Engram has 31 flat routes and 23 outs on 144 season routes with an underneath role that hasn't translated into sufficient volume; he's been in motion on only 6% of routes and off play-action on 19%, accounting for just 10.5% of Denver's first-read targets in his games and running only 17 routes against Arizona. He gets higher route share in games Denver is projected to be trailing, making him a potential fill-in for TE Premium leagues only.

Engram should be left on the wire because his underneath role hasn't translated into enough volume. He has 31 flat routes and 23 outs on his 144 routes this season, and has been in motion at the snap on 6% of his routes and off play-action on 19%. He has accounted for 10.5% of Denver's first-read targets in his games and ran only 17 routes against Arizona. He does get a higher route share in games the team is projected to be trailing, so he could be a fill-in for TE Premium leagues in specific situations like Week 8.

Evan Engram has been as disappointing as Bo Nix has made him, according to the source. Back in Week 1, Engram finished as the TE8 overall and flirted with a top-12 finish again in Week 5 (TE17), but otherwise has been off the fantasy radar, mainly because of Nix's poor play this season. The overall matchup for the offense is enticing; the Cardinals allow the fifth-most fantasy points to tight ends (69.3 receiving yards and 0.8 touchdowns per game on average) and have allowed a tight end to score in each of their last three games. The game features a 43.5 over/under. All Engram needs to have a week that outperforms his cost is decent play from Nix. Because of the risk, Engram is a naked play for GPP contests and works best in multiple lineup builds.

Engram popped off as the TE8 in fantasy in Week 1, showing upside as a streaming option; he has a 9% target share, 1.20 YPRR, two red zone targets, two deep targets, and 10.6% first-read share; against Arizona's league-leading 69.8% two-high rate, Engram is second on the team with a 23% TPRR while logging 1.89 YPRR; Arizona has allowed the fifth-most yards per target and fourth-most fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends; the source recommends him as a desperation or deep-league streaming option only if Nix can play close to league-average.

Engram is operating in a deeply ugly environment for pass catchers. The Denver Broncos rank dead-dog last in air yards per game after Sean Payton took over a couple weeks ago. The Broncos have the league's third-lowest pass rate over expected, the fifth-lowest neutral pass rate, and the fourth-fewest offensive snaps per game. Against the Seahawks last week, Denver had a meager 108 total air yards, the second fewest of the week.
