Player Outlook
Hooper will compete with rookie top-35 pick Michael Mayer and veteran O.J. Howard for snaps and targets in Las Vegas. Although projected starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo has generated production out of the tight end position throughout his career, Hooper hasn't given much reason for optimism that he can be a Fantasy asset. Hooper finished inside the top 12 at TE just twice in 2022 and one of those games featured two short touchdowns - his only two of the season. Hooper is best left undrafted.

  • Raiders' Austin Hooper: Not targeted Sunday

    Hooper was not targeted in Sunday's 23-18 loss to the Steelers. Hooper's 55 offensive snaps were a season high through the first three weeks, but he failed to earn a single target, and fellow tight end Micheal Mayer was on the receiving end of a two-point conversion. If quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) continues to prioritize Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers, Hooper could be a tough click in most formats.

  • Raiders' Austin Hooper: Two receptions in loss

    Hooper caught two passes on as many targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Bills. Hooper's only receptions came on back-to-back plays on the Raiders' opening drive of the second half, but fellow tight end Michael Mayer was held to just one catch for two yards on 16 offensive snaps throughout this contest. The duo figures to continue splitting duties against the Steelers in Week 3, but quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo could look their way more often if Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers fail to clear the league's concussion protocol.

  • Raiders' Austin Hooper: Gains 20 yards in win

    Hooper caught his lone target for 20 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Broncos. Hooper got the start and caught the only target intended for a tight end in his debut with Las Vegas. Fellow newcomer Jimmy Garoppolo did not utilize the tight end position like he did with George Kittle during his time in San Francisco, opting to target his outside options in the narrow victory. Early second-round pick Michael Mayer wasn't used on offense, confirming that Hooper sits atop the depth chart. The veteran tight end is worth consideration in deeper formats heading into a matchup against the Bills on Sunday.

  • Raiders' Austin Hooper: Facing competition for top role

    Hooper could slide to No. 2 on the depth chart after the Raiders selected fellow tight end Michael Mayer with the 35th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Vic Tafur of TheAthletic.com reports. Hooper originally faced little competition for the top job at tight end when he signed with Las Vegas in March after the team dealt Darren Waller to the Giants, but Mayer projects to vulture first-team reps sooner rather than later. The rookie's introduction limits the ceiling on Hooper's fantasy outlook, and 2017 first rounder O.J. Howard could factor into the TE mix as well.

  • Raiders' Austin Hooper: Headed to Las Vegas

    Hooper agreed Wednesday with the Raiders on a one-year, $2.75 million deal, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. After a two-year stint in Cleveland, Hooper joined the Titans for the 2022 campaign and appeared in all 17 games for the club, recording 41 catches for 444 yards and two touchdowns on 60 targets. In his new locale, Hooper is slated to lead a tight-end corps in transition. He'll be joined in Las Vegas by fellow free-agent addition O.J. Howard, while the Raiders dealt Darren Waller to the Giants last week and have not yet looked to re-sign free agent Foster Moreau. Given his team context, Hooper has a chance to earn enough targets from quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo in 2023 to merit attention in deeper fantasy formats.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Four catches in Week 18

    Hooper recorded four catches on four targets for 38 yards in Saturday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars. Hooper tied for the third-most targets on the team and was relatively efficient with his opportunities, finishing with his highest catch and yardage totals since Week 14. While his numbers rebounded compared to his 2021 campaign with the Browns, Hooper was still in a timeshare with other tight ends on the Tennessee roster, including Chigoziem Okonkwo and Geoff Swaim. Hooper will hit free agency this offseason, and even if he returns to Tennessee, Okonkwo will likely step into a more significant role in 2023 to Hooper's detriment.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Six yards on six targets

    Hooper recorded one catch on six targets for six yards in Thursday's 27-13 loss to the Cowboys. Several of the Titans' pass catchers saw improved efficiency with Joshua Dobbs under center rather than Malik Willis. However, the opposite was true for Hooper, as he tallied his lowest yardage total since Week 8 despite seeing his second-highest target total of the season. Prior to Thursday's game, Hooper had managed multiple receptions in eight consecutive contests.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Two catches in loss

    Hooper recorded two receptions on four targets for 20 yards in Saturday's 19-14 loss to the Texans. Hooper tied for the team lead with four targets, though he didn't manage much production with the opportunity. He delivered a key 15-yard gain on a potential game-winning drive with only 15 seconds remaining, but Malik Willis threw an interception on the following play. Hooper has now earned at least four targets in seven consecutive games.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Two catches against Chargers

