Let’s look at the top tight ends from Week 9:
1) Dallas Goedert (Philadelphia Eagles)
The 27-year-old Philly tight end was targeted nine times against the Texans, out of which he made eight successful receptions. He had a four-yard reception for the six-point play at the NRG Stadium in Houston on Thursday Night.
2) Cole Kmet (Chicago Bears)
The Chicago Bears tasted a hard-fought 32-35 defeat against the Miami Dolphins. The third-year TE caught five passes for 41 yards and scored two touchdowns apart from the ones that QB Justin Fields and wide receiver Darnell Mooney scored.
3) Cade Otton (Tampa Bay Buccaneers)
It was all thanks to QB Tom Brady and tight end Otton who helped the Buccaneers snap their three-game losing streak. Otton scored the Buccaneers’ only receiving TD that too when just only nine seconds were left on the clock to end the game.

5) Noah Fant (Seattle Seahawks)
Fant played a key role in the Seahawks’ impressive away victory over the Cardinals. Even though Fant did not contribute with a TD of his own, he was still part of the offense as he caught five receptions for 96 yards.
