At NBC Sports EDGE, we’re striving to give you the tools to guide you to winning your league’s fantasy football championship. With Week 1 looming closer, it’s time to unveil our 2021 NFL Season Tools. Aimed at giving you the knowledge you need to stay a step ahead of your league-mates all season long — from projections, weekly rankings, league sync, top waiver recommendations and positional reports, to exclusive expert columns — this year’s edition is the finest we’ve ever produced.

After looking at Week 1 WR projections in our third Season Tools preview, we’re highlighting Week 1 TE projections today. Projections are a helpful way for managers to gauge the difficulty of a player’s matchup on any given week, as well as offer context into whether or not to expect a boom or bust performance, and thus help you make educated start/sit decisions. The TE postion is a versatile one and we’re confident our projections can help you make confident and informed lineup decisions every time you set your lineup.
