Draft note
by John Paulsen
After a TE11 finish in 2023, Dalton Schultz slipped to TE22 last season as his usage dipped slightly—his targets fell from 5.8 to 5.1 per game, and he posted five-year lows in both receptions (53) and receiving yards (532). Still, he remained a steady presence in the Texans' passing game, offering C.J. Stroud a reliable safety valve in the middle of the field. The low touchdown total (2) certainly didn’t help Schultz’s fantasy output, but he’s still a trusted piece of the offense and has a track record of TE1-caliber production. He’s unlikely to post TE1 numbers, especially with Houston’s wide receiver room gaining depth, but he’s a viable streamer or TE2 who could flirt with low-end TE1 value in any given week.

HOU TE Dalton Schultz - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Baltimore Ravens

Dalton Schultz is on a bit of a streak. He has five catches and a touchdown in two of his last three games. He effectively is now the second receiving option after Nico Collins now that Tank Dell is out. If Week 16 is any indication (eight targets), C.J. Stroud could be looking his way plenty the rest of the season. There's some streaming intrigue this week with Schultz. In fact, we have Schultz ranked as a starting tight end as TE9.
