Finds end zone
Tonyan recorded four receptions on four targets for 22 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-26 loss to the Buccaners in the NFC Championship Game.
Analysis: Tonyan continued to fill the role of red-zone threat, scoring from eight yards away midway through the third quarter. Between both 16 regular-season contests and two playoff games, Tonyan managed 12 touchdowns and emerged as a trusted option for Aaron Rodgers. Tonyan will enter the offseason as a restricted free agent, though it's likely that the Packers will tender him a contract after his breakout performance throughout the 2020 campaign.

Racks up 60 yards
Tonyan recorded four receptions on four targets for 60 yards in the Packers' divisional-round win over the Rams on Saturday.
Analysis: Tonyan picked up over half of his yards on a play just before halftime, when Aaron Rodgers evaded pressure and found him well down the field for a 33-yard game. Otherwise, Tonyan's longest reception went for 12 yards, and he was overshadowed by other peripheral options like Allen Lazard. Even so, Tonyan reached 60 receiving yards for only the fourth time in 17 games this season.

Finds paydirt in finale
Tonyan caught both his targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Tonyan was held under the 20-yard mark for the third game in a row, but he did reach the end zone for the sixth time in the last seven games, and the 11th time overall this season. Tonyan finished the regular season 13th among tight ends in both receptions and receiving yards, but he tied Travis Kelce for the most scores among players at his position, which made him one of the more productive tight ends in any fantasy format.

Disappears on SNF
Tonyan caught just one pass (two targets) for 17 yards in Sunday's 40-14 rout of the Titans.
Analysis: Tonyan was riding high on a five-game touchdown streak, but that came to a screeching halt with Sunday's empty stat line. The budding tight end was not the only Green Bay receiver to be left out in the cold, as no other tight end or wide receiver outside of Davante Adams received more than two looks from Aaron Rodgers all game long. Green Bay's star duo picked on the Titans' defense and left little scraps for the rest of the crew. Tonyan will look to earn back Rodgers' attention in the red zone…read more

Finds end zone again
Tonyan recorded three receptions on three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Week 15 against the Panthers.
Analysis: Tonyan found the end zone for the fifth consecutive week, logging a one-yard touchdown reception to cap the Packers' first possession. One play earlier, he had hauled in a pass for seven yards to bring the team to the goal line. Thereafter, Tonyan was held silent on the stat sheet until the fourth quarter, when he tacked on a 10-yard reception. Though he has surpassed 50 receiving yards only once in his last seven games, Tonyan has been a key contributor near the end zone. That should keep him…read more

Tied atop league in tight end TDs
Tonyan caught all five of his targets for 36 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-24 win against the Lions.
Analysis: At a position where viable options are especially hard to come by in fantasy, under-drafted breakouts become especially valuable. Tonyan has been precisely that during his third active pro campaign out of Indiana State, as the 26-year-old currently finds himself tied with Travis Kelce at an NFL-high nine receiving TDs among tight ends. He's attracted exactly five targets in four consecutive games, reeling in 19 of those 20 opportunities for 186 yards and four scores. Tonyan seems poised to keep…read more

Finds end zone again
Tonyan caught four of five targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-16 win over the Eagles.
Analysis: The tight end got into the end zone for a third straight game, hauling in a 25-yard strike from Aaron Rodgers late in the second quarter. Tonyan now has eight TDs this season after scoring only two in 27 games during his first two NFL campaigns, and his odds of extending his scoring streak seem pretty good in Week 14 against a Lions defense that just gave up a touchdown to Bears rookie TE Cole Kmet.

Leads team in receiving
Tonyan (ankle) hauled in all five of his targets for 67 yards and a score in Sunday's 41-25 win over Chicago.
Analysis: Tonyan was late to the scoring party in the one-sided affair, cashing in on a 39-yard score in the third quarter that rescued what would have been a pedestrian outing. The 26-year-old has been a pleasant surprise since taking over as the starting tight end this season, totaling 37 receptions, 458 yards and seven touchdowns through 11 contests. Tonyan remains a fantasy threat so long as he has the trust of Aaron Rodgers, which he continues to build week by week. The rising star will next take on…read more

Ready for Week 12
Tonyan (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's contest versus the Bears, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Tonyan was listed as limited on the Packers' first two injury reports of Week 12, but a full session Friday has cleared him for game action. He'll look to take advantage of a Chicago defense that has allowed the sixth-most touchdown catches (six, tied with eight other teams) to opposing tight ends this season.

Analysis: After recording five touchdowns in three games between Weeks 2 and 4, Tonyan was held out of the end zone for five consecutive contests before ending the scoring drought this past Sunday at Indianapolis. He also put up his fourth-most receiving yards (44) and matched his second-most catches (five) in a single game this season.

