Jack Doyle, TE, Indianapolis Colts

DraftKings Price: $4,700

Projected Points: 6.03

There are seven other tight ends who cost more than Jack Doyle on DraftKings' 16-game main slate Sunday, but arguably none have a better matchup. The Houston Texans boast the league's 24th-overall passing defense (per our metrics) and have allowed the 9th-highest percentage of fantasy points (16%) to opposing tight ends.

More importantly, Doyle's usage (7.3 targets per game) with the Indianapolis Colts keeps his floor as high as anyone else's at his position whether he reaches the end zone or not. There's no greater example of this than the fact he ranks eighth-overall among tight ends in fantasy points (155.2) but has scored only three touchdowns on the year. Any touchdowns is an added bonus for those who choose to pay up for him this week.

Thee Texans have allowed the second-most yards per attempt (8.2) to opposing tight ends this season, and Doyle should be in for another solid day in Indy's finale.
