Our 2026 Preseason Outlook

Granson's trajectory has been steadily shrinking, and the numbers leave little to argue with. After a 50-target, 299-route season in 2023 that posted a respectable 0.229 EPA per play and 48% success rate, his usage collapsed: 31 targets on a 44.6% route share in 2024, then a near-invisible 2025 with Philadelphia. That final season produced just seven catches for 40 yards across 12 games, a 23.4% snap rate, a 1.9% target share, and negative efficiency at minus-0.207 EPA per play. The volume simply isn't there anymore.

He lands in Tennessee on a one-year deal as a depth piece in the tight end room, not a starter. There are no 2026 projections to lean on, and dynasty value sits in the TE90s with essentially zero roster presence. Unless an injury or scheme shift hands him real route volume, he stays off the radar. Pure deep-league monitor at best.
