Moreau caught all six of his targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-22 win over the Eagles.

Darren Waller (ankle) was ruled out just before kickoff, allowing Moreau to step into the No. 1 role and lead the Raiders in receiving yards while scoring his second TD of the year. With the team heading into its Week 8 bye, however, Waller will get extra time to recover, likely denying Moreau another shot at a significant workload.

Goedert caught three of five targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Raiders. He also caught a two-point conversion.

While he didn't see a lot of volume in his return from a one-game absence due to COVID-19 protocols, Goedert wound up leading Philadelphia in receiving yardage on the afternoon while setting a new season high in the category as well. The fourth-year tight end has yet to see more than five targets in a game, but he figures to be a key part of the Eagles' passing game in Week 8 against the Lions.

Wesco didn't catch his lone target in Sunday's 54-13 loss to New England.

Wesco has yet to catch a pass this season. The 26-year-old fullback is still in search of his first career touchdown, and the search doesn't appear close to concluding.

Engram recorded six receptions on eight targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 25-3 win over the Panthers.

Engram led the team with six receptions, as he benefited from the absence of Kenny Golladay (knee), Sterling Shepard (hamstring) and Kadarius Toney (ankle). He worked primarily in the short areas of the field but did manage an 18-yard gain late in the first quarter to push the Giants deep into Carolina territory. Engram now has at least three receptions in each of his last four games, though his ability to rack up targets will be hurt as the team's receiving corps gets healthier.

Higbee caught five receptions for 46 yards on eight targets against Detroit on Sunday.

Normally Higbee is highly efficient on modest target counts, but against the Lions he saw his efficiency fall off as his target count spiked upward. Other than WR1 Cooper Kupp, the Rams feature an ensemble cast of secondary targets, and Higbee is clearly part of that group. The problem is it's a big group, and Higbee probably ranks behind both Robert Woods and Van Jefferson. The fourth-leading pass catcher in the Rams offense has some amount of fantasy value, but the floor and ceiling both suffer that far down in the target order.

Henry caught two of three targets for 23 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 54-13 win over the Jets.

Henry scored from one yard out in the final minute of the first half, bobbling the ball in the back of the end zone but ultimately securing possession. He has found the end zone in each of his last four games, and Henry could see a bump in volume if fellow tight end Jonnu Smith -- who exited early with a shoulder injury -- is unable to suit up Week 8 against the Chargers.

Horsted failed to catch his lone target in the Bears' 38-3 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Aside from a two-yard touchdown reception two weeks ago, Horsted doesn't have another catch on the year, and unless he moves up the Chicago depth chart, it's unlikely he'll have much fantasy value.

James caught three passes for 20 yards in the Bears' 38-3 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

James took over the second tight-end role with Jimmy Graham (COVID-19) sitting this one out, but he had most of his production when the game was well out of hand. Stuck in an anemic Chicago passing attack while not being the lead tight end, James has limited fantasy upside.

Hockenson (knee) caught six passes for 48 yards on nine targets against the Rams on Sunday.

The Rams were well aware that the Lions would try to feed Hockenson in this one and prepared accordingly, including setting elite corner Jalen Ramsey against Hockenson at times. Although Hockenson's efficiency was lacking Sunday and the struggles of quarterback Jared Goff might make that an ongoing risk, the nine-target usage for Hockenson is rather encouraging. It wasn't an easy matchup for Hockenson, yet the ball headed his way often. He'll face the Eagles in Week 8.

Kmet caught five passes for 43 yards in the Bears' 38-3 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Kmet wasn't a factor until he collected a few catches once the game was out of hand in the second half, and he led the team in all receiving categories, including six targets. He's posted at least 40 yards in back-to-back games and a total of three times on the season, and he's beginning to emerge as a streaming option at tight end.
