Morris didn't draw a target while playing three of the Bills' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans.

Morris has suited up for all seven of the Bills' games but has yet to draw a target in the passing game. He hasn't played more than nine snaps on offense in any contest.

Reiman recorded a one-yard reception on his lone target and played 30 of the Cardinals' 57 snaps on offense in Monday's 17-15 win over the Chargers.

Trey McBride remains Arizona's top tight end, but Reiman joined him on the field for the Cardinals' first snap and was credited with a start while the team opened the game in 12 personnel. Reiman went on to finish second in snaps among Arizona's tight end group, trailing only McBride (54) but finishing ahead of Elijah Higgins (21). The 6-foot-4, 273-pound Reiman is regarded as a strong blocker, but Higgins is the superior receiving threat and ended up serving as the primary replacement for McBride in a loss to the Commanders in Week 4, when McBride was sidelined with a concussion.

Likely caught two of four targets for 17 yards in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.

Despite leading all Baltimore tight ends in offensive snaps (35), Likely was not much of a factor in the win. Fellow tight end Mark Andrews, however, had his first big game of the season, catching all four of his targets for 41 yards and two touchdowns. The 24-year-old Likely has been limited to two receptions for two straight games, and it's possible that he could see his role in the offense diminish if Andrews continues to approach his former production levels.

Sinnott caught both of his targets for six yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-7 win over the Panthers.

Sinnott played 45 percent of the Commanders' offensive snaps Sunday, his highest snap share of his young career. The rookie tight end caught his first career touchdown in the third quarter of the contest from backup quarterback Marcus Mariota, as starter Jayden Daniels was sidelined with a rib injury. As the year progresses, Sinnott should continue to develop and see some increased usage in the Commanders' passing attack. The 22-year-old still remains the No. 2 tight end option behind veteran Zach Ertz, but an injury to the latter could force Sinnott into the spotlight at some point this season. Sinnott should remain off the fantasy radar for now, but his performance is worth monitoring in a Week 8 matchup against the Bears.

Knox caught one of three targets for five yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans.

Knox played 31 of the Bills' 55 offensive snaps in the contest, continuing to fulfill No. 2 tight end duties behind starter Dalton Kincaid. With that said, Kincaid played just nine more snaps Sunday while seeing six targets from quarterback Josh Allen. The 27-year-old Knox remains off the fantasy radar, as his inconsistent production is extremely difficult to trust each week. The Bills will visit the Seahawks in Week 8.

Tonyan signed with the Vikings' practice squad Tuesday.

Despite being released from the active roster for the second time this month, Tonyan appears to like his environment enough to stay in Minnesota on the practice squad. He will continue to provide depth at tight end for as long as T.J. Hockenson (knee) is sidelined.

The Raiders signed Wesco to the practice squad Tuesday.

Wesco has been without a team all year, but he has a chance to see game-day action with the Raiders after Harrison Bryant suffered an elbow injury during Sunday's game against the Rams. Wesco mostly served in a blocking role with the Titans in 2023, and he finished the year with one catch for 21 yards across 15 regular-season games.

The Vikings released Tonyan on Tuesday.

Tonyan was signed to the Vikings' active roster Oct. 19 for the second time this season to serve as the No. 3 tight end behind Josh Oliver and Johnny Mundt. With T.J. Hockenson (knee) on track to return from injured reserve for Week 8 or 9, there doesn't appear to be room for Tonyan, and he will be released for the second time this month. Tonyan could stick around in Minnesota and sign with the practice squad again, but he has an opportunity to explore his options and sign with a team in need of depth at tight end.

Andrews caught all four of his targets for 41 yards and two touchdowns in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.

Andrews caught a nine-yard touchdown in the second quarter before adding a four-yard score in the third. The veteran tight end has three touchdowns in his last two games after opening the season on a five-game touchdown drought, and Andrews has 11 catches over that three-game span after posting only six catches through Week 4. Andrews still is ceding more snaps than in previous seasons to Isaiah Likely, but at least the recent uptick in production has Andrews back in the usable range for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 8 trip to Cleveland.

Johnson was not targeted in Sunday's loss to Philadelphia.

The Giants' passing game was abhorrent as a whole Sunday, as Daniel Jones and Drew Lock combined for just 105 yards while completing a collective 17 of 29 attempts. Daniel Bellinger was the only one of the team's tight ends to even see a target, and he received just one look, which he caught for 11 yards. There's no reason to believe that Bellinger has usurped Johnson on the depth chart since the latter logged 90 percent of New York's offensive snaps in the ugly loss to Bellinger's 12 percent, so Johnson should have an opportunity to bounce back Week 8 against Pittsburgh on Monday Night Football.
