Brent strange. We might have a quiet little breakout for Brenton strange here as a fantasy tight end. His route participation is kicked up every single week. 64%, 81%, 84%, 85%. He had five targets in weeks one and two combined 13 each of the last two weeks. Obviously he ripped up the Bengals defense cause they can't cover anybody up the spine.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Strange's route participation and targets climbing; ranked TE14 by Harmon vs. consensus top-20.

Brenton Strange is showing a quiet breakout at tight end with escalating route participation (64%, 81%, 84%, 85% week-over-week) and target volume increasing from 5 combined targets in weeks 1–2 to 13 targets in each of the last two weeks. He exploited the Bengals' weak coverage up the spine and faces the Philadelphia Eagles, who have struggled with tight end coverage due to linebacker Jihad Campbell's limited field presence and cornerback issues. Matt Harmon moved Strange up to tight end 14 in his rankings despite consensus rankings placing him outside the top 20.
