Chiefs | Travis Kelce loses weight Sat Jun 14, 09:38 AM
Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce did not participate in optional organized team activities earlier this week but he will be in attendance for mandatory minicamp next week. He has told people close to him that he lost approximately 25 pounds this offseason, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Browns | Harold Fannin Jr. impressing Fri Jun 13, 04:57 PM
Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. has stood out during OTAs, according to tight ends coach Christian Z. Jones. 'The guy catches everything, tracks the ball well and really adjusts to the ball in the air,' Jones said.
| Footballguys view: Fannin could be on the field a lot this year, along with stalwart David Njoku, limiting the number of three wide receiver sets - which is the main way Diontae Johnson can get on the field. The passing game could have a pulse if Joe Flacco starts, but don't expect him to remain the starter all year as the Browns will want to see what they have in draft picks Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders. While Fannin is worth stashing in dynasty leagues, it's difficult to see him mattering in redraft leagues. |

Buffalo Bills TE Dalton Kincaid was a standout performer in practice on Thursday, June 12, and has 'worked his tail off' during the offseason, according to general manager Brandon Beane.'He's been here the whole time. I felt like I ... probably was a little over-critical (of his performance in 2024). I wasn't trying to be, but felt like maybe I could have done a better job (of talking about his last season). He's been here, he's worked his tail off. He's one competitive dude,' Beane told WGR Sports Radio 550.

Raiders | Michael Mayer stood out in spring practices Fri Jun 13, 02:18 PM
Las Vegas Raiders TE Michael Mayer enjoyed a 'great offseason,' according to head coach Pete Carroll.'We started out going heart to heart with him to understand what we're all about. And he embraced it and took it as well as anybody could take the challenge of bringing it day in and day out. He had a great camp,' Carroll told the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
| Footballguys view: Mayer has a second round pedigree and could still matter in fantasy leagues, but won't this year without an injury to Brock Bowers. There's a remote possibility that he is traded before the season, but he could be very useful to Chip Kelly and the new regime in two tight end sets and gives the Raiders more personnel set versatility. He's only a dynasty stash in deep and tight end premium leagues. |

Bears | Colston Loveland's status for camp uncertain Thu Jun 12, 09:45 AM
Chicago Bears TE Colston Loveland (shoulder) is still recovering from a shoulder injury, and head coach Ben Johnson would not say if Loveland will be a full participant when training camp begins.
| Footballguys view: Loveland was arguably the best tight end in the 2025 NFL Draft. He can fly down the field and is a threat in the middle of the defense. When healthy, Loveland can be Johnson's version of Sam LaPorta...and that should get the attention of every Fantasy GM out there. Loveland is a TE2 with upside this season splitting time with Cole Kmet. |
Steelers | Darnell Washington catching eye of QB Thu Jun 12, 09:45 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers TE Darnell Washington was compared to Marcedes Lewis by QB Aaron Rodgers.

Chargers | Oronde Gadsden II making an early impression Thu Jun 12, 01:08 AM
Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II has been impressive during minicamp, according to ESPN's Kris Rhim, who writes that the rookie 'projects to be a key piece' in LA's offensive attack. Offensive coordinator Greg Roman remarked that he thinks Gadsden will 'ascend quickly.'
| Footballguys view: Gadsen is a tight end with freakish athletic ability. A fifth-round pick out of Syracuse, Gadsen is tough to cover at the linebacker level. Right now, Gadsen is the no.3 tight end for the Chargers behind Will Dissly and Tyler Conklin. We appreciate Gadsen in dynasty formats, but his path to production this year has some roadblocks. |

Talks with the Steelers didn't bear any fruit, but with Smith seeking a new contract in Miami after a career-best season in 2024, discussions are likely ongoing. We'll continue to watch for more. |

Broncos | Evan Engram miscast in Denver? Wed Jun 11, 12:30 AM
Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram is a 'curious fit' in head coach Sean Payton's offensive scheme, in the opinion of ESPN's Bill Barnwell, who believes Engram lacks the 'physicality' of TE Jeremy Shockey, as well as the 'verticality and ability to win in the red zone' of TE Jimmy Graham -- those were the two tight ends that Barnwell noted had success as the 'Joker' under Payton, a role that Engram was signed to fill during the offseason.
| Footballguys view: Barnwell explained that Engram has always been more of a safety valve than a threat with the ball in his hands. Additionally, Barnwell points out that Engram's career-high 963 receiving yards in 2023 came on 143 targets, and he believes it would be a surprise if the volume was there for Engram to reach 140-plus targets again. For fantasy investors, the price -- he's being drafted as TE9 at the end of Round 8 -- isn't so high that we need peak Engram to return value. |

