The top 10 fantasy TE seasons of 2024
| Rank | Player | Team | Games | Points | Points per game | Best week | | 1 | Brock Bowers | Las Vegas Raiders | 17 | 263 | 15 | 31 | | 2 | Trey McBride | Arizona Cardinals | 17 | 244 | 14 | 30 | | 3 | George Kittle | San Francisco 49ers | 17 | 237 | 14 | 25 | | 4 | Jonnu Smith | Miami Dolphins | 17 | 222 | 13 | 28 | | 5 | Travis Kelce | Kansas City Chiefs | 17 | 195 | 11 | 25 | | 6 | Mark Andrews | Baltimore Ravens | 17 | 189 | 11 | 20 | | 7 | Sam LaPorta | Detroit Lions | 17 | 175 | 10 | 18 | | 8 | Zach Ertz | Washington Commanders | 17 | 173 | 10 | 25 | | 9 | Pat Freiermuth | Pittsburgh Steelers | 17 | 170 | 10 | 22 | | 10 | Tucker Kraft | Green Bay Packers | 17 | 161 | 9 | 25 |
Where the 2024 tight end field dropped off
The 2024 board shows a steep step after fourth place. Jonnu Smith of the Miami Dolphins posted 222 points at 13 per game, and the next name, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs, sat at 195. That break separates a four-man elite tier from a chase group where Travis Kelce, Mark Andrews of the Baltimore Ravens, Sam LaPorta of the Detroit Lions, Zach Ertz of the Washington Commanders, and Pat Freiermuth of the Pittsburgh Steelers all landed between 195 and 170 points. Tucker Kraft of the Green Bay Packers closed the top ten at 161 with 9 per game, the only name in the ten below ten points per game.
What the best-week column says about 2024 tight ends
The best-week column splits the ten into two camps. Brock Bowers (31), Trey McBride (30), and Jonnu Smith (28) each cleared a week that no one else in the group reached, while George Kittle, Travis Kelce, Zach Ertz, and Tucker Kraft each peaked at 25. Mark Andrews topped out at 20 and Sam LaPorta at 18, the lowest peak in the top ten, while Pat Freiermuth hit 22. The players with the biggest single weeks also finished in the top four, which tells you the 2024 position leaders won on peak scoring as much as steady output.
Did the per-game column disagree with the totals?
Only in small ways. Brock Bowers held first in both columns at 15 per game, and Tucker Kraft held tenth in both at 9. The middle compressed hard: George Kittle, at 14 per game, matched Trey McBride in that column even though McBride finished ahead on total points, and the group from Travis Kelce through Pat Freiermuth bunched at 11 or 10 per game. When the per-game view and the total view tell nearly the same story, the ranking is built on volume of scoring rather than a few outlier weeks carrying a lower per-game player up the board.
