49ers
San Francisco 49ers tight end Eric Saubert is on the fantasy radar for Week 11 after ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that George Kittle (hamstring) is expected to be inactive Sunday. Kittle has only missed one other game this season, but in that contest, Saubert played 86 percent of the offensive snaps and caught two passes for 41 yards. While his production wasn't otherworldly, he clearly earned additional looks on offense, and that should remain true this Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks. Saubert finds himself ranking as a low-end TE2 at best.

Eric Saubert Hauls In Two Passes In Week 3
San Francisco 49ers tight end Eric Saubert was minimally involved but efficient in the team's passing game during a 27-24 loss to the Rams in Los Angeles. Saubert, filling in for George Kittle (hamstring), did good work in the run-block game and caught two-of-two targets for 41 yards. There are no updates on Kittle's injury at this time, but there are no indications that he's dealing with a multiple-week injury. Even if Kittle were to miss again, it seems likely that Sunday's performance is on the high side of what might be expected from Saubert in Week 4 versus the New England Patriots.

Eric Saubert Likely To Draw Start, Not Recommended For Lineups
San Francisco 49ers tight end Eric Saubert is expected to step in for George Kittle when the team is in Los Angeles to face the Rams in Week 3. Saubert, 30, spent time with six other teams before signing with San Francisco this offseason. In Week 2, Saubert saw his snaps increase as Kittle experienced cramping throughout the afternoon. The journeyman caught two of two targets for 26 yards in that one. Saubert has only two career touchdowns and has never eclipsed the five catches for 36 yards he put up as a member of the Denver Broncos in Week 5 of 2023 versus the Indianapolis Colts. If anyone can take statistical advantage of Kittle's absence, it could just as easily be fullback Kyle Juszczyk, who sometimes runs routes out the tight end position and has shown adequate ball skills and awareness for modest production in fantasy. Both Saubert and Jusczcyk could contribute in DFS if angling for a touchdown at rock-bottom prices, but one can surely do better in redraft formats regardless of league size.

49ers Sign Eric Saubert
The San Francisco 49ers signed free-agent tight end Eric Saubert to an undisclosed one-year deal on Monday. Saubert was initially drafted in the fifth round (174th overall) by the Atlanta Falcons in 2017 out of Drake. The 29-year-old spent the first two years of his NFL career in Atlanta before stops with the Chicago Bears, Jacksonville Jaguars, Denver Broncos, Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans. He was with the Cowboys and Texans in 2023 and caught all three of his targets for 12 yards in 10 games (one start). Saubert has 36 career receptions on 55 targets for 292 yards and two touchdowns in 84 games (16 starts) in his seven NFL seasons. In San Francisco this year, Saubert will operate as tight end depth behind starter George Kittle alongside Brayden Willis, Cameron Latu and Jake Tonges.

Brevin Jordan, Eric Saubert In Line For Bigger Roles In Week 13
Houston Texans tight ends Brevin Jordan and Eric Saubert will see bigger roles in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos with Dalton Schultz (hamstring) already ruled out for the contest. Jordan will likely fill in as Schultz's replacement on Sunday, while Saubert will act as the TE2 for Houston. Both tight ends have a great matchup in Week 13 against a Broncos secondary that is giving up the most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. Jordan should have more of an impact in this game but should only be started in deep formats or tight end premium leagues.

Texans Sign Eric Saubert Off Cowboys Practice Squad
The Houston Texans signed tight end Eric Saubert off the Dallas Cowboys practice squad on Tuesday. Saubert played with the Cowboys in Week 8, playing just 14 special teams snaps. But since Houston is dealing with several injuries to its tight end group, they signed the 29-year-old for depth purposes. With Teagan Quitoriano (groin) placed on the injured reserve list and Brevin Jordan (foot) expected to miss some time, Saubert will likely backup starter Dalton Schultz. However, he doesn't carry much fantasy value, even in tight end premium leagues.

Eric Saubert, Eric Tomlinson Active For Week 18
Denver Broncos tight ends Eric Saubert (knee) and Eric Tomlinson (ankle) are officially active for Week 18 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Both players had been questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. With Greg Dulcich on IR, Saubert stepped up last week, catching three passes for 30 yards. Meanwhile, Tomlinson saw a solid 33 percent snap share but was not targeted in Week 17. Both players are a bit too risky to trust in this week's fantasy championships.

Eric Saubert Set For Bigger Role Entering Week 17
Denver Broncos tight end Eric Saubert should start and be the team's primary pass-catching tight end for the final two games of the season after the Broncos placed rookie Greg Dulcich (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Friday. Behind Dulcich, Saubert has been the Broncos' second-leading tight end this year in catches (12), targets (21) and receiving yards (118) while scoring one touchdown in 15 games. He'll be facing a Kansas City Chiefs defense that has allowed the eighth-most half-PPR fantasy points to TEs in the last three weeks, but fantasy managers can't trust Saubert in Denver's lackluster offense. Fellow tight ends Eric Tomlinson and Albert Okwuegbunam could be more involved as well, and both receivers Jerry Jeudy (ankle) and Courtland Sutton should be quarterback Russell Wilson's favorite targets.

Eric Saubert Questionable For Week 6
Denver Broncos tight end Eric Saubert (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers. He was limited in practice all week long, meaning he has a realistic chance to play this week as long as he doesn't suffer a setback. The 28-year-old logged an impressive five catches and 36 yards last week, but with the Broncos distributing the football to a variety of tight ends, Saubert doesn't have standalone fantasy value.

Eric Saubert Secures Season-High Five Catches In Week 5
Denver Broncos tight end Eric Saubert outplayed teammate Albert Okwuegbunam in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday night. Saubert played 56 percent of the team's offensive snaps in the 12-9 overtime loss, catching a season-high five passes on seven targets for 36 yards. Meanwhile, Okwuegbunam played 21 percent of the snaps and caught his only target for a five-yard gain. Saubert's seven targets were third on the team behind receivers Courtland Sutton (11) and Jerry Jeudy (eight). Okwuegbunam came into the year as the projected top pass-catching tight end, but Saubert remains involved and might have surpassed Albert O on the depth chart. Neither tight end isn't worth rostering in 12-team leagues, but Okwuegbunam's stock has fallen considerably.
