McBride had seven receptions on eight targets for 65 yards in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Rams.

Fresh off setting a new league record for catches by a tight end in a single season last week, McBride shifted his focus on Sunday to the league lead in receptions for all position players. Arizona's star tight end entered Week 18 in a tie for first place with Rams wideout Puka Nacua, but it was the latter who finished the contest with more receptions and first-place honors. McBride's 126 grabs across 17 starts were still good enough to earn second place, finishing one catch ahead of Cincinnati's Ja'Marr Chase this regular season. The 25-year-old McBride corrected the red-zone woes that plagued him early in his career (six TDs in first three seasons) with a whopping 11 trips to the end zone in 2025. The breakout fantasy star accomplished all of this while catching passes from two different starting quarterbacks, so expect McBride to remain productive in 2026 whether it is Kyler Murray, Jacoby Brissett or another signal-caller under center for Arizona.

Loveland brought in 10 of 13 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Loveland led the Bears pass catchers across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, seeing plenty of second-half action as Chicago scored 16 fourth-quarter points to make things interesting. Six of those came courtesy of Loveland, who recorded a one-yard scoring grab with just under five and a half minutes remaining in the contest to narrow a 16-8 deficit. Loveland finished his first NFL regular season by eclipsing 90 receiving yards and scoring a touchdown in consecutive games, leaving him with a 58-713-6 line on 82 targets across 16 games and affording him plenty of momentum heading into the wild-card round next weekend.

Schultz caught all four of his targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts.

The veteran tight end wrapped up the regular season on a high note, catching at least three passes for a sixth straight game. Schultz set new career highs with 82 receptions on 106 targets over 17 games, turning that volume into 777 yards and three TDs. He'll remain a reliable chain-mover for C.J. Stroud heading into the playoffs, beginning with a wild-card round clash with the winner of Sunday night's AFC North battle between the Ravens and Steelers.

Warren caught five of eight targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 38-30 loss to the Texans.

With Riley Leonard getting his first career start at quarterback, Warren wound up being nothing more than a security blanket and check-down option for his fellow rookie, with his longest gain going for just nine yards. The five receptions still led the Colts, however. Warren puts his first NFL season in the books with a 76-817-4 line on 112 targets, and depending on how the team solves its QB dilemma this offseason, the tight end could be poised for a Year 2 breakout.

Calcaterra (ankle/knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Commanders.

Calcaterra appeared to sustain the injuries while being tackled by Jeremy Reaves in the third quarter, and the former was taken to the locker room to be evaluated by medical staff. Dallas Goedert (knee) is inactive, so Kylen Granson and Cameron Latu are in line for more offensive snaps at tight end for as long as Calcaterra is out of the game.

Johnson secured three of five targets for 61 yards in the Saints' 19-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

The veteran tight end led the Saints in receiving yards while also securing a team-high 28-yard grab. Johnson had an opportunity for extra targets due to the absences of both Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (IR, groin), but Tyler Shough ended up spreading the ball around to seven different pass catchers overall. Johnson finished the 2025 season with a career-best 77 receptions and 889 receiving yards, and he totaled three touchdowns for the second consecutive season. Given the rapport Johnson flashed with Shough over the second half of the season, the former will head into 2026 with a very encouraging fantasy outlook

Pitts secured six of nine targets for 58 yards in the Falcons' 19-17 win over the Saints on Sunday.

The veteran tight end played a key role in a Falcons victory that made the Panthers the NFC South champions in the process, leading the way in both receptions and targets on the afternoon while also securing the ball on New Orleans' last-ditch onside-kick attempt. Pitts' Week 18 performance put a fitting cap on a strong stretch run that saw him record at least six receptions and 57 yards in five of his final six games. Pitts wrapped up the 2025 regular season with a well-timed 88-928-5 receiving line across 17 games, and both his reception and touchdown totals qualified as career-high figures with unrestricted free agency looming this offseason.

Lewis (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest versus the Chargers, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official website reports.

Lewis will be a healthy scratch for the team's regular-season finale after logging 15 offensive snaps in Week 17 versus the Chiefs. The 41-year-old doesn't have much of a role in the passing attack, so his absence won't have a major impact on offense against Los Angeles.

Ferguson (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Ferguson was a late addition to Saturday's injury report due to a hamstring injury. The rookie second-rounder will be sidelined for Sunday's regular-season finale and could be in jeopardy of missing the wild-card round of the NFC playoffs. Tyler Higbee has been cleared to play Sunday after being activated from injured reserve and will join Colby Parkinson as the Rams' top tight ends for Week 18 in Ferguson's absence.

Hill (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against Atlanta.

Hill exited in the third quarter of the Saints' season finale. Per the broadcast, he took off his pads and headed to the locker room after getting hurt. The veteran tight end recorded three catches on three targets for 32 yards prior to his departure. Moliki Matavao will likely work as New Orleans' No. 2 tight end behind Juwan Johnson for as long as Hill remains out.
