Alie-Cox failed to haul in either of his targets during the Colts' 13-10 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Alie-Cox led all Colts tight ends with 39 offensive snaps, but he could not connect with Daniel Jones on two pass attempts from the veteran quarterback. Alie-Cox and the other Indianapolis tight ends were operating in elevated roles for a second consecutive week due to the absence of Tyler Warren (groin). Alie-Cox's snap count would take a hit if Warren was cleared to return for Week 8 against Jacksonville.

Ogletree caught both of his passes for 12 yards during the Colts' 13-10 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Ogletree and the other Colts tight ends stepped into larger roles offensively for a second consecutive week due to the absence of Tyler Warren (groin). Ogletree's 35 offensive snaps were second-most among Indianapolis' tight ends, and he set season highs in catches, targets and receiving yards. He's mostly worked as a blocker on offense, and his snap count would be lower in Week 8 against the Jaguars if Warren is cleared to return for that contest.

Higgins caught all three of his targets for 17 yards and made one tackle on kick coverage in the Cardinals' 30-16 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Higgins played 39 offensive snaps and 17 special-teams snaps in Sunday's contest. The versatile tight end continues to see moderate attention in the passing game, allowing the Cardinals to continue playing 12- and 13-personnel packages.

Kacmarek played 29 offensive snaps and five special-teams snaps but did not appear in the box score of the Dolphins' 28-25 win over the Jets on Sunday.

Kacmarek played 45 percent of the Dolphins' offensive snaps. The No. 2 tight end's blocking role was starkly contrasted by Greg Dulcich's team-leading target share.

Gray caught three passes on as many targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 20-3 loss to the Seahawks.

Gray and Travis Kelce ended up tied for the most receiving yards on the Chiefs on Sunday, although the offense struggled as a whole, with Patrick Mahomes throwing for only 165 yards and Kenneth Walker averaging only 2.6 yards per carry. Gray has caught 11 of 12 passes for 153 yards over his last four games, though he's limited to a complementary role in the passing game behind Kelce, Xavier Worthy and, when healthy, Rashee Rice (knee/hamstring). The Chiefs will stay on the road for Week 8 against the Broncos, whose defense ranks 24th in the NFL in fantasy points allowed per game to tight ends.

Evans gathered in all two targets for 39 yards during Sunday's 43-13 loss versus Tampa Bay.

Evans logged more offensive snaps than Darren Waller for the third consecutive contest. However, despite the increased involvement, it was another unproductive effort from the 23-year-old, who now has just eight catches for 105 yards in six regular-season games in 2026.

Engram caught one of three targets for two yards during Sunday's 30-16 win over the Cardinals.

Engram played a season-low 23 offensive snaps in the victory, and as a result, he was limited to one or zero catches for the fourth time this season. The tight end hasn't reached the end zone since Week 1, and he'll remain an unappealing fantasy option ahead of a Week 8 matchup with the Chiefs.

Tremble hauled in one catch for eight yards during Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

Tremble had two touchdowns in the 25-14 win over the Eagles in Week 6. However, it was a different story in Week 7, with the 26-year-old catching just one pass for the second time this season. While Tremble could find the end zone again at some point moving forward, he likely won't be consistent enough to be considered anything other than a desperation fantasy option, especially while Darren Waller is on the field.

Fant gathered in all two targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 16-10 defeat against Pittsburgh.

After finding the end zone twice in the loss to the Raiders in Week 3, Fant has combined for just three catches in his previous three appearances. While his two receptions Sunday were a small step in the right direction, he is expected to continue to play second fiddle to Juwan Johnson moving forward. It may also be a matter of time before rookie Oscar Delp logs more snaps from week to week.

Hooper caught both of his targets for 21 yards in the Falcons' 29-20 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

Hooper played 29 offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps in Sunday's contest. The No. 3 tight end was utilized as a blocker and pass catcher but was outshone by No. 4 option Nick Muse, who caught a key touchdown as the team took down the undefeated 49ers.
