Trey McBride Faces Philadelphia As A TE1

11 months ago

As we gear up for the pivotal Week 17 of the fantasy season, Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride emerges as a must-start option against the Philadelphia Eagles. Despite a quieter showing in the recent loss to the Bears, McBride has been on fire since quarterback Kyler Murray's return. Over the last five contests, he boasts an impressive 38-425-1 line on 45 targets, cementing his role as a crucial target in the Cardinals' passing game. With Murray leading the charge, McBride has been nothing short of exceptional, leading all tight ends with a remarkable 25.6% target share. He also ranks second in yards per route run (YPRR) at 2.36, first in first-read share (31.2%), and first in fantasy points per game at 15.9. Facing an Eagles defense that has allowed the eighth-highest catch rate (75.3 percent) to opposing tight ends, McBride is poised for a resounding rebound in Week 17. Fantasy managers heading into championship week are strongly advised to start McBride, as he remains a set-it-and-forget-it TE1.
