Hill rushed six times for 13 yards, caught one pass for seven yards and failed to complete his lone pass attempt in Sunday's 13-0 loss to San Francisco.

Hill was denied by the 49ers' stout defense anytime the versatile player was called upon. The seven touches were nice from the tight-end eligible fantasy asset, but everyone struggled offensively with the Saints being shut out for the first time since 2002. Hill has the ability to pop off for crooked fantasy totals, but his recent stretch of stinkers really highlights the boom-or-bust nature of his utility. The Swiss army knife will look to get his season back on track in an important matchup against the Buccaneers next Monday.

Moreau caught three of seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Seahawks.

The tight end had trouble converting his opportunities early, but Moreau came through when it counted, hauling in a five-yard toss from Derek Carr in the back of the end zone with just under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter to send the game to OT. Moreau has two touchdowns on the season, both coming in the last three games, and with Darren Waller (hamstring) out for at least one more week, he'll head up the depth chart once again in Week 13 against the Chargers.

Akins caught five of five targets for a team-high 61 yards and a 25-yard touchdown catch in Sunday's 30-15 loss to Miami in Week 12. He also had a fumble that turned into a Dolphins defensive touchdown.

Akins hauled in his first touchdown since Week 3 and had his fifth catch of more than 20 yards. That helped make up for the fumble, which came after a jarring hit by safety Eric Rowe. It's looking like the benching of Brevin Jordan -- at three consecutive weeks and running -- is a permanent decision, so Akins should continue to see the bulk of targets at tight end.

Wesco caught a three-yard pass in the Bears' 31-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Wesco has two catches on four targets this season, and he isn't a significant part of the Chicago passing attack, making him a player to avoid when setting weekly fantasy lineups.

Kmet caught two passes for 27 yards in the Bears' 31-10 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

With Justin Fields (shoulder) sitting out, Trevor Siemian threw six passes to Kmet, leading the team. But with the Bears struggling to move the ball after their first few drives, there was very little production in the passing game to go around. It's unlikely that Kmet reaches his weekly fantasy value until Fields returns to the lineup.

Bryant caught two of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 23-17 overtime victory over the Buccaneers.

Bryant's workload picked up while David Njoku missed two games and was slowed in his return last week from an ankle injury, but the starting tight end was back in form Sunday. That resulted in fewer snaps and looks for Bryant, who had 10 targets the last two games. With Deshaun Watson due back from his 11-game suspension next week at Houston, Bryant could see an uptick in production going forward.

Njoku secured five of seven targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in the Browns' 23-17 overtime win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Njoku's day was mostly pedestrian until he recorded an outstanding one-handed 12-yard touchdown grab in the back of the end zone with 32 seconds remaining to send the game into overtime. Njoku notably saw five more targets than fellow tight end Harrison Bryant, who'd taken on a larger role during his teammate's recent absence with an ankle injury. Njoku's trip to the end zone was his first since Week 3 and only his second of the season, giving him some momentum going into Deshaun Watson's debut as the starting quarterback against the Texans in Week 13.

Dulcich caught two of three targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Panthers.

Dulcich showed promise in his first three appearances after debuting in Week 6, accumulating 182 receiving yards and a touchdown on 17 targets. The rookie tight end has cooled off in three games since, failing to jump-start a sputtering Broncos offense while turning 12 targets into just 52 yards. Dulcich will look to get back on track against the Ravens in Week 13.

Horsted (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Horsted did not log any offensive statistics before exiting at some point versus Seattle. The tight end will now need to clear the league's concussion protocol before suiting up again, and his next chance to play will come against the Chargers on Sunday, Dec. 4. With Horsted out and Jacob Hollister (coach's decision) inactive, Foster Moreau will serve as the Raiders' only available tight end for the remainder of this Week 12 contest.

Andrews recorded four receptions on seven targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Jaguars.

Andrews tallied four catches for 33 yards on Baltimore's opening drive and appeared to be in for a big performance. While he still led the team in targets, he slowed significantly from that point, managing only a 17-yard catch and a two-point conversion across the rest of the game. Andrews also dropped a pass in the end zone and has not scored a touchdown or topped 65 receiving yards since Week 6.
