Brenton Strange - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Two grabs in another blowout win Strange caught both of his targets for 22 yards in Thursday night's 33-10 win over the Ravens.

Impact The Jaguars keep blowing teams out and aren't being pushed on offense, which is keeping Trevor Lawrence's pass volume low. Strange is still making the most of his few opportunities, totaling four grabs for 77 yards on four targets over the last two weeks, games in which the Jaguars have combined to outscore their opponents 75-17. Strange is a TE1 for fantasy and gets a date with the Titans in nine days.

Two snags in blowout victory Strange caught both of his targets for 55 yards during Sunday's 42-7 win over Indianapolis.

Impact Strange was able to make it seven games in a row with multiple catches to open the 2026 campaign. The tight end tied running back Bhayshul Tuten for the team lead in receiving yards, exceeding 50 yards for the third time in the last four games. Strange has now reeled in 28 of 35 targets for 334 yards and a touchdown over seven contests this season.

Five catches in loss Strange caught five of seven targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Texans.

Impact Strange finished tied for the team lead in catches with wide receiver Jakobi Meyers while his seven targets were third behind Meyers (10) and Parker Washington (11). The tight end has now reeled in at least five passes in three straight contests, compiling 207 receiving yards on 19 catches in those games. The Jaguars are off in Week 7, so his next chance to continue his momentum will come Nov. 1 against the Colts.

Another strong showing in Week 5 Strange caught seven of eight targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Eagles.

Impact After breaking out for a 7-95-0 line last week, Strange tied that season high in catches, although for less yardage. The tight end is re-establishing himself as Trevor Lawrence's preferred safety valve, which should assure him a solid floor for volume. Strange will take a 21-235-1 line on 26 targets through five games into a Week 6 clash with the Texans.

Pops off for 95 yards in win Strange caught seven of eight targets for 95 yards in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Bengals.

Impact Cincinnati annually plays bad defense against opposing tight ends, and Strange was able to take advantage of the clean matchup by leading the team in targets, catches and receiving yards Sunday. An every-down tight end in Jacksonville's potent offense, he's a weekly fringe TE1/2 headed into next Sunday's game against the Eagles. On the season, Strange has 14 catches for 167 yards and one touchdown on 18 targets.

Season-high five targets vs. New England Strange caught three of five targets for 32 yards during the Jaguars' 35-6 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

Impact Most of Strange's production came on a 23-yard catch midway through the second quarter, which put the Jaguars just outside the red zone and helped lead to a 10-yard touchdown pass from Trevor Lawrence to Jakobi Meyers five plays later. Strange finished Sunday's game tied for the second-most targets and catches and third in receiving yards behind Meyers (64) and Parker Washington (32). Strange is off to a somewhat slow start to the 2026 season, though he's competing against Meyers, Washington and Brian Thomas for targets in the passing game. Strange will take a 7-72-1 receiving line (on 10 targets) into a Week 4 road clash against the Bengals.

Just two targets in Week 2 loss Strange caught both of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Broncos.

Impact Parker Washington (12 targets) and Brian Thomas (eight) saw a combined 20 targets on Trevor Lawrence's 29 pass attempts in this one, leaving very little opportunity for the rest of the Jaguars' pass catchers. Strange still ran 25 routes on 31 dropbacks, proving he's an every-down tight end in one of the league's premier offenses. He'll be a touchdown-dependent TE1/2 next Sunday against the Patriots.

Boosts line with TD in Week 1 Strange caught two of three targets for 23 yards and a touchdown Sunday in a 34-10 victory versus Cleveland.

Impact Strange had a relatively quiet day in terms of targets and yardage, but he finished with a fine fantasy total on the strength of a 14-yard connection with Trevor Lawrence in the second quarter. Strange seems to have carried over the red-zone chemistry with Lawrence that developed late last year, when all three of his scores came over the Jaguars' final six regular-season games. The 2023 second-round draft pick logged a career-best 540 receiving yards last season and is positioned to be Jacksonville's top tight end again in 2026.

In line to start Week 1 Strange is the Jaguars' projected Week 1 starter at tight end following the NFL's cut-down day, John Oehser of the team's official site reports.

Impact Strange inked a three-year extension with Jacksonville back in June, and in the wake of roster cuts, rookie second-round pick Nate Boerkircher, rookie fifth-rounder Tanner Koziol and fifth-year pro Quintin Morris are the other TEs on the roster. As a result, Strange is the likeliest member of the group, barring health concerns, to end the campaign as the leader in offensive snaps. He's also coming off a 2025 season in which he posted a 46-540-3 line on 60 targets across 12 regular-season games.

Idle for second preseason game Strange did not play in the Jaguars' 34-17 preseason loss to the Panthers on Friday.

Impact Both Strange and rookie second-rounder Nate Boerkircher observed Friday's exhibition contest in street clothes, with Tanner Koziol, Quintin Morris, Hunter Long and Patrick Herbert each logging at least 13 offensive snaps. Strange is the top tight end on the depth chart, evidenced by the three-year, $48 million extension he signed with the Jaguars in June. He's coming off a strong 2025 campaign in which he caught 46 passes (on 60 targets) for 540 yards and three touchdowns across 12 regular-season games. Strange figures to play a key role in the Jaguars' passing attack this season alongside wide receivers Brian Thomas, Parker Washington (undisclosed) and Jakobi Meyers (hand).
