groin injury and was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday.

Footballguys view: Warren suffered this groin injury in practice leading up to Week 6, so the severity was largely unknown. He was able to start this week with a couple of limited practices and is now cleared for Sunday. There's been little to be excited about in the Colts offense this year, but Warren could help. As a short target underneath, he averaged 7.8 targets over his last four games. Warren, even coming off the injury, is a fantasy TE1 this week against the Jaguars.

  Colts | Tyler Warren limited again Thursday as Colts return to the field    Thu Oct 29, 04:00 PM

Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) was a limited participant again on Thursday, the Colts' first on-field practice of the week after a walkthrough on Wednesday. Warren, who has missed the last two games, was also limited on Wednesday. TE Drew Ogletree (knee) was limited as well ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Footballguys view: Warren has been out of action for a couple of games, but this week he's been limited in two days of practice. Another limited practice on Friday isn't total clarity, but a full participation would make it seem like he's ready to return in Week 8. Stay tuned, and check back on Friday to see what Warren's status is.

Bills TE Dalton Kincaid was still wearing a red non-contact jersey at practice on Thursday. Kincaid also wore the non-contact jersey on Wednesday. He left the October 18 game with a rib injury before returning in the fourth quarter.

Footballguys view: Kincaid had a bye in Week 7 to get right, and he's trending in the right direction. A non-contact jersey is not a great start in back-to-back days of practice this week. Let's see what Friday's injury report reveals about Kincaid's status.

  Bears | Ben Johnson says 'high likelihood' Sam Roush's rep count goes up with Kmet out    Tue Oct 27, 05:25 PM

Bears rookie TE Sam Roush is expected to see more snaps with TE Cole Kmet out for the rest of the season after sustaining a knee injury in last Thursday's win over the Patriots. Roush is the only reserve tight end on the 53-man roster behind starter Colston Loveland. "We've been very pleased with the improvement that [Roush] has made over these first seven weeks, and so there's a high likelihood that his rep count is going to go up as a result of what's going on here," coach Ben Johnson said. Roush, a third-round pick out of Stanford, said, "I'll have to step up in the coming weeks, and I feel confident in my ability to do that."

  Bengals | Bengals place Erick All Jr. on IR, bring back TE Cam Grandy    Tue Oct 27, 01:37 PM

The Bengals officially placed TE Erick All Jr. on injured reserve with a knee injury on Tuesday. Cincinnati brought back TE Cam Grandy to the 53-man roster from the Vikings' practice squad.

Footballguys view: The team also placed rookie TE Josh Kattus on practice squad injured reserve and replaced him on the practice squad with TE Caden Prieskorn, a first-year player out of Ole Miss. The Bengals already put Tanner Hudson on injured reserve this season, so adding depth behind Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample was important. Of course, Gesicki is the lone fantasy-relevant option at the position here.

  Bengals | Erick All Jr. injures surgically repaired knee, Bengals sign TE Cam Grandy    Mon Oct 26, 08:15 PM

Bengals TE Erick All Jr. limped off the field in Sunday's win over the Ravens with an injury to his right knee, the same knee in which he had ACL surgery that sidelined him for a year and a half. Head coach Zac Taylor said Monday he is not sure of the extent of the injury, which came a week after TE Tanner Hudson (pectoral) was lost for the year. The Bengals signed TE Cam Grandy off the Vikings practice squad, Cincinnati's Channel 5's Charlie Clifford reported. "He's somebody we can rely on, somebody we've got a lot of trust in," Taylor said of Grandy. "He was really a make-it roster guy for us."

Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said on Monday that the team will need to get more information before making any comments on TE Erick All Jr.'s knee injury.

Footballguys view: All has played a role on offense when healthy, but he's struggled to stay on the field. The Bengals already put Tanner Hudson on injured reserve this season, so depth behind Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample continues to look shaky.  We'll continue to watch for more on this.

  Rams | Allen catches 4 passes for 20 yards, two touchdowns in win over Raiders    Sun Oct 25, 07:40 PM

Los Angeles Rams TE Davis Allen caught 4 passes for 20 yards and two touchdowns on 5 targets in Sunday's 35-21 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He was projected for 2.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 16.0.

Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Sarah Barshop noted, outside of Puka Nacua, just one Rams wide receiver had a catch: Konata Mumpfield, for 15 yards. Instead, the Rams turned to their tight ends (Allen, Colby Parkinson, and Tyler Higbee) and their running backs (Kyren Williams and Blake Corum). It led to their highest-scoring game of the season.

  Cardinals | McBride catches 10 passes for 111 yards, a touchdown in loss to Broncos    Sun Oct 25, 07:31 PM

Footballguys view: It was National Tight Ends Day on Sunday, and McBride, as he does on game days, holiday or not, was excellent again. As CBSSports.com notes, McBride became the first tight end in NFL history to record 400 regular-season catches in his first four seasons, bolstering his career total to 406. McBride has recorded at least seven receptions in all seven games this season while scoring four times heading into a Week 8 matchup with a weak Dallas pass defense.

Footballguys view: Likely caught 2 passes for 12 yards on 4 targets in Houston. He was projected for 11.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.2. The Giants head into their bye with a lot of players banged up and fighting through injuries.

Footballguys view: Likely has been putting up massive ceiling games in the "Rashee Rice" role from Matt Nagy's offense, but he was quiet with J.J. McCarthy showing off his arm strength and talent with decisive downfield throws in this win. Likely is still a starting fantasy tight end heading into the bye, although the quality of his chemistry with J.J. McCarthy is still a work in progress.

New York Jets TE Mason Taylor caught 5 passes for 62 yards and two touchdowns on 6 targets in Sunday's 28-25 loss to the Miami Dolphins. He was projected for 4.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 20.7.

Footballguys view: First-round pick Kenyon Sadiq had a breakout game earlier this season against the Lions, but Taylor was the primary receiving tight end in this game. Taylor also caught a two-point conversion in another sign that he is the most trusted receiving tight end for the Jets right now. If you need to pick someone up from the waiver wire to cover George Kittle or Isaiah Likely's bye, Taylor is a viable choice who should be out there.
