fantasy pts / game (PPR)

  • Shrinking role

    He's averaging 2.0 targets over his last game, compared with 3.0 before that. Fewer chances cap his ceiling no matter how efficient he is.

  • Low target share

    He draws 9% of DEN's targets. At this share he needs big plays or touchdowns to produce.

  • League-average efficiency

    7.5 yards per target on the season (the typical TE is at 7.1), and 0.0 over his last game.

  • Tough recent schedule

    Opponents in his last game (LAR) give up less EPA per play than the league average. He has been producing against strong opponents, so the numbers are probably underselling him.

  • Struggling offense around him

    DEN are averaging -0.09 EPA per play on offense. Stalled drives and fewer red-zone trips limit what he can produce.

Play style & archetype

Compares 2026 play-by-play and box score data against 30 qualified TEs across 3 games.

Archetype

Inline blocker

Primarily valued as a blocker, with the passing game a secondary role.

He sees light target volume (targets / game 2.7, bottom 1% of TEs).

He is not a volume focal point (target share 8.1%, bottom 1% of TEs).

He works mostly outside the numbers (middle-of-field rate 0.0%, bottom 1% of TEs).

He pushes the ball downfield far more than most (deep target rate 25.0%, top 7% of TEs).
