Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton ended up with three receptions for a game-best 70 yards on four targets in Week 14 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: Otton emerged as a TE1 in most fantasy leagues when Mike Evans was sidelined, and the tight end was the top option for Baker Mayfield in the pass game. He had tailed off in recent games upon Evans' return. Despite this solid stat line, continue treating him as more of a high-end TE2 in most fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton recorded four receptions for 20 yards on seven targets in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers.
Huddle Up: Otton has managed 10 receptions for just 85 yards with no touchdowns in the past three games. Since the return of Mike Evans, Otton has taken a bit of a backseat after being the focal point of the offense. He is back to TE2 status heading into Week 14 against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton caught one pass for 30 yards against the New York Giants in Week 12. He was targeted three times during the game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton registered team highs with eight catches, 77 yards and 11 targets in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs, while adding a touchdown. He is tied for the second-longest streak (three games) with eight or more receptions and 75 or more receiving yards by a tight end in NFL history, trailing only Travis Kelce (Nov. 1-Dec. 13, 2020).
Huddle Up: Otton has really stepped up since Mike Evans and Chris Godwin went down in Week 7. He took advantage of a Chiefs team which allows more fantasy points to opposing tight ends than any other team. Otton has quickly emerged as a TE1 in all fantasy leagues. The Buccaneers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 10.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton caught nine of his 10 targets for 81 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-26 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 8.
Huddle Up: With injuries to Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, Otton continues to serve as the go-to option for Baker Mayfield. Over the last two games, Otton has 17 grabs for 181 yards and two scores. He looks like a must-start option right now.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton posted eight receptions for a career-high 100 yards on 10 targets in the Week 7 game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: Otton was useful once Mike Evans left the game early due to a hamstring injury, and his fantasy appeal is sure to rise with Chris Godwin looking like he might have a long-term injury. Baker Mayfield trusted the hulking tight end down the stretch, and that could be a pass-catch combo which makes noise out of necessity. Let's treat Otton as a low-end TE1 heading into Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers TE Cade Otton finished with two receptions for 15 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 6 against the New Orleans Saints.
Huddle Up: Otton's yardage total was his worst since Week 2 in Detroit when he was blanked on two targets. However, he did have his first visit to the end zone of 2024. He remains more of a TE2 in most fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams.

Huddle Up: Otton, who had five yards receiving through two games, has delivered 47, 52, and 44 yards, respectively, over the last three outings on a combined 16 receptions. Most years, that type of production wouldn't really move the needle, but with injuries and poor performances depleting the tight end pool, Otton belongs on your radar.
