Carnell Tate Week 5 Outlook - Texans at Titans

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 8th 2026, 1:35pm EDT

After a massive Week 4 performance, Carnell Tate is the WR27 in fantasy points per game. Carnell Tate has been commanding alpha-level volume, and now we're starting to see it pay off. Among 79 qualifying receivers, Tate is seventh in target share (26.9%), 17th in YPRR (2.39), third in air-yard share (50.1%), 20th in FD/RR (0.098), and sixth in first-read share (36%). Tate has only one red zone target and three deep targets this season. Tate could be a strong WR3/flex again this week if Cam Ward can provide him catchable targets. Houston has allowed the third-most yards per target and the fourth-most fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers.
