Dalton Schultz Week 12 Outlook - Texans at Lions

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Wed, Nov 25th 2020, 7:19pm EST

Similar to the tight end on the other sideline, Schultz has had a consistent role in his offense and has seen at least four targets in 9-of-10 games, including six-plus targets in six of them. He hasn't topped 53 yards since way back in Week 4, so his ceiling is a bit limited with all the receivers they have, but it's hard to find tight ends who average 6.1 targets per game. Everyone on the Cowboys offense struggled the last time these two teams played, and Schultz was no exception, finishing with just two catches for 22 yards. The good news is that against Washington, tight ends have averaged a 23.1 percent target share, which is tied as the third-most in the league. When you break down where the fantasy production to skill-position players goes against Washington, you'll see that tight ends account for 21.4 percent of it, which ranks as the second-most in the league. There have been just four tight ends who've topped 30 yards, so it's far from a guarantee, but given his target share, Schultz deserves mid-to-high-end TE2 consideration.
