2024 Fantasy Outlook
Engram led all tight ends in both targets (143) and catches (114) last year, which helped him to a career high for receiving yards (963) in addition to those two aforementioned categories. The 6-foot-3, 240-pound tight end is one of the fastest players at his position and excels at getting open on short routes, but he's never been much of a downfield or red-zone threat like many of the league's larger tight ends. He hasn't scored more than four touchdowns in a season since he had six as a rookie in 2017, and his 10 red-zone targets last year were tied for 14th among tight ends. On a more positive note, the butter fingers that plagued Engram in New York haven’t followed him to Jacksonville, where he's dropped only eight of 241 targets through two years (though he fumbled three times last season). The Jaguars made big changes to their receiving corps in the offseason, but it's hard to say how that affects Engram, if at all, with Gabe Davis and rookie Brian Thomas replacing Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones. A healthier year from WR Christian Kirk might have more impact on Engram's volume given that both compete for short targets, whereas Davis and Thomas figure to run a lot of deep routes. Engram probably won't score many touchdowns or match last year's volume, but he's still a good bet to rank among the TE leaders in catches and targets, making him a solid starter for PPR formats.

Gets surgery on shoulder
Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson said Engram underwent surgery Monday to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Engram was ruled out for the Jaguars' final four games of the season when he was placed on injured reserve Saturday, though it wasn't immediately known if he would get surgery to address the labrum tear. With the procedure now confirmed, Engram will likely be shut down from activity for a few weeks before beginning a rehab program. Pederson said he expects Engram to be a full participant when the Jaguars begin their offseason program in the spring, when the 30-year-old tight end will be heading into the final season of the three-year, $41.25 million extension he signed in July 2023. After turning in a career-best 114-catch, 963-yard season in 2023, Engram took a big step back statistically in 2024, but he was still a usable fantasy starter in PPR formats with a 47-365-1 receiving line on 64 targets over nine appearances.

After excelling on a one-year deal last season, Engram will return to Jacksonville on a three-year, $42 million contract. The Giants' 2017 first-round pick mostly struggled through five seasons in New York, including 17 drops his final two years. Jacksonville has been a better fit, as Engram cut his drop total to five last year while setting career highs in catches (73) and receiving yards (766). With a 4.42 wheels in a 6-foot-3, 240-pound frame, Engram is a TE/WR hybrid who fits comfortably in a Jaguars offense predicated on spread formations and speed. While Engram tied for fourth among tight ends with 98 targets in 2022, he fell outside the top 20 at the position with only nine red-zone targets, and he has yet to top four touchdowns since scoring six on a career-high 115 targets as a rookie in 2017. Engram now figures to be the third or fourth option in Jacksonville's passing game, competing for targets with WRs Christian Kirk, Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones.

Cut candidate?
Engram could be a cut candidate this offseason if the Jaguars change their front office and coaching staff, Mike DiRocco of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Engram, sidelined by a shoulder injury, will be entering the final year of his current contract in Jacksonville in 2025. His $14.8 million salary for 2025 becomes fully guaranteed on the fifth day of the new league year, though the team would gain only $6.3 million in cap space. That sets up the Jaguars' hypothetical new leadership with an interesting decision immediately after taking over.
