Last week we had a total of eight touchdowns from tight ends.

This week , we’ve been blessed with a record-setting 16 through the afternoon games.

Cade Otton led the way as Baker Mayfield ’s most reliable target, hauling in nine receptions on 10 targets for 81 yards .

Kyle Pitts has emerged as the big-play threat we knew he could be.

Tucker Kraft has caught five touchdowns in the last five weeks since solidifying his role as TE1 in Green Bay .

Sam LaPorta's touchdown dependency presents a major issue with Jameson Williams emerging as the Lions’ WR2.

Evan Engram was outplayed by Brenton Strange , but it was still a solid day for him.

Trey McBride has been one of the most reliable tight ends in the league.

Dalton Kincaid , Adam Trautman , Travis Kelce , Brock Bowers and Zach Ertz had strong performances for the Chiefs.

DeAndre Hopkins wasn’t much of a factor in his first game with the Chiefs — although it will be interesting to see the snap count and if his presence helped open up volume for Xavier Worthy .
