Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. is expected to take a significant step forward in his second NFL season. Fannin, a third-round pick in the 2025 draft, led the team in receptions, receiving yards, and touchdowns as a rookie. With increased talent around him, there are high expectations for his performance, with NFL executives projecting him as a potential 100-catch player. Fannin, however, is not yet ranked among the Top 10 tight ends in the league, according to ESPN’s survey. The Browns’ upcoming season requires Fannin to prove that his rookie production was not solely due to his high target count.

- •Fannin currently lacks a Top 10 ranking among NFL tight ends.
