AI outlook

Camp TE1 with Kittle (Achilles) on PUP; likely reverts to TE2 once Kittle is cleared, targeted for Week 1. Season-long value stays low in the base case but has real early-season ceiling if Kittle's return slips. TD rate (5/46 targets in 2025) likely regresses.

Strengths & concerns
Pros / cons +

Pros

  • New 2yr/$8M deal signals org confidence and roster security
  • Proven red-zone/scoring role in 2025 (5 TD/46 targets) when given snaps
  • Direct beneficiary if Kittle Achilles recovery slips past Week 1

Cons

  • Kittle is targeting Week 1 per GM John Lynch -- window may be very short
  • Modest target share season-wide even during 2025 Kittle absence (46 targets/17 games)
  • 5 TD on 46 targets is TD-rate over-performance likely to regress
  • No standalone value once Kittle is active
Why our rank differs from ADP
disagree lower

His value is a short Kittle-PUP window -- near zero once Kittle returns.

Full breakdown +

We rank Tonges 284th (PPR) vs a consensus ADP of 188. Kittle is targeting Week 1, Tonges managed just 46 targets across 17 games even during Kittle's 2025 absences, and 5 TDs on that volume is due to regress. The camp-TE1 label is a timing artifact.
