Ko Kieft Rest-of-Season Outlook
depth TE on the sideline for now
Out, elbow.
TE95 through Week 4 · 0.0 PPG
Preseason Projection vs. Reality
He finished TE130 last season at 0.0 points per game.
Our Take After Week 4
Through 2 games he's TE95 at 0.0 PPR points per game, against 0.0 over 3 games last season (TE130). The role is producing the same fantasy output two years running.
Last season he ranked 80th of 82 in target share (0.9%) and 82nd of 82 in efficiency (0.03 yards per route run). Efficiency is the soft spot. Baker Mayfield is his quarterback.
He's out, elbow. Until he's back, his value is a bench spot at most, and Bauer Sharp takes his snaps.
The next favorable matchup is the Cowboys in Week 5 (8th against TEs).
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 17, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
Kieft's profile is that of a pure in-line blocker, and the numbers leave no ambiguity. Across 10 games he ran 67 routes on a 19.7% snap rate yet drew only five targets, a 0.9% target share and a 0.022 WOPR that sit at the very bottom of the position. He caught one of those looks for two yards, and his -0.267 EPA per play with a 20% success rate confirms the passing game simply does not run through him. The lone redeeming note: two red-zone targets, one inside the 10, and a touchdown that salvaged 6.2 fantasy points.
Nothing about the 2026 setup changes the math. He returns as roster depth behind Tampa's established tight ends, carries no meaningful draft or ADP value, and a brutal positional schedule offers no streaming hook. He is a real-football contributor whose value lives in run blocking, not box scores. Leave him on the wire in every format until usage forces a second look.

Ko Kieft Fantasy Outlook FAQ
What is Ko Kieft's fantasy outlook for the rest of the 2026 season?
Ko Kieft projects as a depth TE on the sideline for now for the rest of the 2026 season: a bench stash in TE-premium leagues and waiver-wire material in 12-team and 10-team leagues. His efficiency (0.03 yards per route run, 82nd of 82 TEs in 2023) holds him back. See his live rank in Redraft Command.
What is Ko Kieft's rest-of-season fantasy ranking?
Ko Kieft is the TE95 in PPR points per game through Week 4. That puts him in depth TE territory, waiver-wire material in 12-team leagues.

Ko Kieft is TE3 on the depth chart, so a bigger role needs an injury or a change ahead of him.
What is Ko Kieft's fantasy football upside?
Ko Kieft's upside: his ceiling this season is 0.0 PPR points (Week 1, TE80) and the Cowboys in Week 5 is a top-10 matchup for TEs.
What could hurt Ko Kieft's fantasy value?

How difficult is Ko Kieft's remaining fantasy schedule?
About average: of his next seven games, 2 come against a top-10 matchup for TEs and 2 against one of the stingiest defenses, by PPR points allowed to the position.
