BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-End TE1/High-End TE2
ANALYSIS: A start this week across all leagues is tight end Dalton Schultz of the Houston Texans. With Stefon Diggs out for the season (ACL) and Nico Collins still sidelined, the Texans are short on receiving options.
Although Schultz will face the New York Jets' tough defense (allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends), he is positioned to be a primary target for quarterback C.J. Stroud.
Happy National Tight Ends Day 😄

Despite the short week and Thursday night matchup, Schultz's role should be elevated due to the Texans' depleted receiving corps.
In Week 8, Schultz recorded a season-high 52 yards on four catches from six targets in the Texans' win over the Indianapolis Colts, showcasing his reliability.
For fantasy managers, his value is particularly strong in PPR formats, and he can be confidently deployed as a high-end TE2 or low-end TE1 for Week 9. Expect Schultz to see a steady target share as Stroud leans on him in a TNF matchup.
