Evan Engram, TE, Jacksonville JaguarsÂ
Over his last four games prior to Sunday, Engram had a total of 56 yards. But he exploded at the perfect time for fantasy managers who took a chance on him, with 11 catches (on 15 targets) for 162 yards and two touchdowns against the Tennessee Titans. He has scored in back-to-back games, with 22 targets over that span.
Engram’s next two matchups aren’t great. The Dallas Cowboys (Week 15) and New York Jets (Week 16) both entered Week 14 in the top-12 against tight ends (Yahoo!, 0.5-point PPR). In Week 17, he’ll get a Houston Texans team that may be packing it in and he had six catches for 69 yards on 10 targets against back in Week 5.
Engram won’t repeat what he did on Sunday, and he’s got enough career history that we know a dud game could always be coming. But a tight end who has been heavily involved is automatically on the fantasy radar.
