Daniels had two catches on five targets for nine yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Vikings.
EDGE Analysis
With wideouts Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders dominating the targets, it's unlikely that Daniels becomes an upper-tier fantasy option like Julius Thomas was the past two seasons, but he has scored a touchdown in back-to-back weeks. Additionally, he'll next face off against a Raiders defense that has been badly exposed by opposing tight ends this season.

Daniels caught five passes for 28 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Sunday's 24-12 win over the Lions.
EDGE Analysis
Daniels made an excellent grab from 11 yards out to give the Broncos a 12-point lead in the final three minutes. He didn't do much outside of the game-clinching touchdown, but his nine targets were tied for second best on the team, and he played 60 snaps to Virgil Green's 15, according to Pro Football Focus. Daniels clearly isn't going to put up lofty yardage totals, but as the top tight end in Denver's offense, he could be a semi-regular visitor to the end zone.

Daniels caught three passes for 19 yards on five targets in Thursday's 31-24 win over the Chiefs.
EDGE Analysis
Virgil Green caught two passes for 12 yards and a touchdown on three targets, but Daniels had a 67-28 advantage in snaps, according to Nathan Jahnke of Pro Football Focus. Neither tight end looks like an appealing option through two games, but Daniels is at least ahead of Green.

Daniels had two catches on two targets for five yards Sunday against the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Daniels failed to make an impact in the passing game like tight end Julius Thomas has in the past two seasons with Peyton Manning under center, as he was needed more as a blocker because the offensive line struggled to keep Manning on his feet. If the line continues to allow four sacks per game, like they did Sunday, Daniels will have few route-running opportunities.

Daniels reached an agreement with the Broncos on Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. As expected, Daniels will follow Gary Kubiak to Denver, after the duo spent one successful year in Baltimore. The Broncos also re-signed Virgil Green, who will likely focus more on blocking while Daniels serves as the team's primary receiving tight end. While it would be unwise to expect anything close to the numbers Julius Thomas provided, Daniels has a decent chance to improve on the 48-527-4 receiving line he put up in 2014.

Daniels will visit with the Broncos, the Denver Post reports. This is one of the least surprising visits of free agency, as the 32-year-old Daniels has spent his entire career playing in Gary Kubiak's offense. With Julius Thomas set to join the Jaguars, Denver has an obvious need at tight end. Daniels is an excellent bet to either join the Broncos or re-sign with the Ravens.

Daniels had four catches for 41 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 35-31 playoff loss to the Patriots. Daniels was targeted a team-high 11 times, though it took a while for Joe Flacco to connect with him, missing on the first four targets. Eventually they got going, and his 11-yard grab at the end of the second quarter was a thing of beauty, snagged between three defenders. Daniels is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Daniels caught four passes for 70 yards in Saturday's playoff victory over the Steelers. Daniels finished second on the team in receiving yardage and tied the season-best 70 yards he put up against the Colts in Week 5. His next game will come against a Patriots team that gave up just two tight ends to opposing tight ends over its final seven games of the regular season.

Daniels caught 1-of-6 targets for seven yards in Sunday's 25-13 loss to the Texans. Daniels had a disappointing game against his former team as the entire Baltimore offense struggled. While he's still the third or fourth option in the passing game, Daniels has two or fewer catches in five of the last six weeks. He'll look to bounce back in Week 17 against the Browns.

Daniels caught 4-of-9 targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-12 win over the Jaguars. Daniels found the end zone for the first time since Week 7 while posting his second-best yardage total of the season. He's done a nice job of replacing Dennis Pitta from the Ravens' standpoint, but Daniels' receiving production falls quite a bit short of what could be expected from a healthy Pitta.
