fantasy pts / game (PPR)
- Bigger role
He's averaging 2.0 targets over his last game, compared with 1.0 before that. More opportunity is the main reason the production has risen.
- Low target share
He draws 5% of TEN's targets. At this share he needs big plays or touchdowns to produce.
- Inefficient touches
5.8 yards per target on the season (the typical TE is at 7.1), and 8.0 over his last game. Production is being propped up by volume more than explosiveness.
- 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.
- Struggling offense around him
TEN are averaging -0.24 EPA per play on offense. Stalled drives and fewer red-zone trips limit what he can produce.
