Thomas Fidone II
TE
New York Giants
- Teammate Malik Nabers (a top target) is questionable.
A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.
This is how TEs have played against the Saints in the 2026 season.
TE1 = the highest-scoring TE against Saints in each game, not a fixed depth-chart spot.

What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Thomas Fidone II has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Saints opponents to line them up with: the best TE they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Thomas Fidone II will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Saints avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Thomas Fidone II's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Thomas Fidone II usually produces.
Projected is Thomas Fidone II's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Saints were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.
| Wk | Opp | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | HOU | 1 | 1 | 29 | 0 | 3.9 |
| II avg | 1.0 | 1.0 | 29.0 | 0.0 | 3.9 | |
| Saints TE1 avg | 7.4 | 5.8 | 58.6 | 0.2 | 12.9 | |
| Difference | +6.4 | +4.8 | +29.6 | +0.2 | +9.0 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what II averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
