Rest-of-Season Outlook and Availability
Outlook
Now in Baltimore, he profiles purely as an in-line blocker behind a featured starter, which only narrows an already empty passing-game footprint. With a TE78 valuation and effectively zero roster relevance, there is no realistic path to weekly points. He stays off fantasy radars in every format and should be left on the wire outside of deep two-TE dynasty rosters needing snaps. Next on the depth chart after him: Matt Hibner. Full outlook

Durham Smythe Rest-of-Season Outlook
depth TE for deep leagues only
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
He finished TE97 last season at 0.4 points per game.
Our Take After Week 4
Through 3 games he's TE86 at 0.5 PPR points per game, against 0.4 over 16 games last season (TE97). The role is producing the same fantasy output two years running.
Last season he ranked 72nd of 81 in route participation (16.9%), 78th of 82 in target share (1.1%) and 78th of 82 in efficiency (0.25 yards per route run). Target share is the soft spot. Lamar Jackson is his quarterback.
He's TE2 on the depth chart, so his value depends on the players ahead of him.
The next favorable matchups are the Browns in Week 6 (10th against TEs) and the Bengals in Week 7 (5th against TEs).
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 16, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
Smythe's 2025 line tells the whole story: 7 games, a 25.4% snap share, and just 6 targets on 101 routes for a 1.1% target share and 0.059 targets per route run. He turned that into 4 catches, 25 yards, no scores, and a microscopic 2.5 fantasy points, while his -0.042 EPA per play and 33.3% success rate confirmed there was no efficiency hiding underneath the volume. That is a steep slide from the 28th-ranked TE finish he posted back in 2023.
Now in Baltimore, he profiles purely as an in-line blocker behind a featured starter, which only narrows an already empty passing-game footprint. With a TE78 valuation and effectively zero roster relevance, there is no realistic path to weekly points. He stays off fantasy radars in every format and should be left on the wire outside of deep two-TE dynasty rosters needing snaps.
