Strange has emerged as a primary target for the Jaguars over his last three games, posting 19-207-0 on 23 targets. He ranked TE7 in PPR scoring from Week 4 to Week 6 without scoring a touchdown. With WR Brian Thomas Jr. effectively vanishing from the Jacksonville offense, Strange has played a larger role. QB Trevor Lawrence has a history of targeting tight ends (Evan Engram had 114 catches and 963 yards in 2023 with Lawrence). Strange has thrived against single-high safety coverage, averaging 0.30 targets per route run and 2.82 yards per route run in that shell. In Week 8, he faces the Colts, who entered Week 7 having played single-high safety at the 11th-highest rate in the league.

Jaguars tight end disrespected by fantasy managers despite consistent volume; high-end TE2 streamer with low-end TE1 potential, averaging sixth-most targets among tight ends over last month with at least seven targets in each outing during that span. Posted three usable stat lines of 7-95-0, 7-68-0 and 5-44-0 including two top-12 weekly fantasy finishes. Earning volume that could make production more sustainable; needs to be rostered especially in week with George Kittle and Isaiah Likely on bye.

Over his last three games, Strange has 19-207-0 on 23 targets and was TE7 in PPR scoring from Week 4 to Week 6 without scoring a touchdown. With WR Brian Thomas Jr. having effectively vanished from the Jacksonville offense, Strange has been playing a larger role. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence certainly doesn't mind throwing to tight ends. Strange has thrived against single-high safety coverage shells this season, averaging 0.30 targets per route run and 2.82 yards per route run vs. single-high coverage. In Week 8, he faces a Colts defense that had played single-high safety at the 11th-highest rate in the league entering Week 7.

Strange was called for holding on a play where Bhayshul Tuten appeared to have scored a touchdown, wiping out the score and forcing Jacksonville to start again. The source notes this penalty was 'particularly frustrating because the offense had already done the difficult work of moving into scoring territory,' and it ultimately led to Trevor Lawrence throwing an end-zone interception to Houston cornerback Kamari Lassiter, leaving the Jaguars empty-handed.