First score since Week 4
Tonyan caught all five of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Colts.
Analysis: Tonyan went five games without finding the end zone, but he snapped that skid early in Sunday's contest, hauling in a 25-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers in the first quarter. Despite the slow stretch, Tonyan now has six receiving scores on the season, which ties him for 11th in the league and third among tight ends. He hasn't provided much help for fantasy players when he hasn't found pay dirt however, as he hasn't racked up the receptions and yardage some of his counterparts have.…read more

Ready for Sunday
Tonyan (ankle) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game in Indianapolis, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Tonyan has been listed on the practice report with either a knee or ankle injury for the past month or so, but he's played at least 50 percent of offensive snaps in each of the Packers' nine games this season. Production has been far less consistent than playing time, with Tonyan scoring each of his five touchdowns in a three-game stretch over Weeks 2-4. He's averaging only 2.8 catches for 34.8 yards per game in five appearances since the end of his TD streak.

Tonyan (ankle) was a limited participant at practice Thursday.
Analysis: Tonyan's practice reps have been capped for the majority of sessions since the calendar flipped to October, but he's still played at least 50 percent and up to 67 percent of the snaps on offense in each game this season. While he hasn't made a huge impact since scoring five TDs in three games between Weeks 2 and 4 -- a 14-174-0 line on 18 targets the last five contests -- Tonyan is the Packers tight end most likely to make an impact in the box score on a weekly basis.

Tonyan (ankle) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Tonyan has dealt with ankle and knee injuries for a good portion of the season, but his share of the offensive snaps has hovered between 60 and 67 percent for seven of nine outings. Since he went off for five touchdowns in three games from Weeks 2 through 4, he's been kept out of the end zone while accumulating 14 catches (on 18 targets) for 174 yards across the last five games.

Three catches in win over Jags
Tonyan corralled three of his four targets for 33 receiving yards during Sunday's 24-20 win against Jacksonville.
Analysis: Despite Sunday's matchup being between 6-2 and 1-7 teams, game flow worked surprisingly in favor of Green Bay pass-catchers as the Packers found themselves trailing in the final 10 minutes of regulation. The team attempted 34 passes to 25 combined rush attempts, with Tonyan standing as one of five Packers to generate at least three catches. The Indiana State product has been hit-or-miss this season, with four outings of 50-plus receiving yards and/or a touchdown contrasted by five outings with…read more

Analysis: The 26-year-old was considered questionable after cropping up on the injury report with the knee issue Thursday and missing practice Friday, but he'll take the field against the Jaguars.

Uncertain for Sunday
Tonyan (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
Analysis: Tonyan appears truly questionable after he was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant and then held out of Friday's practice. A 1 p.m. ET kickoff makes things a little easier for fantasy managers if it comes down to a game-time decision, allowing for a wide range of alternatives. Teammates Jace Sternberger and Marcedes Lewis could both see extra snaps/targets if Tonyan is out, but neither would be a trustworthy option for fantasy lineups.

Tonyan was limited in Thursday's practice due to a knee injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Tonyan wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, so the extent of his participation in Friday's session will warrant close monitoring. The 26-year-old tight end only saw one target during last Thursday's win in San Francisco, his least amount of looks since Week 1.

Limited to one reception
Tonyan recorded a five-yard reception on his lone target in Thursday's 34-17 victory over the 49ers.
Analysis: Tonyan was on the field for 62 percent of the plays the Packers ran, but quarterback Aaron Rodgers leaned on his receivers and running backs in Week 9. Since breaking out for three touchdowns Week 3 against the Falcons, Tonyan has averaged just 35.3 yards per game and hasn't found the end zone. He's still a decent bet to end the scoring drought Week 10, when the Packers face a Jacksonville team that surrendered seven touchdowns to opposing tight ends over six games between Weeks 2 and 7.

Leading receiver in loss
Tonyan caught five of seven targets for a game-high 79 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: While Davante Adams saw more volume (12 targets) for Green Bay, Tonyan ended up with more yards thanks largely to a 45-yard grab in the third quarter. Adams, however, caught all three of Aaron Rodgers' TD passes, reinforcing who the top dog in the Packers' passing game is. Tonyan's seven targets were still a season high for the third-year tight end, and he should remain a crucial part of the Packers' offense in Week 9 against the 49ers.

He'll thus be on tap for his normal duties as the Packers' top pass-catching option at his position this weekend versus Minnesota.

Puts in limited showing
Tonyan (ankle/knee) was limited at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: While Tonyan played a season-low 50 percent of the offensive snaps during the Packers' Week 7 win at Houston, he wasn't far off the normal 59 to 67 percent he had logged in the team's five other games on the campaign. Since compiling five touchdowns between Weeks 2 and 4, Tonyan has managed just five catches (on six targets) for 57 yards and no scores. In any case, Tonyan will look to get back to full practice participation by the end of the week.

