Elite play-action TE with 362 yards off PA; league-winner upside if Colts stay in drop-back.
Tyler WarrenTEIND
Warren is positioned as a league-winner candidate with elite play-action metrics; he has 362 receiving yards off play-action this season (next closest TE at 190), 4.7 yards per route run on play-action vs. 1.13 on non-play-action, making him highly dependent on game script. His ceiling is maximized if the Colts stay in drop-back passing situations, particularly against the Chiefs' weak tight-end coverage (31st in yards per target to TEs despite facing third-fewest targets). The Chiefs' defensive game plan will attempt to slow down Warren and play-action stuff, but this is not the primary defensive focus, suggesting he could see favorable matchups if the Chiefs prioritize stopping Jonathan Taylor and the run game instead.
