We have the latest NFL injury updates on tight ends listed on the injury report heading into Week 10. Who’s in, who’s out, and what’s the status of those who are game-time decisions? Let’s take a look across the league.
Are you looking for other positions? Check out our final Week 10 injury report, which covers every skill player at quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end.
Tyler Conklin, New York Jets
Tyler Conklin popped up on the New York Jets’ Friday injury report with an ankle issue. While he’s listed as questionable for Week 10, Conklin was a full participant for Gang Green’s final practice of the week.
If he plays on Sunday, Conklin remains a risky fantasy TE2. He’s finished as a top-14 option in four of nine games, but he’s also ranked outside the top 30 TEs in four weeks.
Dallas Goedert, Philadelphia Eagles
Dallas Goedert returned to practice on Wednesday, participating in his first session since suffering a hamstring injury in Week 6. He fully practiced all week and is not listed on the Philadelphia Eagles’ injury report for Week 10.
Goedert hedged earlier this by telling reporters he’d need to see how his week of practice goes before determining whether he could play in Week 10. However, Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94WIP suggested that it “seemed pretty clear” Goedert was “intending on playing” vs. the Cowboys.
Grant Calcaterra posted at least three catches or 50 yards in three of four games as Goedert’s replacement, finishing as a top-25 fantasy TE in all three contests.
Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills
Dalton Kincaid was a full participant all week with a knee injury. This is actually an upgrade from recent weeks, as Kincaid is no longer listed with a collarbone injury. He doesn’t have an injury designation for Week 10.
The Buffalo Bills tight end has 32 receptions for 332 yards and three touchdowns on the season. With Amari Cooper out, Kincaid played 79.7% of the snaps in Week 9, his highest since Week 6 and third-highest total of the season.
It doesn’t seem as though this should be anything to limit Kincaid vs. the Indianapolis Colts. With Keon Coleman missing the game and Amari Cooper considered questionable, expect another similarly high participation rate for Kincaid.
Kyle Pitts, Atlanta Falcons
Kyle Pitts has stayed healthy this season and is on pace for his best campaign since his 2021 rookie year. On Wednesday, however, the Atlanta Falcons tight end popped up on the club’s injury report for the first time in 2024.
Pitts is dealing with a hamstring injury. Fortunately, he managed to log limited practices on both Wednesday and Thursday. Pitts put in a full practice on Friday and was removed from Atlanta’s injury report.
Pitts’ hamstring issue may have bothered him in Week 9, when he played 54% of Atlanta’s offensive snaps (his second-lowest rate of the year) while earning his worst target share (4.2%) of the season.
Ja’Tavion Sanders, Carolina Panthers
Carolina Panthers tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders popped up with a limited practice on Thursday due to wrist and ankle injuries but returned for a full session on Friday. The fourth-round rookie will not carry an injury designation into Week 10.
Given that Carolina traded Diontae Johnson and Jonathan Mingo and has Thielen on IR, Sanders is a viable fantasy option. He’s posted at least four catches or 60 yards in two of his past three games.
