Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange finished the season on a positive note in a 26-23 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The second-year tight end finished with four catches for 60 yards. After an 11-catch, 73-yard performance against the New York Jets back in Week 15, Strange has struggled to produce. While this Week 18 performance isn't anything special, it is at least a positive way to end the season for the young tight end. Evan Engram went out with an injury for the last few weeks, paving the way for Strange to get looks as a starter. It will be interesting to see what the Jaguars do with the veteran tight end Engram after firing head coach Doug Pederson. It is hard to tell right now, but Strange could be in line for a solid season in a starter role in the 2025 NFL season.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange has been an inconsistent fantasy asset this season, and should continue that way in Week 18. He could be in line for more involvement in the passing game this week given the game doesn't matter and the Colts pass defense was gashed last week by Drew Lock and the Giants offense. That likely means more touchdowns and more success through the air than normal for Mac Jones, who may be fighting for a starting job with another team next season. With that being said, Strange has had some stinkers as of late, and hasn't done much besides an 11 catch, 73 yard performance against the New York Jets. Unless he can find the endzone, Strange is an extreme boom-or-bust tight end in Week 18.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange, who has been plagued by inconsistency as a starter since Evan Engram suffered a season-ending injury, finished with zero fantasy points in a 20-13 win over the Tennessee Titans. Strange coming into the game was likely considered by some fantasy managers as a potential starting tight end as a touchdown-dependent, boom-or-bust option. Given the volatility of the position, that was a fair thought process. However, given the Jaguars lackluster offense, a dud was always possible. Besides Week 15, where he put up 11 catches for 73 yards, Strange has combined for seven catches since Week 10. He has shown flashes since taking over as the starter, but not enough to warrant being a reliable fantasy option going forward. Strange and the Jaguars face the Indianapolis Colts in Week 18 to round out the season.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange is tough to trust in fantasy championship lineups in Week 17 against the Tennessee Titans. The sophomore tight end put up just two catches for 22 yards and fumbled last week against the Las Vegas Raiders after an 11 catch, 73 yard performance against the New York Jets in Week 15. That all came after a one catch, 21 yard performance in Week 14, the last time he faced the Titans. Strange also has been dealing with a shoulder injury for the past few weeks, which limited him at practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but he fully practiced Friday and has no injury tag heading into Sunday. For fantasy managers looking for a tight end to stream this week, Strange is just too unpredictable and a bit banged up to boot to put in fantasy lineups in Week 17.
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange (shoulder) remained a limited participant during Thursday's practice session. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status during Friday's session as Strange may carry an injury designation into the weekend if he cannot update to full participation. After enjoying an impressive 11-catch 73-yard performance in Week 15 against the New York Jets, Strange had a disappointing showing last Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders as he brought in just two of his four targets for 22 yards. If Strange can suit up on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, fantasy managers should view him as a high-end TE2 as the Titans have defended opposing tight ends quite well, allowing the sixth-fewest PPR points to the position this season.
