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.

Signed a four-year contract with the Titans in May of 2025.
One catch in regular-season debut
Helm recorded one catch (on two targets) for 16 yards in Sunday's 20-12 loss to the Broncos.
ANALYSIS
Helm was on the field for 40 percent of offensive snaps, a relatively impressive mark considering it was his first regular-season game as a pro. He saw both of his targets in the first half of the first quarter, though the Titans' passing attack wasn't on track for most of the game. Helm may progress slowly, but he should have the chance to emerge as more of a consistent contributor later in the season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Starter in rookie season?
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.
