Everett caught eight passes on eight targets for 63 yards against Green Bay on Sunday.

Everett wasn't explosive, but he was automatic with his targets and was the sole means of moving the chains for Seattle on Sunday. Part of that was due to the poor play of Russell Wilson (finger) -- DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett were both shut down by Wilson's inaccuracy, and that probably funneled some usage toward Everett. He'll try to keep the momentum going against Arizona in Week 11.

Ertz caught four of six targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Panthers.

Ertz trailed only Christian Kirk for Arizona's lead in all major receiving categories. However, with the Cardinals offense short-handed, there wasn't much production to go around overall. Still, in four games since arriving via trade, Ertz has managed at least three catches each week, offering a decent complement within the passing game. Looking ahead to Week 11's matchup versus the Seahawks, Ertz and company could welcome both star quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) and wideout DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) back to the fold, potentially elevating the offense's upside.

Arnold secured five of seven targets for 67 yards in the Jaguars' 23-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

The journeyman tight end continued to prove an excellent fit in the Jaguars' passing attack, notching team highs in receptions and receiving yards while checking in second in targets. Arnold now has between four and eight receptions and at least 60 yards in each of his last three games, keeping him viable in all formats for a Week 11 home matchup against the 49ers.

Goedert (head) won't return to Sunday's game in Denver.

Goedert was evaluated for a head injury following a hit to the helmet from Broncos safety Justin Simmons in the first quarter. The Eagles have yet to confirm that Goedert suffered a concussion, but he'll finish this contest with two catches (on two targets) for 28 yards. Philadelphia will have just Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson at tight end for the rest of Week 10.

Hooper caught four passes for 25 yards and one touchdown on five targets against New England on Sunday.

The touchdown was the first of the day but the Browns went into the tank almost immediately afterward in the 45-7 loss. As much as the touchdown is an encouraging sign, Hooper just doesn't seem like a great fit in the Kevin Stefanski offense, and his usage is rarely a given since the Browns rotate in David Njoku and Harrison Bryant so aggressively. It will likely remain difficult to anticipate Hooper's infrequent productive games.

Goedert exited Sunday's game at Denver to be checked for a head injury.

Goedert took a hit to the helmet on a first-quarter catch and stayed down for a spell before walking slowly to the sideline. After a visit to the blue medical tent, he went to the locker room, where the Eagles will determine if he sustained a concussion. If he's unable to return, Goedert will finish Week 10 with two receptions (on two targets) for 28 yards. Jack Stoll and Tyree Jackson are the remaining healthy tight ends on the game-day roster.

Henry caught four passes for 37 yards and two touchdowns on four targets against Cleveland on Sunday.

The per-target efficiency here isn't sustainable, but the Patriots might have had reason to target Henry more often if the Browns hadn't folded up so early in the 45-7 loss. Although his ceiling might be capped somewhat in a Patriots offense that tends to spread the ball around, Henry has demonstrated a convincing floor in recent weeks and becomes a strong candidate to score whenever New England gets within range of the end zone. While his fantasy investors would love to see more targets, the modest volume is a lot easier to accept when the player in question has seven touchdowns in seven games.

Pitts caught four of seven targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 43-3 blowout loss to the Cowboys.

Pitts was the lone bright spot for the Falcons in a game where the offense could barely move the ball through the air (131 total passing yards and three interceptions). The fourth overall pick from this year's draft has contributed 40 receptions, 606 yards and one touchdown through nine contests. Pitts' lack of touchdowns might be the only criticism that could be made of his fantasy game so far, especially given his large frame (6-foot-6, 245 pounds). He does have 17 red-zone looks so far this season, so the touchdowns should come so long as Matt Ryan continues to look his way in scoring situations. Pitts and the Falcons will take on a stout Patriots defense Thursday.

Hurst (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.

While there has been no word on the severity of the injury, it makes sense for any player with even the slightest injury risk to sit the rest of the game given that the Falcons are in the midst of getting blown out. Keith Smith might see extra snaps in the meantime.

Dafney (hamstring) will not play Sunday against the Seahawks, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

Dafney missed practice all week, so this was the likely outcome. In his absence, Marcedes Lewis and Josiah Deguara will see the bulk of tight end opportunities.
