News: 2 days agoMcBride finished with 10 receptions on 11 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-22 loss to the 49ers.

Spin: McBride continued his ridiculous hot streak by hitting pay dirt in his fifth straight contest while also recording his second consecutive 100-yard game. The 25-year-old somehow did not finish as the Cardinals' leading receiver, as that honor went to WR Michael Wilson (15-185-0) in a game during which QB Jacoby Brissett set an NFL regular-season record with 47 completed passes in a single game. McBride has been a fantasy beast in 2025, generating 71 receptions, 718 yards and seven touchdowns for managers across 10 starts. The Colorado State product will look to extend his scoring streak to six games against the Jaguars next Sunday.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Since stepping into a starting role in Week 8 of the 2023 season, McBride has an enormous 28.4% target share (9.0 per game). He averaged 6.8 receptions, 69.3 yards and 15.4 fantasy points per game during the span. He was the poster boy for bad TD luck in 2024, totaling three scores (two receiving) despite finishing second at the position in targets, catches, yards, end zone targets (10) and fantasy points. McBride's TE-high 7.9 expected TD total speaks to his bad luck and, though he also didn't score much in 2023 (three TDs on 108 targets), he's a candidate for a big improvement in the area in 2025. McBride is a strong bet to lead all tight ends in fantasy points.
