Ferguson failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 34-7 victory against the Buccaneers.

Despite Tyler Higbee (ankle) going on injured reserve, Ferguson's reduced role didn't expand, as he took the field for just 15 snaps on offense. Colby Parkinson secured all four of his targets for 41 yards and a touchdown, and Davis Allen tacked on three catches and 29 yards with his four targets. Until Ferguson earns more playing time, his opportunity for the explosive plays he's showcased in limited usage this season (27.6 YPC on five catches) will be scant, making him difficult to trust in fantasy lineups.

Allen secured three of four targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 34-7 victory against the Buccaneers.

A week removed from being blanked against the Seahawks, Allen helped fill the void left by Tyler Higbee (ankle) going on injured reserve. Colby Parkinson extended his touchdown streak to three games with a second-quarter touchdown grab, but Allen has also shown a nose for the end zone in 2025, notching three touchdowns of his own. Allen hasn't produced more than 37 yards in any contest this season, however, making him a touchdown-dependent fantasy option as the Rams travel to take on the Panthers in Week 13.

Freiermuth secured all three of his targets for 19 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-28 loss to Chicago.

Although Freiermuth continued to split work at tight end Week 12, he scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter to bring the Steelers within three points. The touchdown was his fourth of the season, but he's now been held under 20 receiving yards in back-to-back weeks. Freiermuth's fantasy potential this season has been dependent on his ability to reach the end zone, and he's secured 26 of 32 targets for 298 yards and four scores over his first 11 appearances in 2025.

Smith secured all three of his targets for 21 yards while rushing twice for seven yards during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bears.

Smith had totaled just four receiving yards over his last two appearances, but he bounced back slightly Week 12. He matched his season-high mark in yards from scrimmage but continues to split work with fellow tight ends Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth, which limits all of their fantasy upside.

Washington secured both of his targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 31-28 loss to Chicago.

Washington had just two catches in Sunday's defeat while fellow tight ends Jonnu Smith and Pat Freiermuth each had three receptions. However, Washington led the group in receiving yards and logged the most snaps of the trio, as he was on the field for 68 percent of the team's offensive plays compared to Smith's 49 percent and Freiermuth's 47 percent. Although Washington had some factors that slightly mitigated his disappointing performance, his fantasy upside is limited since he's split work with Smith and Freiermuth for most of the season.

Ogletree had two receptions for eight yards, including a four-yard touchdown, on three targets in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

Ogletree's performance came out of nowhere as he had just one target all season before Sunday. He played about his usual number of snaps on offense (11 of 51), so this may be an outlier performance. However, the Colts were coming off a bye week, so there's a chance the coaching staff plan to make him more a part of the passing game going forward.

Hockenson had four receptions for 19 yards on four targets in Sunday's loss at Green Bay.

J.J. McCarthy's abysmal play at quarterback (87 yards passing, two interceptions) has made almost every Vikings receiver a non-factor for fantasy purposes. Hockensen at least is getting some dump-off passes (seven receptions in the last two games), but they are not resulting in much yardage. Hockenson's outlook isn't any better next week in a tough matchup at Seattle.

Higgins was not targeted while playing 27 of the Cardinals' 76 offensive snaps in Sunday's 27-24 overtime loss to the Jaguars.

The 25-year-old went without a target for the second time this season while operating as the primary backup to Trey McBride, who caught nine of 10 targets for 79 yards in the Week 12 loss. Higgins has now appeared in all 11 of Arizona's games this season, catching 16 of 20 targets for 162 yards. He's expected to contribute both offensively and on special teams in the Week 13 matchup against the Buccaneers.

Hooper caught three of his four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals.

During a game in which the Patriots' TEs were more of a focal point than usual, Hunter Henry recorded seven catches for 115 yards and a TD on 10 targets, while none of the team's WRs had more than two catches. As next Monday's game against the Giants approaches, Hooper's fantasy value remains modest with Henry as the clear top option for Drake Maye at tight end.

Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Waller (pectoral) will be designated for return from injured reserve Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Waller suffered a pectoral injury Week 7 against the Browns but appears to be nearing a return to action, as Wednesday's activation will open his 21-day practice window. He's appeared in just four games this season, producing a 10-117-4 line on 12 targets as a red-zone presence for the Dolphins. Greg Dulcich and Julian Hill have been Miami's top tight-end options in Waller's absence.
