Njoku reconnects with Flacco, potentially benefiting from increased target share and red-zone looks. His role could anchor the Browns’ tight-end production if Flacco sustains starter duties and builds on the veteran-QB rapport.

Njoku finished as a TE1 in 2024 but faced efficiency questions and Cleveland drafted Harold Fannin Jr. The Browns offense is unsettled with a squad of QBs and multiple pass weapons. Njoku’s volume could be squeezed by improving competition, making him a fade in shallow TE landscapes and moderate-risk in standard leagues.

Njoku’s red-zone footprint and target share were elite in 2023’s Flacco stretch, delivering top-end fantasy weeks; with Flacco’s volume and a stabilized Browns offense, Njoku’s upside remains robust as a target engine.

Njoku provides a reliable mid-range TE floor in a Browns offense that features middle-field targets. He stabilizes the TE slot, offering steady volume and a reasonable weekly floor, with upside in pass-heavy scripts and red-zone looks if the offense heats up.

Njoku sits among solid late-round TE targets with a tangible floor thanks to volume in the Browns’ passing game and red-zone opportunities. His involvement is enough to anchor a tight end position, with upside if the offense leans on the pass more consistently.
