2024 Season Outlooks

Schultz was a solid contributor with the new-look Texans in 2023 and he averaged the 10th-most Fantasy points per game (11th-most in PPR leagues). His outlook changed for the worse in 2024 after the team traded for Stefon Diggs and used a draft pick on TE Cade Stover. However, Schultz is likely to maintain the lead role from a snap share percentage and could find his way into the end zone a half dozen times (he scored five TDs in 2023). He's a back-end TE1 with a solid floor, but if you're looking for upside, there are other TE options to consider in his ADP range on Draft Day.

The Texans retained Schultz with a multi-year deal in March, confirming his importance to a rising offensive roster. A steady part of the Texans' offense throughout his debut season with the team, Schultz posted remarkably similar production to his final campaign with the Cowboys. A reliable baseline for production has been established for Schultz that includes a target and yardage pattern good for top 12 or so at the position in most seasons. With a strong group of receivers to compete with, Schultz has a limited ceiling, but he still qualifies as a fringe TE1 target.
