Summary
Chris Manhertz carries a 33.0 dynasty score, ranking 260 at TE. With a 98th percentile durability grade and a 43rd percentile age trajectory, Manhertz is likely to maintain a stable role, but his production has declined, and his efficiency has plateaued, suggesting a need for a rebound.
Projection Rationale
Manhertz’s 1.2 fantasy points per game in 2025 indicates a need for a rebound in production. He has a 7th percentile production grade, which suggests he can improve. With one year remaining on his contract, Manhertz’s role security is somewhat uncertain.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Given his 98th percentile durability grade and 34 years of age, Manhertz’s injury risk profile is relatively low.
Opportunity Notes
Manhertz’s snap share trended up in 2025, averaging 15.9%. However, with a declining production trend, it is unclear if he will maintain a significant role in the Giants’ offense.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Matt Nagy coordinates a west coast offense with a 80.0% shotgun rate and a 28.0% 12 personnel grouping. This scheme type does not directly affect Manhertz’s fantasy production, as he is primarily a receiving tight end.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Manhertz’s production has declined, and his efficiency has plateaued, indicating a downward trajectory.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: TE4-TE6. For Manhertz to reach this ceiling, he must rebound from his declining production trend and maintain a significant role in the Giants’ offense. Floor: TE9-TE12. If Manhertz’s production continues to decline, he may struggle to maintain a starting role, and his trade value will decrease.
