With Brock Bowers back in the lineup over the last two games, Michael Mayer has been the TE13 and TE7 in weekly scoring. Mayer isn't on my streaming radar this week against a defense that has held tight ends to the sixth-fewest yards per target and the second-fewest fantasy points per opportunity.

Positive signalProjection

Mayer not a stream vs. NE; TE13/TE7 with Bowers back; tough matchup.

With Brock Bowers back in the lineup over the last two games, Mayer has been TE13 and TE7 in weekly scoring. During that span, he posted 14.1% target share, 1.70 YPRR, one red zone target, zero deep targets, and 12.2% first-read share. He is not on the streaming radar this week against New England, which has held tight ends to sixth-fewest yards per target and second-fewest fantasy points per opportunity.
