Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden exploded in Week 7 against the Colts with seven catches (nine targets) for 164 yards and a touchdown. Gadsden had been working his way into a full-time role at tight end in Los Angeles, and it's all come together over the past two weeks. He's logged a route on 77% of dropbacks in each of those games and should maintain a consistent role in the offense moving forward after a performance like this. The 2025 fifth-round pick was winning at all levels of the field and had an unreal catch and run for 53 yards early in the third quarter. His 164 yards were the most in a game by a rookie tight end since Kyle Pitts in 2021. Gadsden should be the priority waiver add in all formats this week.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden caught seven of his nine targets for 164 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The highlight of his game was a 53-yard catch on the second play of the third quarter, but his 15-yard touchdown was impressive, too. The rookie has broken out recently, catching 14 passes for 232 yards and a touchdown over his last two contests. He is the overall TE1 in PPR leagues over the last two weeks. Although that's a relatively small sample size to assess, Sunday's big game showed that Gadsden's sudden success is no fluke. He should continue to operate as a primary target for Justin Herbert, giving him high-end TE2 appeal with TE1 upside.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren caught four of five targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 38-24 win over the Chargers. Warren continues an excellent start to his career and has already solidified his status as a weekly top tight end option in fantasy. Indianapolis has arguably featured the league's best offense through the first seven weeks, and Warren leads the way for them with 439 receiving yards. The rookie should remain a focal point of the Colts' offense as they use him in advantageous spots to showcase his elite yards-after-catch ability. He'll remain a top-five option headed into Week 8 against the Titans.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo had 16 carries for 60 yards along with three catches for 34 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-32 loss to the Broncos. Skattebo couldn't find a whole lot of running room against a stout Denver defense, but made up for some of it as a receiver. The rookie again maintained a firm lead in touches over Tyrone Tracy Jr., but he was more involved in this one, rushing for 46 yards and a touchdown on nine carries. Skattebo should continue to operate as the Giants' lead back and preferred option near the goal line and in the passing game, which bodes well for his fantasy value moving forward in an improving Giants offense.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison caught nine of 12 targets for 128 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Eagles. Addison was peppered with targets from quarterback Carson Wentz all game, with the 12 targets matching a career high for the 23-year-old wideout. He hasn't missed a beat since returning from his three-game suspension to begin the season, recording 18 catches for 283 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets in three games. The quarterback situation will be one to monitor for Addison moving forward, but he is talented enough to produce regardless. He's firmly in the WR2/WR3 mix moving forward.

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins rushes 14 times for 81 yards while losing a yard on one catch on the day as the Broncos exploded in the fourth quarter, scoring 33 points in Sunday's 33-32 comeback win against the New York Giants. Dobbins has been able to showcase solid production for the Broncos' rushing attack despite lacking a touchdown in the past couple of weeks. Rookie running back RJ Harvey was getting more work than usual early on in the game, but Dobbins stepped in to give the Broncos some sparks as the game went on, and he would eventually out-carry Harvey 14-4 on the day. In what could be a Week 8 shootout as the Broncos face the Dallas Cowboys at home, Dobbins should continue to provide RB2 value with upside.

Washington Commanders RB Jeremy McNichols carried the ball twice for 22 yards against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7. He also had two receptions for 23 yards.

Washington Commanders WR Chris Moore caught two passes (on five targets) for 59 yards in a Week 7 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

New Orleans Saints WR Brandin Cooks had one reception for three yards in a Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. caught seven of his nine targets for 58 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 win over the Indianapolis Colts. The 28-year-old bounced back after catching just two passes last weekend. He has quietly established himself as the overall WR10 in scoring this season (PPR), and his schedule will only get easier over the next two weeks as he takes on the Titans and Steelers. Facing Tennessee in Week 8 should keep Pittman in the low-end WR1 tier. In his last outing against the Titans, he caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson carried the ball 14 times for 40 rushing yards during Sunday's Week 7 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. He also caught six of his eight targets for an additional 52 receiving yards and one touchdown. The 23-year-old posted his worst single-game rushing efficiency since Week 1, but he made up for it with his impact in the passing game and his trip to the end zone. Robinson is the overall RB5 in PPR leagues this year, and he could rise up the leaderboard after next week's very favorable matchup against the Miami Dolphins. After all, Miami, which just surrendered three touchdowns to Quinshon Judkins, has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025.