Limited opportunity
Tonyan recorded two receptions on two targets for 32 yards in Week 7 against the Texans.
Analysis: Davante Adams dominated targets, vacuuming 16 of Aaron Rodgers' 34 pass attempts. That left limited volume for the rest of the Packers' pass-catchers, including Tonyan. On the positive side, Tonyan did convert both of his targets into receptions to maintain strong efficiency. However, having seen no more than six targets in any contest this season, it's difficult to rely on Tonyan for consistent production moving forward. He and the Packers will draw a matchup in Week 8 against the Vikings.

Analysis: After tending to a right ankle injury during last Sunday's loss at Tampa Bay, Tonyan didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, but his ability to practice in a limited capacity Friday opened the door for him to suit up this weekend. Indeed, the Packers kept Tonyan off the inactive list, allowing him the opportunity to log his usual offensive snap share of 60-70 percent.

He lacks much of a track record and still is an iffy long-term option in fantasy leagues, but he does appear to be the best bet among Packers tight ends after two weeks, and he could be asked to contribute more in the passing game Week 3 if receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) -- and to a lesser degree, fellow tight end Josiah Deguara (shin) and running back…read more

Leads Packers tight ends in snaps
Tonyan led Packers tight ends in snaps but was not targeted in Sunday's 43-34 victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: Tonyan was on the field for 48 of the 78 plays the Packers offense ran Sunday -- 16 more than any of the team's other tight ends -- but did not draw a pass in his direction. The snap count is encouraging, but the Packers utilized all four of their tight ends to some degree and figure to continue doing so, which will make it difficult for Tonyan or any of the others to make much of a fantasy impact.

Primed for pass-catching role?
Tonyan likely will start the season as Green Bay's top receiving threat at tight end, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The role widely was viewed as Jace Sternberger's to lose, and the 2019 third-round pick may have indeed fallen behind in the competition. The 26-year-old Tonyan will likely be part of a rotation at the position, with Sternberger, Josiah Deguara and Marcedes Lewis also in the mix to earn roles. Tonyan has 14 catches in 27 regular-season games for the Packers, so there hasn't been much hint of fantasy upside during his career.

Undergoes core muscle surgery
Tonyan is recovering from core muscle surgery undergone to address an injury he played through during the 2019 season, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Tonyan was forced to miss five regular-season games last year due to the injury. He hauled in 10 passes for 100 yards and one touchdown across the 11 games he did suit up for. The 25-year-old saw regular usage as Green Bay's third tight end when healthy in 2019, and he could have a shot at an expanded role in 2020 if the team opts to part ways with Jimmy Graham for salary cap reasons. Veteran tight end Marcedes Lewis is also a free agent.

Analysis: Tonyan scored his first touchdown of the season Week 14, but he could not build on that Week 15.

He's played a regular role since returning to action Week 12 following a five-game absence, taking the field on 31.5 percent of the offensive snaps.

The 25-year-old has been targeted only six times in five games, but Aaron Rodgers likes to spread the ball around, so Tonyan could sneak his way into the box score if he's able to take the field.

Doubtful versus Panthers
Tonyan (hip) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Analysis: Tonyan hasn't managed to suit up since Week 5 against the Cowboys due to the lingering hip injury. He practiced in a limited capacity to begin the week but was unable to participate in any capacity Friday. The 25-year-old appears to be trending toward another inactive designation Week 10, in which case rookie Jace Sternberger could benefit from increased opportunities behind Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis.

Limited participant Wednesday
Tonyan (hip) practiced in a limited fashion Wednesday.
Analysis: Tonyan was limited on his last three practice reports leading up to being inactive for Week 9's loss to the Chargers, so it's tough to conclude anything about his status for Sunday's matchup against the Panthers. He's on the right track at least, and Thursday's practice should reveal more. The 25-year-old tight end has four catches for 66 yards over five games this season, and he may face competition from rookie Jace Sternberger when he returns.

Won't suit up Sunday
Tonyan (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jason Wahlers of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Tonyan will watch his third straight game from the sidelines. Rookie Jace Sternberger was just activated off injured reserve with an ankle issue and will make his NFL debut in this contest, taking over the No. 3 tight-end role behind Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis.

Questionable for Sunday
Tonyan (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Tonyan was a limited practice participant all week and may have a chance to see game action for the first time since suffering the hip injury Week 5. Even if active, the 25-year-old is unlikely to provide much fantasy production while working as the No. 3 tight end behind Jimmy Graham and Marcedes Lewis.
