From the article

He's quietly putting together a productive fantasy season, ranking 13th among tight ends in fantasy points per game (10.1), largely because he has the position's 10th-largest target share (19%) and fourth-best catch rate (81%). That keeps him barely beneath the fantasy TE1 cutoff most weeks, but a Texans matchup is limiting to his upside. The Texans have struggled much more against wide receivers (6.5 Adj. FPA) than tight ends (minus-3.2 Adj. FPA) and have afforded the position a single target in the red zone so far.
