Investors made a bet on Tate's talent at the top of the season. Understanding that evolution takes time, it looks as though that wager is beginning to pay off. The rookie leads the Titans in routes (114) and targets (32), having drawn at least nine looks in back-to-back games. Over his past three outings, Tate has commanded a dominant 32.5% target share, ranking ahead of established lineup locks such as Amon-Ra St. Brown and Tetairoa McMillan.

Tate's 32.5% target share over three games sets up WR2 production vs. Houston.

Tate leads the Titans in routes (114) and targets (32), having drawn at least nine looks in back-to-back games. Over his past three outings, Tate has commanded a dominant 32.5% target share, ranking ahead of established lineup locks such as Amon-Ra St. Brown and Tetairoa McMillan. His growing offensive aptitude and swelling chemistry with Cam Ward were on display at Baltimore, where he flashed with three grabs of 15+ yards after recording just one such catch through the initial three contests. That momentum is primed to accelerate versus the Texans. Houston's defense has experienced severe regression, allowing three pass catchers to cross 100 receiving yards in 2026 after allowing only five in all of 2025. Currently giving up the most fantasy points per game to the position, the Texans have allowed at least one wideout to eclipse 18 PPR points in every single outing. This positions Tate to post double-digit fantasy numbers and deliver WR2 fantasy production.
