2024 Fantasy Outlook
Durham logged a modest 125 snaps from scrimmage as a rookie in 2023 and generated a modest 5-58 line on just seven targets. However, new coordinator Liam Coen's offensive system, a derivative of Sean McVay's successful Rams scheme, is expected to utilize a heavy dose of two-tight-end sets that could capitalize on the pass-catching acumen Durham demonstrated during his college days at Purdue.

No targets in return

October 29, 2024
Durham did not see a target during the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Durham logged 11 snaps on offense and another one special teams in his return from a one-game absence due to a calf injury. The 24-year-old has only one reception over his first seven games, and even the absences of Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (IR, ankle) could spur further involvement for the second-year tight end.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Durham is a talented pass-catching asset at the tight end position that could form quite the dual threat in tandem with Cade Otton over time. A 2023 fifth-round pick, Durham isn't without size for blocking at 6-6, 253 pounds, either, and his 101 receptions over his last two seasons at Purdue combined with an effective red-zone presence (21 touchdowns in 36 games) could help him carve out a complementary role behind Otton as a rookie.

Durham impressed as a pass catcher at the Senior Bowl, according to Nick Baumgardner of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Durham's blocking is a work in progress, but the tight end out of Purdue has shown some promising receiving ability. He has a robust catch radius at 6-foot-5 and 258 pounds, and Durham made several contested catches at the Senior Bowl, leading Baumgardner to peg him as a 2023 NFL Draft sleeper.
