This ranking considers tight ends that started at least 11 games in 2021. Fantasy points were derived using 1 point per 10 yards rushed or received, six-point touchdowns rushed and one point receptions. Given that the position supplies only around ten players of any fantasy note, there aren’t a lot of surprises here.

The best positive here is that Darren Waller’s down season still provided over ten points in two-thirds of his matchups. Still, this is a position that offers precious few difference-makers, and Kyle Pitts rookie season didn’t look near as strong only No. 13 in consistency. He ended the year on a stronger note which at least gives promise to 2022, even if he lost his quarterback.
