Eric Saubert Fantasy

Denver Broncos third-string tight end Eric Saubert caught a one-yard touchdown pass in the 28-13 Week 12 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers. Saubert had just the one target in the entire game, and it was the first touchdown of his career. On the season, the 27-year-old has eight catches on 11 targets for 47 yards and the touchdown in 10 games. Saubert hasn't played more than 42% of the team's offensive snaps in any one game in 2021, and he would only come into fantasy value if both Noah Fant and Albert Okwuegbunam missed time with injuries. Don't ready anything into his first career trip to paydirt in the crucial divisional win over the Chargers.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Eric Saubert was one of the team's three players at the position in 2018, but team re-signed Logan Paulsen while adding Luke Stocker in free agency. And Austin Hooper is the unquestioned starter and one of the more productive tight ends in the NFC. Saubert might be the odd-man out heading into training camp and the preseason unless they elect to keep four tight ends on the 53-man roster. Either way, Saubert isn't someone to bother with in fantasy football.

Atlanta Falcons tight end Eric Saubert had a 44-yard reception in the preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars Saturday. The downside for Saubert is that the pass he caught was thrown by Matt Schaub and not Matt Ryan. A reception for Saubert from Ryan would have demonstrated that he may have a place with the first-team offense this season. However, right now Sauber is still in competition with Logan Paulsen or the second tight end spot behind Austin Hooper. Saubert will likely not have much fantasy value this season, without an injury to Hooper opening up the position of pass catching tight end.
