2025 Fantasy Football Rankings – Tight Ends

Last Updated: August 18


Top 10 | 11-20 | 21-45 |

Other Positions: QB | RB | WR | TE
11. Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs. Bye: 10.

Travis Kelce just had the lowest receiving yardage of his career. He’s 36, so he’ll continue to regress.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 67 catches. 640 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 100.

12. Jonnu Smith, TE, Steelers. Bye: 5.

Jonnu Smith had a breakout season for the Dolphins last year, but he’ll have fewer targets in Pittsburgh.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 65 catches. 690 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 99.

13. David Njoku, TE, Browns. Bye: 9.

For the second consecutive season, David Njoku came alive when Deshaun Watson was supplanted. Watson is out for 2025, which is great news for Njoku.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 65 catches. 630 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 99.

14. Jake Ferguson, TE, Cowboys. Bye: 10.

Jake Ferguson missed time due to injury and then dealt with terrible quarterbacking.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 69 catches. 680 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 98.

15. Brenton Strange, TE, Jaguars. Bye: 8.

Trevor Lawrence targeted Brenton Strange on third downs in the second preseason game. He found Strange on early third-and-8 and then a third-and-2. We’ve been told that Strange is the replacement for Evan Engram, and it certainly looks that way.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 65 catches. 680 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 98.

16. Tyler Higbee, TE, Rams. Bye: 8.

Tyler Higbee barely played last year because he was coming off a torn ACL. He should bounce back in 2025, especially with Cooper Kupp gone.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 65 catches. 610 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 97.

17. Isaiah Likely, TE, Ravens. Bye: 7.

Isaiah Likely will have surgery on his ankle. He could return for Week 1, but it’s more likely that he won’t be ready until Week 3 or so.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 53 catches. 600 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 96.

18. Pat Freiermuth, TE, Steelers. Bye: 5.

Russell Wilson and Pat Freiermuth developed great chemistry in practice during the summer, and it showed when Wilson took over for Justin Fields.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 57 catches. 590 receiving yards. 6 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 95.

19. Theo Johnson, TE, Giants. Bye: 14.

Theo Johnson is an athletic tight end with plenty of upside.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 57 catches. 650 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 95.

20. Dalton Kincaid, TE, Bills. Bye: 7.

Dalton Kincaid had a huge rookie year with 73 receptions. His catches dropped to 44 last season because of a knee injury. He should bounce back in 2025.

Projected 2025 Fantasy Stats: 61 catches. 630 receiving yards. 5 total TDs.
Projected 2025 Fantasy Points: 93.
