Questionable, full practice Friday (groin). Fantasy football: Harold Fannin Jr. practises in full Friday after a limited practice Thursday (groin).
By Fantasy Roundup Staff · November 13, 2026 · Updated November 15, 2026
Harold Fannin Jr. practised in full Friday after limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday with a groin issue. The Browns tight end is listed questionable for Sunday's home game against Houston, meaning managers should check the inactive list about 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.
A full practice Friday is encouraging but not a guarantee Fannin plays. He averaged 13.2 half-PPR points over his last three games on 7.7 targets and a 21 per cent target share, with an 84 per cent snap share. Our models project 8.1 half-PPR points a game and rank him eighth of 112 tight ends with a Roundup Score of 68 out of 99, driven by the sixth-ranked role security score (81 out of 99) and sixth-ranked receiving score (77 out of 99).
Fantasy impact
Player by player
Harold Fannin Jr.
Fannin's workload over the last three games shows strong involvement in Cleveland's passing attack. He posted 6 receptions a game on 7.7 targets, 95.7 receiving yards and 13.2 half-PPR points over that span, though the games differed: 18.4 half-PPR points in Week 8 against Pittsburgh on 10 catches and 154 yards from 12 targets, then 10.1 points in Week 7 and 11.2 points in Week 9. He is scoring 5.7 half-PPR points a game above what his usage predicts over the last three games, ranking second of 106 tight ends, indicating some touchdown or big-play luck that may not repeat.
Houston allows 7.8 half-PPR points a game to tight ends, the fourth fewest of 32, making this a difficult matchup. Fannin posted a weighted opportunity rating of 0.43 over the last three games, ranking eighth of 113 tight ends, and his 17 per cent air yards share ranks 13th, showing meaningful involvement in the downfield passing game. If active Sunday, he remains a TE1 option in half-PPR formats, though standard managers should weigh the tough matchup and full-PPR managers can lean on the target volume.
What to do
• Check the inactive list about 90 minutes before Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff to confirm Harold Fannin Jr. is active.
• If Fannin plays, start him as a TE1 in half-PPR and full-PPR formats despite the difficult matchup with Houston.
• Standard managers should consider the tough matchup and Fannin's recent touchdown variance before locking him in.
