fantasy pts / game (PPR)
- Stable workload
His usage has held around 3.0 targets per game, so the swings come from what he does with the ball, not how often he gets it.
- Low target share
He draws 7% of GB's targets. At this share he needs big plays or touchdowns to produce.
- Efficient with his chances
11.0 yards per target on the season (the typical TE is at 7.1), and 5.3 over his last game. He is turning volume into yards better than most at his position.
- Scoring without touchdowns
0% of his fantasy points come from touchdowns. His yardage is doing the work, so there is upside if the touchdowns start coming.
- Tough recent schedule
Opponents in his last game (ATL) 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
GB are averaging -0.16 EPA per play on offense. Stalled drives and fewer red-zone trips limit what he can produce.
