Welcome to Week 8, fantasy fans! It’s the third week of the season with four teams on a bye: the 49ers, Giants, Saints and Texans. That leaves fantasy managers without fantasy superstars George Kittle and Isaiah Likely, along with others like Dalton Schultz and Juwan Johnson.
This week’s rankings include some risers in Colston Loveland and T.J. Hockenson. There are a few streaming options based on the matchups—check out Start ’Em, Sit ’Em for all the details! Other tight ends are dealing with injuries, including Tyler Warren, and others, like Mark Andrews and Tyler Higbee, are falling due to a loss of targets or a recent lack of high-end production.
Here are my fantasy tight end rankings as we head into Week 8. Check back on a regular basis for updates, especially after the final team injury reports come out late in the week!
