2024 Fantasy Outlook
Durham logged a modest 125 snaps from scrimmage as a rookie in 2023 and generated a modest 5-58 line on just seven targets. However, new coordinator Liam Coen's offensive system, a derivative of Sean McVay's successful Rams scheme, is expected to utilize a heavy dose of two-tight-end sets that could capitalize on the pass-catching acumen Durham demonstrated during his college days at Purdue.

May have bigger role Sunday
Durham could have an expanded role Sunday in Dallas with Cade Otton (knee) listed as doubtful for the contest, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
More snaps for Durham may not result in an expanded role in the passing game, as he's earned just two targets in 13 games this season. Position mates Ko Kieft and Devin Culp, a rookie seventh-round pick, haven't been targeted at all, though, so Durham at least should be an option for QB Baker Mayfield considering the workload he likely will be taking on. In 26 appearances as a pro to date, Durham has a 7-92-0 line on nine targets, which is good for a 77.8 percent catch rate and 10.2 YPT.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Durham is a talented pass-catching asset at the tight end position that could form quite the dual threat in tandem with Cade Otton over time. A 2023 fifth-round pick, Durham isn't without size for blocking at 6-6, 253 pounds, either, and his 101 receptions over his last two seasons at Purdue combined with an effective red-zone presence (21 touchdowns in 36 games) could help him carve out a complementary role behind Otton as a rookie.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could help fill in for Otton
Offensive coordinator Liam Cohen believes Durham can help fill in for Cade Otton in Week 16 against the Cowboys if Otton's unable to play due to a knee injury, per Greg Auman of Fox Sports.
ANALYSIS
Cohen mentioned Durham, Ko Kieft and Devin Culp as players that could see more responsibility if Otton sits. Otton has been sidelined at practice both Wednesday and Thursday. Durham has just two catches all season, but those are the only two catches by a Tampa Bay tight end other than Otton, who has 59 receptions.
