For a second straight week, tight end production was down across the NFL in Week 12, with only six total touchdowns to the position in each of the last two weeks after 11 in Week 10 and a whopping 18 in Week 9. The position continues to be both volatile and valuable from week to week, so I’m ready to roll out this week’s top 15 TE Rankings for week 13 to help you with all your lineup decisions at the position.
The NFL is not messing around in Week 13, with all 32 teams in action with games spread throughout the holiday week. While it means no bye weeks to navigate, it can also create log jams and tough lineup decisions, so check out my rankings to help you decide who to start and who to sit.
In week 12, Hunter Henry (27.5 FPTS) led the way at the position with over 100 yards and a touchdown. Trey McBride (16.9 FPTS) continued his impressive season with the Cardinals, and the top five was rounded out by Colston Loveland (14.9 FPTS), Brenton Strange (14.3 FPTS) and Colby Parkinson (14.1 FPTS).
