Fantasy TEs on Week 10 Bye

  • Travis Kelce, Chiefs
  • Jake Ferguson, Cowboys
  • Noah Fant, Bengals
  • Gunnar Helm and Chig Okonkwo, Titans

Who are the best fantasy Week 10 tight ends?

The expected, long-term loss of top-scoring TE Tucker Kraft (knee) creates a huge void near the top of these positional rankings, but the biggest names that remain are again set up to produce in Week 10.

Colston Loveland also broke the box score (6 catches, 118 yards, 2 TDs) but should be more closely regarded as a top-10 option, not a top-5, against a Giants defense that has contained the position of late.

Harold Fannin Jr.'s return from bye should be a welcomed sight for his fantasy managers; expect another TE1 finish from him as a primary target of Dillon Gabriel against the Jets.

Which top fantasy TE sleepers should I target for Week 10?

AJ Barner should pester a Cardinals defense that has allowed the fifth-most PPR points per game to the position (even before their MNF game against the Cowboys and Jake Ferguson). The Seahawks' big bruising receiver should cause many matchup issues at the second and third levels, especially if Cooper Kupp (hamstring) has to miss another week.

The Bears just allowed the Bengals to pass all over them, and Jaxson Dart will look Theo Johnson's way often. While acknowledging many of Johnson's recent touchdowns came on a tipped pass that luckily bounced into his arms as he ran by, the 6-foot-6, 264-pounder still presents a matchup issue for a boom-or-bust defense that relies on turnovers and not containment.

Which top fantasy TE busts should I avoid for Week 10?

T.J. Hockenson seemed to re-emerge with J.J. McCarthy's return to the starting Vikings QB gig in Week 9 -- but the touchdown hid that he only had 3 targets. Don't buy too heavily into him as a lineup staple against the improving Ravens defense.

Saying to outright bench Dallas Goedert would be ignoring how stable he has been, but the Packers have been tight against tight ends, and an A.J. Brown return could take Jalen Hurts' attention away from those mid-range targets.
