TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Los Angeles Chargers
Even with the recent emergence of Chig Okonkwo, Austin Hooper still managed five catches for 68 yards in Week 14 against Jacksonville. Hooper still has a role in the Titans' offense, but the team's run-heavy tendencies and Okonkwo's increased playing time in recent games makes Hooper a volatile fantasy producer. This week the Titans face off with the Chargers, who are roughly average at defending opposing tight ends. Hooper's floor remains low, but he looks like a decent TE2 given his recent role in the offense.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
Austin Hooper's playing time took a hit in Week 13 to the benefit of rookie Chigoziem Okonkwo. Hooper only played 41% of the team's offensive snaps and caught three of his five targets for 22 scoreless yards. Hooper has not been much of a fantasy asset this season, and the recent emergence of Okonkwo is not helping his cause. Hooper is not a viable fantasy starter right now.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 at Philadelphia Eagles
Austin Hooper crashed back to Earth in Week 12 with a 3-30-0 line on four targets. Hooper's two-touchdown explosion in Week 11 was an aberration rather than something to expect moving forward, and will probably end up being Hooper's best game of the season by far. A matchup with a Philadelphia defense that is above average against opposing tight ends doesn't help Hooper's cause this week. Hooper is still waiver wire material despite a good showing two weeks ago.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Cincinnati Bengals
Austin Hooper finished as Week 11's TE3 by catching all four of his targets for 36 yards and two touchdowns. Before Week 11, Hooper hadn't finished better than the weekly TE14 on the season. It should be noted that Hooper's two best games of the season have come in the last two weeks, but we still need to see more before declaring him a legitimate starting option in fantasy leagues.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Green Bay Packers
Austin Hooper showed some small signs of life with a 5-41-0 line in Week 10 against the Broncos' strong defense. Still, Hooper is an ancillary option in a low-volume and non-explosive passing attack. He has a bottomless floor and is nothing more than a middling TE2 in fantasy leagues.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Buffalo Bills
Austin Hooper was out-targeted by Geoff Swaim (4-to-2) and finished with a single catch for six yards in Week 1 against the Giants. As an ancillary option in a low-volume passing offense, Hooper is not worthy of starting in fantasy leagues.

TEN TE Austin Hooper - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. New York Giants
The Giants defense notched a mediocre finish in fantasy points allowed to opposing TEs last year, but Austin Hooper's issues with achieving fantasy relevance stem more from an uncertain role on a low-volume passing team than matchup concerns. The Titans are a dedicated run-first team on the back of Derrick Henry, meaning there is a relatively low amount of targets to go around in the first place, and Hooper will likely be no higher than third in the pecking order for Ryan Tannehill's passes. Hooper is best left on waivers in most leagues, and even in deeper formats he's no better than a TE2.
