Foster Moreau TE | HOU
Raiders' Foster Moreau: No targets Week 13
Moreau was not targeted during Sunday's 31-28 win over the Jets.
The 23-year-old is without a catch since Week 4 and hasn't been targeted since Week 8, so he's clearly not a factor in Las Vegas' passing game. Moreau should continue to see a handful of offensive snaps per contest behind Darren Waller and Jason Witten.

Tyler Conklin TE | DET
Vikings' Tyler Conklin: Gains 10 yards in win
Conklin caught his lone target for 10 yards in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win against the Jaguars.
With Irv Smith (back) inactive, Conklin logged a season-high 59 snaps on offense (65 percent), landing just five snaps shy of Kyle Rudolph, who finished with no receptions on two targets. Conklin's getting plenty of usage when Smith is out of the lineup. If Smith returns in Week 14 against the Buccaneers, Conklin will shift back to a reserve role.

Colby Parkinson TE | LAR
Seahawks' Colby Parkinson: Rarely utilized on offense
Parkinson played just two snaps on offense in Sunday's 17-12 loss to the Giants.
Despite Greg Olsen (foot) being placed on IR, Parkinson hasn't seen a meaningful increase in reps. He's played just 13 snaps on offense over the past two games, and he has yet to see his first NFL target.

Donald Parham Jr. TE | PIT
Chargers' Donald Parham: Season high in receptions
Parham caught two of his four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 45-0 loss against the Patriots.
Parham did see a season-high in receptions (two), targets (four), yards (21) and snaps (19), but it's a byproduct of the Patriots taking away most of the Chargers' offensive options. Next week, the 23-year-old will likely revert back to his minimal role as the Chargers take on the Falcons, whose weak defense to tight ends will allow for Hunter Henry to see more opportunities.

Zach Ertz TE | WAS
Eagles' Zach Ertz: Two catches in return
Ertz caught two of his four targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 30-16 loss to Green Bay.
After missing five games on IR, Ertz played 27 snaps to Dallas Goedert's 52. While an uptick in playing time can be expected over the rest of the season for the three-time Pro-Bowl tight end, he may struggle to produce useful numbers. Ertz has logged more than 42 receiving yards in a game just once in seven tries this year with only one TD.

Dawson Knox TE | BUF
Bills' Dawson Knox: Best game of 2020
Knox caught all four of his targets for 27 yards and a score in Buffalo's win over the 49ers on Monday.
The second-year tight end almost got in a second time but was stopped just short of the goal line, and it's encouraging for his fantasy value that he's starting to be used regularly near the end zone. While Knox still has a long way to go to earn trust -- the 27-yard outing was actually his second-highest output of the season -- teammate Tyler Kroft was inactive once again and Knox has become the clear leader of the Buffalo tight end group. While he's still down in the target pecking order, Knox could continue seeing a fair amount of looks as the Buffalo offense continues to hum.

Dominique Dafney TE | CAR
Dominique Dafney: Sent down to practice squad
Dafney reverted back to Green Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Dafney was on the field for six offensive snaps and five on special teams. This marked his first action of the 2020 season.
-
Juwan Johnson TE | NO
Juwan Johnson: Headed to practice squad
Johnson reverted back to New Orleans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Johnson was on the field for 20 offensive snaps and 13 on special teams Sunday against the Falcons, but he failed to record a catch. This marked the third game he's played in this season.
-
Brandon Dillon TE | WAS
Brandon Dillon: Back to practice squad
Dillon (ankle) reverted back to Minnesota's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Dillon was on the field Sunday against Jacksonville for two offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps. He's recorded one catch for six yards in three games this season.

Logan Thomas TE | SF
Football Team's Logan Thomas: Career-best showing versus Steelers
Thomas caught all nine of his targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 23-17 win over the Steelers.
Thomas set a new career high in receptions, hauling in everything thrown his way. Of course, the tight end's most impactful play was his 15-yard touchdown to tie the game in the fourth quarter. With a score in consecutive games now, Thomas is certainly trending in the right direction ahead of Week 14's matchup against the 49ers.
