"..."	"Selected in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Dolphins, Thompson spent the past three seasons with Miami as part of the team's backup situation behind Tua Tagovailoa. Thompson appeared in 10 regular-season contests in that time and even started Miami's wild-card playoff game against the Bills as a rookie. Thompson, however, looked overwhelmed when forced into action, completing 99 of 183 passes (54.1 percent) for 941 yards (5.14 yards per attempt), two touchdowns and five interceptions across those 11 contests, while absorbing 16 sacks. He'll compete for a backup gig in Pittsburgh this upcoming offseason."

Trends

"Following two solid but unspectacular seasons to begin his NFL career, Otton made a big leap in 2024, finishing in the top 15 among TEs in snaps, routes, targets, receptions, yards, TDs and fantasy points. Injuries around him were a factor, however, as he handled a solid 16% target share (4.8 per game) but was limited to a 29-307-1 receiving line (6.3 fantasy PPG and no games over 11.2) in 10 games with Mike Evans also in the lineup. Then, during Weeks 7-10 with Evans injured (Chris Godwin also missed most of this action), Otton handled a 25% target share (9.5 per game, 8-plus in all four) and posted a 30-293-3 receiving line (19.3 PPG with 18-plus three times). With Tampa Bay's loaded WR room and heavy reliance on its RBs, Otton figures to head back to low-ceiling TE2 production."

"Otton comfortably set the pace for the Buccaneers in receptions, receiving yards and targets, and the middle figure was also a new season high. The fourth-year pro delivered multiple key catches, including an 18-yard TD grab to open the scoring in the first quarter, as well as a 20-yard reception just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter that helped Tampa Bay burn some precious time while nursing a two-point lead. Otton's touchdown was his first of the season, and he finished the 2025 regular-season campaign with a career-high-tying 59 receptions and the second-highest receiving yardage total of his four seasons (572)."
