Fantasy Football Player Notes

Week 17 Half PPR Rankings

Trey McBride Note
Trey McBride photo 1. Trey McBride ARI (at CIN)
There's no way around it, after carrying fantasy teams all season, McBride dropped the ball in the fantasy semi-finals. Posting his worst week of the year, it was one of those moments that make fantasy football such a cruel game. However, if you managed to move on, he could single-handedly win you your championship. The Bengals have allowed by far the most fantasy points to the TE position on the season. Plus, the Cardinals' defense won't have the answers for Burrow and company. As a result, we have McBride taking on the worst defense in a game that should be the highest scoring affair of the week. That sounds like a league-winner to me.

Harold Fannin Jr. Note

What a rookie season it has been for Fannin. From starting the season firmly behind David Njoku, the rookie has made his mark as a dynamic player on this offense. With 31 targets over his last three games and three touchdowns in his last four games, he has become one of the most productive TEs down the stretch. This week, they face the Steelers who have allowed the 10th most fantasy points to the position since Week 10. Keep riding the breakout rookie.

Kyle Pitts Sr. Note

We finally answered the question of what would happen to Pitts when Drake London returned. Well, sort of. It was clear that London is still not fully healthy, allowing Pitts to continue his role as the top target on this offense. In his last two games, Pitts has scored four of his 15 career touchdowns. That's incredible. This week, the Falcons have a tough task against the Rams. Although the Rams' defense has hovered around league average against the TE position, the Falcons will need to find a way to keep up with Matthew Stafford and company. As a result, if Pitts continues to operate as the top receiving weapon, he should find his way to his fifth consecutive top-seven performance at the position.

George Kittle Note

Kittle has been phenomenal since returning from injury. Unfortunately, he is also injured right now. With his status uncertain, be sure to check the practice reports. However, if he is active, you have to play him. With 60-plus yards in six consecutive games and five touchdowns in that span, Kittle is the clear second-best TE behind McBride.

Since Week 3, Dalton Schultz has been the TE8 in fantasy points per game with an 18.5% target share, 48.3 receiving yards per game, 1.60 yards per route run, and an 18.7% first-read share. In those 13 games, Schultz has had three touchdowns, nine red zone targets, and five deep targets. CJ Stroud should lean on Schultz this week. Since Week 10, the Bolts have allowed the fourth-highest yards per target to tight ends while ranking 17th in fantasy points per game.

After seeing his route share dip in Week 15, last week, Oronde Gadsden saw his route share sit at 69.7%. Since Week 6, Gadsden has been the TE17 in fantasy points per game with a 15.8% target share, 53.3 receiving yards per game, 1.98 yards per route run, and a 17.7% first-read share. In those ten games, he has ten red zone targets, two touchdowns, and eight deep targets. Gadsden is back on the streaming radar this week. Since Week 10, Houston has allowed the 11th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends while ranking 17th in yards per target.

Mark Andrews Note
Mark Andrews photo 22. Mark Andrews BAL (at GB)
Mark Andrews' 2025 season has been an utter disappointment as the TE23 in fantasy points per game. He has a 15.9% target share with 25.3 receiving yards per game, 1.31 yards per route run, and a 19.9% first-read share. Andrews has had 13 red zone targets and two deep targets. He hasn't surpassed 50 receiving yards in a game since Week 3, and that was the only time he has done so this season. Andrews is a sit again this week. Since Week 10, Green Bay has allowed the fewest fantasy points per game and the fifth-fewest yards per target to tight ends.