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger caught three of his four targets for 88 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 loss against the Denver Broncos. The highlight of his performance was a 44-yard trip to the end zone in the first quarter, breaking a scoreless tie. Once again, Bellinger and Theo Johnson were able to co-exist in this offense, as Johnson caught three passes for 66 yards and a score. It's the second time in the last three weeks that the duo has combined for at least seven catches in a single game. The two tight ends have seen an uptick in volume with receiver Malik Nabers (knee) done for the year, and they should continue to carve out roles for themselves going forward. Johnson has been a steadier contributor so far, but Bellinger is worthy of low-end TE2 consideration in deeper leagues. He'll take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson caught three of his seven targets for 66 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 7 loss against the Los Angeles Chargers. The highlight of his performance was a 41-yard touchdown in which Johnson caught the pass that had deflected off one of his teammates. The 24-year-old has been quite productive since the Giants lost Malik Nabers (knee), posting 14 catches, 143 yards, and four touchdowns over his last four games. During that four-week window, he's the overall TE5 in PPR leagues. Interestingly, he has shown that he can co-exist alongside Daniel Bellinger, as the two tight ends have combined for at least seven catches in two of the Giants' last three games. With that being said, Johnson, whose fantasy value has become touchdown-dependent, remains the preferred option in the passing game over Bellinger. He's a mid-to-high TE2 heading into Week 8 against Philadelphia.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs came into Sunday's Week 7 game versus the Arizona Cardinals with a questionable tag thanks to a calf injury that popped up late in the week. Jacobs tested his calf during pre-game warmups and was cleared to play. The 27-year-old had a modest 13 rushing attempts on the day in the 27-23 victory for 55 yards, but he was able to salvage his day for his fantasy managers by scoring two touchdowns. Jacobs caught his only target in the passing game for three yards. Perhaps he was a bit limited by his calf injury, as his 13 carries were a season low, but it didn't stop Jacobs from scoring on the ground twice for the third straight game. Jacobs now has eight trips to the end zone on the ground in 2025, with the Sept. 21 game against the Cleveland Browns being the only game that he hasn't found paydirt for Green Bay. He won't have the best of matchups next Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8, but Jacobs' volume alone and nose for the end zone make him a pretty safe RB2.

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (pectoral) was diagnosed with a pectoral strain following Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Cleveland Browns, according to agent Drew Rosenhaus. Waller will undergo an MRI on Monday morning. Both the team and player are hoping to avoid the worst-case scenario, which is a torn pectoral that would sideline him for the rest of the season. If the injury is less severe, Waller could miss a shorter period of time and would perhaps be able to avoid an injured reserve stint. Regardless, it does appear as though Waller is at risk of missing at least some time. Julian Hill and Tanner Conner are the next tight ends on the depth chart, but neither player possesses significant fantasy relevance.

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams had his second 100-yard rushing performance of the season in the Week 7 victory over the visiting Washington Commanders on Sunday. In the 44-22 win, Williams was dominant on the ground, going for 116 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries (6.1 yards per carry). It was the 25-year-old's second game in 2025 with over 100 rushing yards, and it was a nice bounce-back effort after he had a season-low 29 ground yards on 13 carries in last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers. He added just one catch on four targets for a gain of two yards. Williams showed his bruising style of play and was able to pick up chunk gains out of the backfield against a weak Commanders defense on Sunday. He is averaging over 5.0 yards per tote in his first year in Dallas and is well on his way to a breakout in his fifth NFL season in Dallas' high-scoring offense. Williams has become a must-start RB2 in fantasy, but it could be tough sledding against his old team, the Denver Broncos, in a Week 8 showdown.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson has quickly become one of quarterback Dak Prescott's favorite targets in the passing game, and it didn't hurt that he wore his QB's high-school jersey to the stadium as a show of good faith. In the 44-22 blowout victory over the Washington Commanders in Week 7 on Sunday, Ferguson caught all seven of his targets for only 29 yards, but he found the end zone twice to bring his season total to six. In a high-volume Cowboys passing offense, the 26-year-old has developed some nice chemistry with Prescott this year. Ferguson has exactly seven receptions in three of the last four weeks, and all six of his touchdowns on the season have come in the last four games. His ceiling will likely be lowered now that top wideout CeeDee Lamb has returned from a high-ankle sprain, but Ferguson's red-zone prowess should continue, making him a weekly TE1 for fantasy managers in what has been a high-scoring offense.

San Francisco 49ers WR Demarcus Robinson went without a catch or any offensive statistics on one target in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Kansas City Chiefs said that wide receiver Rashee Rice was going to be heavily involved in the offensive game plan in his season debut in Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday after serving his six-game suspension, and they were not lying. Rice picked up right where he left off last year, securing seven of his 10 targets for 42 yards and his first two touchdowns of 2025 in the team's 31-0 blowout win over the Raiders. The 25-year-old led the team in targets and catches on the day and reminded everyone why he was quarterback Patrick Mahomes' favorite target in the passing game last year before he suffered a season-ending knee injury. Rice's longest catch of the game only went for 12 yards, but fantasy managers have to be very pleased with what they saw from him in his season debut. Now that he's back from suspension, Rice should be locked and loaded into all starting fantasy lineups for a Monday night matchup in Week 8 against the Washington Commanders and their porous secondary.

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle was targeted twice in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons, but he was unable to record any receptions in his first game back from the Reserve/Injured list.

Fantasy Spin: Kittle's return was a huge disappointment. He'll look to rebound in Week 8 at Houston, and it coincides with National Tight Ends Day, a concept he came up with a few years back. You can expect Kittle to be much better, and as long as he is active, he is a top-tier fantasy tight end.
