2025 Fantasy Outlook
Helm broke out with 60 catches for 786 yards and seven touchdowns as a senior at Texas in 2024 after recording just 236 receiving yards through his first three years with the Longhorns. The 6-foot-5, 241-pound TE ran a disappointing 4.84-second 40-yard dash, and Helm may need to refine his blocking before he earns a consistent role at the NFL level. He was drafted 120th overall by the Titans, and the rookie fourth-round pick will look to earn a role out of the gate in an underwhelming Tennessee tight end room that also includes Chig Okonkwo and Josh Whyle.

Held to one catch
TETennessee Titans
September 30, 2025
Helm recorded one catch on one target for 12 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Texans.
ANALYSIS
Helm was on the field for a season-high 43 percent of offensive snaps, but that didn't translate to opportunity. This marked the first time that he failed to record multiple targets in a game this season, though he also hasn't earned more than three in any contest. Helm is a name to consider in deep dynasty leagues but is otherwise off the fantasy radar.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Starter in rookie season?
TETennessee Titans
August 30, 2025
Matt Miller of ESPN believes Helm could supplant Chig Okonkwo as the Titans' starting tight end during the 2025 season.
ANALYSIS
The Titans committed to using the draft to improve their offense, highlighted by No. 1 overall pick Cameron Ward and fourth-round pass catchers in Helm, Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike. Helm was the rookie that generated the most buzz during Tennessee's training camp outside of Ward, with the former receiving rave reviews from coaches for his toughness and ability to make difficult catches. Okonkwo has started in 30 of 51 regular-season games over the past three years, but Helm could see regular work with the first-team offense if he can establish himself as Ward's safety valve in the passing game.
