Otton recorded two catches for 15 yards on two targets in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Panthers.

With the Tampa Bay pass-catching corps getting healthier following the returns of Mike Evans and Jalen McMillan from injured reserve, Otton appears set to occupy a more muted role in the aerial attack. The tight end has drawn four targets or fewer in each of the Buccaneers' last three games, producing seven catches for 43 yards during that stretch. The lack of reliable target volume makes Otton tough to rely upon in fantasy lineups heading into Tampa Bay's Week 17 matchup with the Dolphins.

Mayer caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

Mayer has not caught more than one pass in a single contest since Week 11, though he played 36 of 54 offensive snaps for the Raiders on Sunday. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Brock Bowers paced the team with five receptions on as many targets for 33 yards and a score.

Warren brought in three of nine targets for 30 yards in the Colts' 48-27 loss to the 49ers on Monday night.

Warren tied Josh Downs for the team lead in targets, but he wasn't anywhere near as productive as his teammate. The rookie tight end now has been at 45 receiving yards or fewer in five straight games, a far cry from the 61.7 receiving yards he averaged over his first 10 career contests. Warren has seen 15 targets over his first two games with Philip Rivers, however, affording him upside despite recent struggles in a Week 17 home matchup versus the Jaguars.

San Francisco coach Kyle Shanahan said after Monday's 48-27 win against the Colts that it's too early to know the severity of Kittle's ankle injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Kittle missed all of the fourth quarter and some of the third due to the ankle issue, and the outcome of the contest wasn't certain until late, so it appears there's at least some chance the star tight end will miss next Sunday's game against Chicago. With that said, further evaluation is needed to determine how serious of an issue Kittle is dealing with, and he will likely do everything he can to play next week given that there is a lot at stake for San Francisco against the Bears. Despite his early exit Monday, Kittle did plenty for fantasy managers who started him, amassing 115 yards and a touchdown on seven catches. Jake Tonges was effective as the 49ers' pass-catching tight end following Kittle's departure and would be a viable fantasy asset in Week 17 if Kittle is forced to sit out.

Kittle is dealing with an ankle injury and is questionable to return to Monday's Week 16 matchup against Indianapolis, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Kittle walked gingerly off the field late in the third quarter and subsequently was deemed questionable to return with what has been considered to be an ankle injury. The star tight end was having a big game before getting hurt, recording seven catches (on eight targets) for 115 yards and a touchdown. If Kittle is unable to return Monday, Jake Tonges likely would be asked to step in as San Francisco's top pass-catching tight end, with Luke Farrell also a candidate for more offensive snaps.

Ogletree (neck) is questionable to return to Monday's game against the 49ers, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

It's unclear when Ogletree sustained the injury, but he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Mo Alie-Cox will see a small uptick in offensive snaps at tight end behind rookie Tyler Warren for as long as Ogletree is out of the game.

Cager reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Cager was brought up by the Commanders to add depth at tight end due to the absence of Colson Yankoff (ankle), though the former played just one snap on offense during Saturday's loss to the Eagles. It was Cager's first appearance of the 2025 regular season, and he's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad twice more this season.

Jenkins reverted to the Eagles' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Jenkins was elevated to the Eagles' practice squad for Saturday's 29-18 win over the Commanders, when he played 18 snaps (six on offense, 12 on special teams) without showing up on the box score otherwise. He's eligible to be elevated from the practice squad once more this season, which could come as soon as Week 17 against the Bills.

Matavao reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Matavao logged 21 offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Jets but played behind all four of Juwan Johnson, Taysom Hill, Foster Moreau (ankle) and Jack Stoll. Matavao didn't draw a single target against New York.

Ricci reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Ricci played 24 snaps (14 on offense, 10 on special teams) during the Lions' 29-24 loss to the Steelers on Sunday, but he did not show up on the box score otherwise. He's been elevated from the practice squad twice this season, and he's eligible to be called up once more over the final two games of the regular season.
