Graham caught two passes for nine yards in the Bears' 45-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Graham continues to operate behind Cole Kmet in the pecking order for tight-end targets in the Bears offense, and although he's scored twice over his last three games, Graham's average of 15 yards per game makes him difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.

Kmet caught three passes on five targets for 17 yards in the Bears' 45-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Despite the Bears scoring 30 points, the Packers bottled up each of the Bears' primary weapons, including Kmet, who was held to fewer than 20 yards for just the second time since Week 4. With at least three receptions in seven of his last eight games, his value is elevated in PPR formats.

Pruitt recorded one reception on three targets for five yards in Sunday's 20-0 win over the Jaguars.

Pruitt finished third among Tennessee's tight ends with three targets, though that was his highest total since Week 7. While Ryan Tannehill regularly targets his tight ends, Pruitt has recorded multiple receptions in a game only three times this season.

Swaim recorded three receptions on four targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 20-0 win over Jacksonville.

Swaim finished third on the team with only four targets, but he managed to lead all Titans receivers in yardage. He also logged the team's longest gain of the day -- a 24-yard reception partway through the third quarter -- that helped him top 30 receiving yards for the first time this season. Despite a relatively consistent role in Tennessee's offense across his last five games, Swaim is dependent on touchdowns to rack up viable fantasy production.

Firkser recorded four receptions on five targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 20-0 win over Jacksonville.

Firkser saw the majority of his production come within a two-drive span in the second quarter during which he recorded three receptions for 24 yards. Firkser has now seen his involvement in the Tennessee offense spike in two of the last three games, with a combined nine receptions for 60 yards. However, he's still recorded only one reception in six of his last eight contests, which makes him a difficult option to trust for consistent production.

Moreau recorded three receptions on six targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 48-9 loss to the Chiefs.

Moreau earned his second consecutive start with Darren Waller (knee) sidelined. Though he improved on the one-target performance from Week 13, Moreau was limited to only short gains on his trio of catches. In two games in Waller's absence, Moreau has failed to make an impact by logging a combined four receptions for 47 yards.

Kittle caught 13 of 15 targets for 151 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-23 overtime win over the Bengals.

For the second straight game, Kittle was all but unstoppable as Jimmy Garoppolo's top option in the passing game. The tight end hauled in a 14-yard TD right before halftime, while the catches and targets were season highs. Kittle's posted three 100-yard performances and scored six touchdowns in six games since returning to action from an IR stint due to a calf injury, and he seems unlikely to slow down in Week 15 against the Falcons.

Dafney won't return to Sunday's game against the Bears due to an ankle injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Dafney initially returned to Sunday's matchup after he sustained an ankle injury in the first half, but he was later ruled out for the remainder of the game. Whether he's available for Green Bay's Week 15 matchup against the Ravens on Dec. 19 remains to be seen.

Okwuegbunam caught all five of his targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Lions.

Noah Fant managed 10 more yards on one fewer reception, but Okwuegbunam was the Denver tight end who made the biggest impact with a four-yard score in the fourth quarter. It was only the second TD of the season for the second-year player, with his first coming back in Week 1, but the five grabs were a season high. Okwuegbunam will look to build on this performance in Week 15 against the Bengals.

Knox brought in seven of nine targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 33-27 overtime loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

The emerging 25-year-old pushed his league-leading touchdown totals among tight ends to eight with his 15-yard scoring grab early in the fourth quarter. The third-year pro also had a critical 24-yard reception on the Bills' game-tying drive late in the fourth quarter, pushing the ball to the Buccaneers' 15-yard line to help set up an eventual Tyler Bass game-tying field goal. Knox takes a four-game multi-reception streak into a Week 15 home matchup against the Panthers.
