Welcome to Week 5, fantasy fans! It’s the first week with byes, as the Chiefs and Panthers are off. That means you’ll have to prepare for a week of fantasy matchups without Travis Kelce and Darren Waller. Neither was very productive in Week 4, but both have starting value regardless!
This week’s rankings include some risers in T.J. Hockenson and Mike Gesicki, and there are a fair number of streaming options based on the matchups—check out Start ’Em, Sit ’Em for all the details! A number of tight ends have also seen their value fall, none more than Kenyon Sadiq (after last week’s goose egg) and Dalton Kincaid, who has had two straight stinkers.
Here are my fantasy tight end rankings as we head into Week 5. Check back on a regular basis for updates, especially after the final team injury reports come out late in the week!
