Mitchell didn't draw a target while playing 10 of the Panthers' 67 snaps on offense in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.

With top tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) inactive for the third game in a row, Mitchell once again suited up as Carolina's No. 3 option at the position behind Tommy Tremble and Mitchell Evans. Mitchell had recorded three catches for 28 yards between the previous two contests, but he failed to garner any looks from quarterback Bryce Young during his limited time on the field Sunday. Mitchell will likely find himself back on the inactive list for the Panthers' Week 7 game against the Jets if Sanders is cleared to return to action.

Evans played 39 of the Panthers' 67 snaps on offense and hauled in a 21-yard reception on his lone target in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.

For the third game in a row, the rookie fifth-round pick out of Notre Dame served as Carolina's No. 2 tight end behind Tommy Tremble while usual starter Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) was sidelined once again. Evans had come through with touchdowns in the previous two contests, and though he didn't find paydirt Sunday, his 21-yard catch was the Panthers' third-longest play of the day and helped set up a field goal in the first quarter. Despite making a bit of splash in his backup role the past three games, Evans is still likely to see his playing time take a hit if Sanders is back in action Week 7 against the Jets.

Thomas caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans.

Thomas logged just 18 offensive snaps with fellow tight end Michael Mayer returning from a concussion to post a 5-50-1 receiving line on seven targets. Meanwhile, Brock Bowers (knee) is unlikely to return until after the Raiders' Week 8 bye, so Thomas should fill a similar TE2 role behind Mayer at Kansas City in Week 7.

Hawes went without a target while playing 31 of the Bills' 57 snaps on offense in Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

With fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique) inactive for the first time in 2025, Hawes played a season-high 54 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps. However, the uptick in playing time didn't translate to any looks in the passing game for Hawes, with Dawson Knox drawing both of the targets on the night among Buffalo tight ends. Through his first six games, Hawes has produced a 4-54-1 receiving line on four targets.

Trautman failed to record a single target in Sunday's 13-11 win over the Jets.

Trautman was a complete nonfactor against the Jets, as the veteran was not involved in the Broncos' offensive attack Sunday. The 28-year-old played 23 of Denver's 60 offensive snaps, behind fellow tight end Evan Engram (28) and tied with teammate Nate Adkins. Due to his usage as a blocker, Trautman offers very little in the way of fantasy production most weeks. The sixth-year tight end should be ignored for fantasy purposes when the Broncos host the Giants in Week 7.

Kmet caught one of two targets for zero yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Even with 2025 first-round pick Colston Loveland struggling to stay healthy and adjust to the NFL, Kmet hasn't been a big factor in the Chicago offense. The veteran tight end has 10 or fewer yards in two of his last three games en route to an 8-116-1 line for the season on 18 targets, leaving him as a depth fantasy option.

Loveland caught two of three targets for 11 yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

A minor hip injury cost him a Week 4 matchup against the Raiders, but the 10th overall pick in the 2025 Draft was able to return to the lineup after the Bears' bye. Loveland has just five receptions this season, and limited usage keeps him a watch-list tight end until his usage increases.

Helm recorded two receptions on three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Raiders.

Helm saw a slight downturn in snap rate relative to his Week 5 performance, as he was on the field for only 49 percent of offensive snaps. He still managed to earn three targets, but he was less involved than veteran tight end Chig Okonkwo. Helm remains inconsistent, though he could see his role expand as the Titans turn their attention to developing Cam Ward and auditioning players for a role in 2026.

Pitts had three receptions (on four targets) for 18 yards in Monday's 24-14 win over the Bills.

Pitts followed up his best performance of the season against the Commanders (5-70-1) with his lowest fantasy score to date on Monday Night Football. Michael Penix was keyed in on Drake London (10-158-1) and Bijan Robinson (6-68-0) in the passing game, leaving scraps for Pitts and the rest of Atlanta's auxiliary options. Pitts still carries a modest 23-223-1 receiving line into a Week 7 road tilt against the 49ers on Sunday.

Knox brought in one of two targets for a 19-yard touchdown in the Bills' 24-14 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

The veteran tight end rose to the top of the depth chart Monday night due to Dalton Kincaid (oblique) being inactive, but Knox ultimately garnered a minimal amount of Josh Allen's attention. Nevertheless, Knox made good on his one opportunity, getting into the end zone with 8:01 remaining in the first quarter to erase an early 7-0 deficit. The score was Knox's first since Week 6 of last season, but his run as the No. 1 option at the position may be limited to just Monday's game since Kincaid figures to have a good chance of getting healthy over Buffalo's Week 7 bye.
