Summary
David Njoku carries a 83.0 dynasty score, ranking 19 at TE. Njoku’s 2025 production declined with a 69.8 fantasy points season, and his age and contract situation impact his future role.
Projection Rationale
Njoku’s 2025 stat line of 293 receiving yards and 4 touchdowns indicates a decline in production. His Verdict efficiency grade at the 25th percentile explains the gap between his production and efficiency. Njoku’s contract situation with 3 years remaining and an APY of $10,931,000 impacts his role security.
Injury Risk
Njoku had a series of injuries in 2025, including multiple weeks out and limited participation. His Verdict durability grade at the 76th percentile and his age of 29 create a moderate risk profile.
Opportunity Notes
Njoku’s snap share trended down in 2025, from 84.0% in Week 1 to 49.0% in Week 12. The kicker role is not secure with Njoku’s injuries and declining snap share.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Mike McDaniel coordinates a zone-heavy offense with a 71.1% shotgun rate. This scheme helps Njoku’s ceiling with his ability to work in the zone and motion concepts.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Njoku’s snap share trended down in 2025, and his Verdict trend direction is declining.
Ceiling / Floor
Njoku’s ceiling is TE2-TE3 with the emergence of younger tight ends and his declining snap share. His floor is TE5-TE6 if the injuries persist and he loses his job, referencing his trade value of 4,856.
