Outlook Brenton Strange

Brenton Strange vs. Colts: High-Floor TE Option in Favorable Home Matchup

Brenton Strange operates as Jacksonville's clear top tight end and a primary target in the intermediate passing game. Over his last three games, Strange has seen reliable volume with at least seven targets in each, including five grabs for 44 yards in his last outing. With wideout Jakobi Meyers questionable with a hamstring injury, Trevor Lawrence will likely keep relying on Strange against an Indianapolis defense riding a three-game skid.

Now rostered in 77% of leagues, Strange offers dependable lineup value. Our weekly projections anticipate around 5 catches for 57 yards on roughly 7 targets (12.4 fantasy points). Playing as heavy home favorites, Strange boasts a steady PPR floor and fringe TE1 upside, making him a strong start across standard formats.
