Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught six balls for 91 yards on 9 targets in Sunday's win over the Titans. He ranked second on the team in all three categories while matching his season high in targets and setting a new top mark in receiving yards. Fanning had totaled just 5 receptions over the previous three games.
2026 Fantasy Football Impact: Don't Call it a Rebound Yet
Fannin sits sixth among TEs in PPR points heading into the Monday night game. It'll likely remain his second-highest fantasy finish so far this season, trailing only the 7-51-2 receiving line of Week 3 against Carolina.
Still, Fannin has caught three passes or fewer in four of seven contests and didn't exceed 54 yards in a game before Sunday's contest.
He remains in a position of likely high variability within a low-floor, low-ceiling offense.
Sunday included a season-high 36 pass attempts for Deshaun Watson and just his second time reaching 240 passing yards this season. (He threw for a season-high 308.)
Next comes a Pittsburgh matchup that afforded Fannin a 3-27-1 receiving line in Week 4. The Steelers have proved slightly negative for TE scoring overall by our adjusted fantasy points allowed.
Week 9 holds a more positive matchup with the Saints (12th in adjusted fantasy points allowed) before a bad spot against Houston (23rd).
