2022 Receiving Projections
2022 Fantasy Outlook
Utah was already tight-end heavy with its offensive philosophy and that could be even more apparent this year after the Utes lost some talent at receiver. Kuithe logged career-highs across the board in every major receiving category and his receptions spiked to 50 after a previous career-high of 34. Fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid is also a factor after catching eight touchdowns last season, but Kuithe’s role is secure nonetheless. Utah’s offense can support multiple tight ends and Kuithe is the first one to target while Kincaid is a worthy pick later in drafts. Read Past Outlooks
Returning for sixth season
Kuithe (knee) confirmed Monday via his personal Twitter account that he will return to Utah for his sixth season of eligibility in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Kuithe entered the 2022 season with the intention of leaving school for the NFL in 2023, but an ACL tear suffered in a Sept. 24 game at Arizona State thwarted those plans. Since his projected nine-month rehab program would prevent him from working out for teams in advance of the draft, Kuithe will instead stay at Utah for another year to boost his stock and enter the pre-draft process at full health in 2024. Kuithe, who recorded 19 catches for 206 yards and three touchdowns in four games before going down with the season-ending injury, should be fully cleared for Week 1 of the 2023 campaign.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
This time last year, Kuithe was considered a Top 3 player at his position. He’s not being drafted as such this year, but it’d be a mistake to overlook him. Kuithe’s lack of touchdown production stands out as he had zero after scoring nine in 2019, but that metric isn’t always sticky year-over-year, and if anything, Kuithe’s bad touchdown luck with a 25 percent target share makes him a candidate for positive regression. He gets the added bonus of better quarterback play this season with Baylor transfer Charlie Brewer, too. Don’t let 2020’s bad luck steer you off Kuithe.
