Week 10 TE Rankings

Rankings are for full-PPR scoring.

Opp Rank = opponent ranking in DK fantasy points allowed to the position (1st = toughest, 32nd = most generous), blending 2025 full-season data with limited 2026 results.

Projected points blend 2025 per-game DK fantasy averages with 2026 weekly performance, adjusted for opponent matchup, game environment, snap share and expected game script.

Injuries to Monitor

  • Travis Kelce † (Ankle): Was a full participant this week after playing in Week 9, when he caught four of six targets for 72 yards. He carries no practice limitation into the weekend.
  • Dalton Kincaid † (Ankle): Was limited Wednesday and Thursday after playing in Week 9. Monitor Friday practice reports.
  • Harold Fannin Jr. † (Groin): Was limited Wednesday and Thursday after playing in Week 9, when he scored 12.2 DK points. Monitor Friday practice reports.
  • Hunter Henry † (Foot): Was limited Thursday again after playing in Week 9, a week after leaving Week 8 with the foot injury. Eli Raridon would take on a larger role if Henry is limited Sunday in Munich.
  • T.J. Hockenson † (Wrist, chest): Did not practice Wednesday or Thursday after playing 83% of the snaps Monday night. Two missed practices put his Week 10 availability in question, so he is ranked well below his projection.
  • Tyler Higbee † (Illness): Did not practice Thursday with an illness after playing in Week 9. Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen are also on the injury report, which leaves the Rams’ tight end room thin.
  • Colby Parkinson † (Ribs): Was limited Thursday after playing in Week 9. Monitor Friday practice reports.

DraftKings DFS Value Plays

Travis Kelce ($4,700) — Chiefs @ Falcons

Game environment: Chiefs -3, O/U 47.5 (24.5 team total)

Last week: 17.3 DK points vs. NYJ

2025 PPG: 11.2 DK fantasy points (17 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 13.0

Kelce carries the fourth-highest projection at the position but only the seventh-highest Classic salary, which makes him the cleanest salary edge in the top tier. He has drawn 6.0 targets per game and played 77% of the snaps, and he has 13 catches for 183 yards over the past three games. A 24.5-point team total in a dome gives him touchdown access that most tight ends in this price range lack.

Tyler Warren ($4,400) — Colts vs. Dolphins

Game environment: Colts -3.5, O/U 38.5 (21.5 team total)

Last week: 8.4 DK points vs. DAL

2025 PPG: 11.1 DK fantasy points (17 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 12.1

Warren draws the best matchup of any top-10 tight end: Miami allows the fourth-most DK points to the position. He has played 88% of the snaps and owns a 23.2% target share, averaging 7.6 targets per game. The Week 9 result came on seven targets, so the volume held even when the production did not. At $4,400, he costs less than Dalton Kincaid, Tucker Kraft and Harold Fannin Jr., all of whom project below him.

Dalton Schultz ($3,400) — Texans @ Browns

Game environment: Texans -4.5, O/U 40.5 (22.5 team total)

Last week: 6.2 DK points @ LAC

2025 PPG: 10.5 DK fantasy points (17 games)

Projected DraftKings points: 8.8

Schultz projects ahead of Kyle Pitts Sr. and AJ Barner while costing $400 and $500 less. He has averaged 5.9 targets per game with a 17.5% share, and his 9.3 DK points per game in 2026 sit close to his 2025 pace. Marvin Harrison Jr. did not practice Thursday with a hamstring injury, which could push more short-area targets to Schultz against a Cleveland defense that ranks 19th against tight ends.
