During the offseason, the Packers re-signed Tonyan as an exclusive-rights free agent, putting him under contract in Green Bay for 2020. It’s looking like the TE is working his way to another more lucrative contract for 2021 and beyond. Through 4 games for the 4-0 Packers, Tonyan sits at TE2 with 60.3 PPR fantasy points. He is one catch and 4 yards away from equaling his career totals in 2020. The highlight of his career to date was the Packers 30-16 Monday night victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Tonyan finished with 6 catches on 6 targets for 98 yards and 3 touchdowns. Robert Tonyan has a role in this Packers offense and is in position to be a top-12 TE in 2020.