    Hooper recorded two catches on four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chargers. Hooper played fewer snaps than both Chigoziem Okonkwo and Geoff Swaim, though he still was among three Titans with four targets. He made good use of the opportunity, and his 17-yard catch late in the fourth quarter led directly to a game-tying touchdown for Tennessee. After a slow start to the season, Hooper has at least 30 yards in seven of his last nine contests.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Delivers 68 yards in loss

    Hooper recorded five receptions on five targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Jaguars. Hooper maintained a significant role in Tennessee's offense even with the emergence of Chigoziem Okonkwo, finishing tied for second on the team with five receptions. While he didn't find the end zone, Hooper managed explosive gains of 24 and 17 yards to account for the majority of his damage. He now has at least three receptions in each of his last five games, though he had previously failed to top 41 yards in that span.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Week 14 Streamers (TE Preview)

    Hooper may be the No. 1 pass catcher in Tennessee if Treylon Burks is out. He has 20 targets over the last four weeks, but the efficiency just hasn't been very good. The hope is that improves against the worst defense he's seen since Week 9.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Three catches against Eagles

    Hooper recorded three receptions on five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Eagles. Hooper had the majority of his involvement on a drive late in the second quarter, during which he caught a pair of nine-yard passes. He remains a part-time player with both Geoff Swaim and Chigoziem Okonkwo also working into the tight end rotation, though Hooper has at least three receptions in four consecutive games. While his workload appears relatively safe, Hooper has failed to surpass 41 yards in a game in that same span.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Sit Him (Lineup Decisions)

    Hooper doesn't get enough volume to be anything more than a low-end touchdown-or-bust tight end in Week 13. You're much more likely to get a better scoring output from Tyler Conklin, Hayden Hurst or Foster Moreau.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Posts 30 yards

    Hooper recorded three receptions on four targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals. Hooper continued to see consistent involvement in the Tennessee offense and tallied his third straight game with at least four targets. He recorded receptions of 12,10 and eight yards, all three of which came on the team's drive just before halftime. While unremarkable, Hooper has posted four consecutive games with at least 30 receiving yards.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Sleeper TEs

    One reason for Ryan Tannehill playing better of late has been the production from Hooper. He has 11 targets in his past two games against Denver and Green Bay and has finished with nine catches for 77 yards and two touchdowns over that span. The Bengals have allowed four tight ends to score at least 12 PPR points this season, including Pat Freiermuth in Week 11, and hopefully Hooper can stay hot in this matchup. He's worth using as a low-end starter in all leagues.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Week 12 Waiver Priority List

    Hooper is trending in the right direction with his production of late. He has 11 targets in his past two games against Denver and Green Bay and has finished with nine catches for 77 yards and two touchdowns over that span. Ryan Tannehill is looking for Hooper, and he's worth using as a low-end starter in all leagues for Week 12 against the Bengals. Hooper is worth at least 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Continues surge with pair of scores

    Hooper brought in all four targets for 36 yards and two touchdowns in the Titans' 27-17 win over the Packers on Thursday night. The veteran tight end's tenure in Tennessee had mostly been a disappointment until Week 7, when Hooper started on an upward trajectory that culminated with his first pair of scoring grabs as a Titan. Hooper's first touchdown reception came on a nifty three-yard jump pass from Derrick Henry, and the second was a 16-yard grab on the first play of the fourth quarter that closed out the scoring on the night. Hooper now has a 15-172-2 line over his last five games, numbers he'll next have a chance to build on in a Week 12 home contest versus the Bengals a week from Sunday.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Season-high five catches

    Hooper recorded five catches on seven targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Broncos. The Titans took to the air more than is typically the case, as Derrick Henry was shut down on the ground. Hooper was a beneficiary, and he logged his highest target and reception total of the season. He did the majority of his damage late, as he tallied three catches for 29 yards in the final quarter. Hooper likely will continue to play a significant role in the passing game, though it's been difficult to predict when the Titans will choose to employ a more aggressive offensive approach.

  • Titans' Austin Hooper: Nabs two catches in loss

    Hooper had two receptions (three targets) for 34 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Chiefs. Hooper actually turned in his one of his better stat lines in a game where his starting quarterback completed just five passes. The 27-year-old still owns a paltry 12/150/0 receiving line through eight starts, making him a non-factor in most fantasy formats heading into a matchup with Denver next Sunday.
