Noah Fant

Week 8 vs Buffalo Bills

Noah Fant has had two decent games in his last two, catching all ten of his targets over the two games and posting in excess of 60 receiving yards in each. He still only averages 5.5 Half-PPR points per game and sits at TE22 in Half-PPR points per game. But let’s be positive here.

The Bills have not exactly bled fantasy points to tight ends in 2024 and rank 11th in aFPA. We have Fant as our TE21 for the week, although if he can build (or maintain) his recent form then he might be able to give us just a little bit more.

Week 6 vs San Francisco 49ers/strong>

The 2024 Noah Fant breakout is beginning to look less and less likely to occur through five games of the season. 2.8 receptions and 27 yards per outing are not exactly paying the bills. These figures amount to just 4.1 Half PPR points per game, "good" for TE27 in points per game.

The 49ers rank 12th in aFPA to tight ends this season, but short of a disaster befalling the three wide receivers ahead of him in the target totem pole it's almost impossible to imagine a scenario where Fant emerges as one of the stars at the tight end position in Week 6. He's a very low-floor, low-end TE2 this week.

Week 4 at Detroit Lions

Noah Fant enjoyed his best game of the season against the Dolphins in Week 3. The veteran tight end caught all six of his targets for 60 yards, giving him a princely 9.0 Half PPR points and a TE6 finish for the week.

The Lions have been more generous towards wide receivers than tight ends this season, so while it is good that Fant is coming into the game with a little momentum, Fant managers should temper their expectations until we start to see him string together productive games. He projects to be a low-end TE2 for this one.
