Trautman secured two of three targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-7 win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran tight end played 69 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps in the contest, yet he continued to be just minimally involved in Denver's scheme. Trautman's touchdown came on a 10-yard pass late in the fourth quarter, putting the game out of reach for Los Angeles. The score was Trautman's third of the 2023 campaign, marking a career-high in touchdowns for a season. With that said, the 26-year-old remains untrustworthy for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Lions.

Trautman secured one of his two targets for six yards in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman recorded just one catch for the second straight week, playing a minimal role in the Broncos' offense again. Despite operating as Denver's No. 1 tight end, the veteran isn't a significant part of the Broncos' offensive game plan each week. Trautman should remain out of fantasy lineups heading into a Week 14 matchup with the Chargers.

Trautman caught his lone target for an eight-yard touchdown in Sunday's 29-12 win over the Browns.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman was a non-factor for much of the contest until he found the end zone in the fourth quarter with an impressive catch, a play that was initially ruled an incomplete pass before coach Sean Payton challenged the ruling. The veteran tight end has had a quiet 2023 campaign as the Denver's No. 1 tight end, as his touchdown was only his second of the season. Trautman is averaging just 1.5 catches and 11.4 receiving yards per game, but with teammate Greg Dulcich (hamstring) still on injured reserve, he should maintain his role as the Broncos' starter. In such a limited role, the 26-year-old is not a reliable fantasy option in a Week 13 matchup with the Texans.

Trautman secured both of his targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 21-20 win over the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman put together another disappointing performance Sunday, although his 33 receiving yard total was his second-highest of the season. Despite playing in all 10 of the Broncos' games, the veteran tight end has amassed just 15 catches for 117 yards and a touchdown this season. Trautman is not a major part of Denver's offensive game plan and likely won't make for a reliable fantasy option in a Week 12 matchup with the stingy Browns defense.

Trautman secured both of his targets for 15 yards in Monday's 24-22 win over the Bills.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman continued his streak of underwhelming performances Monday, despite leading the way in snaps among Denver tight ends. Through nine games, Trautman has totaled just 13 catches for 84 yards and a touchdown.

Trautman failed to record a single target in Sunday's 24-9 win over Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman played 82 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps in the contest, yet he was a complete non-factor in the passing attack. Sunday marked the first time the veteran was held without a target in the 2023 campaign. The veteran tight end's ascent to the No. 1 job hasn't resulted in increased production, as Trautman has totaled just 11 catches for 69 yards and a touchdown through eight games. The 26-year-old will continue to be an unreliable fantasy contributor after the Broncos' Week 9 bye, and eventually Greg Dulcich (hamstring) could get healthy and push him aside.

Trautman caught one of his two targets for five yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran played the majority of tight end snaps Sunday, as he remains the Broncos' No. 1 option with Greg Dulcich (hamstring) back on injured reserve. Trautman caught just one pass on two targets for the second straight week, and his limited involvement in Denver's passing attack make him an unreliable option for fantasy purposes. The 26-year-old will look to get more involved when the Broncos host Kansas City in Week 8.

Trautman caught one of his targets for four yards in Thursday's 19-8 loss to the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman continued to operate as the Broncos' No. 1 tight end Thursday, playing 69 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Greg Dulcich (hamstring) returned to action for the contest, but after just 11 snaps, he aggravated the hamstring injury that caused him to miss the past four weeks on injured reserve. Despite being Denver's top choice at tight end, Trautman has failed to maintain consistent fantasy relevance. The 26-year-old will likely continue to see the most playing time at the position going forward, especially if Dulcich is forced to miss time again. With that said, Trautman doesn't inspire much confidence as a fantasy option. The Broncos will host the Packers in Week 7.

Trautman caught three of his four targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-21 loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Trautman's touchdown Sunday was his first of the season, and his four receptions were his first since Week 1 after failing to record a catch over Denver's past three games. The veteran tight end has been operating as the Broncos' unquestioned No. 1 tight end with teammate Greg Dulcich (hamstring) on injured reserve, who is eligible to return in Week 6. Trautman's lack of involvement as a pass catcher could open up a path for Dulcich to be integrated more consistently into Denver's passing attack when he is fully healthy. With that said, the 26-year-old will look to build upon Sunday's solid performance when the Broncos visit the Chiefs in Week 6.

Trautman failed to secure his only target in Sunday's 31-28 win over the Bears.
EDGE Analysis
Continuing to operate as the Broncos' No. 1 tight end, Trautman played 42 of Denver's 48 offensive snaps Sunday. Despite his high snap share, the veteran was a complete non-factor as a receiver in the contest. Trautman has now been held without a catch for three consecutive weeks, an ominous sign with Greg Dulcich (hamstring) eligible to return from injured reserve in Week 6.
