STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

McLaurin's season-ending injury elevates Okonkwo to low-end TE1 with first-read target upside.

With Terry McLaurin sidelined for the season due to a patellar tendon tear, Okonkwo should see a larger offensive share. Across Weeks 5-6, he ranks third in receiving yards (129) and sixth in receptions (11) among all tight ends with a 72.6% route share and 2.11 yards per route run. Critically, after McLaurin exited last week's game, Okonkwo ranked first on the team in first-read target share. The source places him in the low-end TE1 conversation for the second half of the season, though notes he has yet to find the end zone.