Falcons | Atlanta to be cautious with Kyle Pitts Wed Jun 11, 12:05 AM
Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts (foot) is expected to take things slow during the offseason workouts, head coach Raheem Morris told reporters Tuesday, June 10.
| Footballguys view: With Pitts heading into a make-or-break season in Atlanta, ensuring he's healthy for training camp makes sense. Beyond that, Morris discussed the "hope" the team still had in Pitts based on the fact that "he's super talented." That's true. However, as Fansided's Nick Halden suggests, the issue has consistently been Pitts' ability to play through the whistle and put his body on the line to earn the trust of his quarterback. Until this changes, the results are only going to improve marginally, no matter what level of talent Michael Penix Jr. proves to be. |

Vikings | Josh Oliver lands new deal Tue Jun 10, 12:39 PM
Minnesota Vikings TE Josh Oliver agreed to terms on a three-year, $23.25 million contract extension Tuesday, June 10, according to a source. The maximum value is $27.5 million, and Oliver will receive $19.9 million in guaranteed money.
| Footballguys view: Profootballtalk.com notes that Oliver was heading into the third and final year of the three-year, $21 million contract he signed with the Vikings in 2023. He was originally a third-round pick of the Jaguars in 2019 and was traded to the Ravens in 2021 before signing with the Vikings in 2023. Last season, Oliver played in 15 games with 12 starts on offense and also played 30 percent of the Vikings' special teams snaps. |

Dolphins | Jonnu Smith absent Tue Jun 10, 10:13 AM
Miami Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith is not at the team's minicamp Tuesday, June 10.
| Footballguys view: Smith is seeking a new contract in Miami after setting a club tight end record with 884 receiving yards on 88 catches with eight touchdowns last year. Smith is set to earn $4.1 million in 2025. While the Dolphins had some discussions about trading Smith, no deal has come to pass. As NFL.com notes, head coach Mike McDaniel has acknowledged Smith is a vital cog in the Dolphins offense. Miami would be hard-pressed to fill that role if it were to trade the 29-year-old. Remember: Smith will be subject to more than $100,000 in fines for missing the three-day session. |

Ravens | Isaiah Likely surprising rookie safety Mon Jun 9, 02:44 PM
Baltimore Ravens TE Isaiah Likely has been 'the toughest guy to cover in practice so far,' according to teammate - and 2025 first-round pick - S Malaki Starks.
| Footballguys view: Last season, the Ravens had two tight ends they relied on every game, with Mark Andrews and Likely. Andrews led the Ravens among tight ends in receiving yards with 673 yards on 69 catches, while Isaiah Likely also had a key role in the offense with 477 yards of his own. But Likely is the longer-term answer in Baltimore, and reports like this confirm what we've seen flashes of the last three seasons. |
Bills | Dalton Kincaid played through two knee injuries Sun Jun 8, 09:55 AM
Buffalo Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knees) played through injuries to both knees during the 2024 season. He dealt with a posterior cruciate ligament injury to his left knee and a Morel-Lavallee lesion, which resulted in bursitis, in his right knee.
| Footballguys view: Kincaid missed time last year after initially suffering at least one of the injuries in Week 10. His performance did drop off after the injury and in the playoffs, but he was only TE16 in PPR leagues before Week 10. Kincaid is currently TE14 in our Footballguys consensus ADP, so it doesn't seem like the fantasy football hive mind is buying into a breakout year for him. |

Broncos | Coach praises Evan Engram Sat Jun 7, 11:45 AM
Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram has show 'real good instincts' during OTAs, according to head coach Sean Payton.
| Footballguys view: Payton has been looking for his 'joker' on offense, and that's why the team went out and got Engram this offseason. Engram's season was cut short last year, but if healthy he's in line to catch 65-70 passes from Bo Nix. His touchdowns won't push him to the top of the tight end pack, but low-end TE1 production is there for Engram in 2025. |

Ravens | Isaiah Likely an extension candidate Sat Jun 7, 10:59 AM
Baltimore Ravens TE Isaiah Likely is a player the Ravens could target for an extension, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
| Footballguys view: Likely is the tight end of the future in Baltimore, and the future looks bright with his upside and potential. Just about a week ago, Ravens HC John Harbaugh said "I want to see (Isaiah Likely) be an All-Pro" in 2025. That means Likely be working to get out of the shadow of Mark Andrews this year. That also means it would be wise for the Ravens to take care of business with Likely before his production skyrockets (as well as his price tag). |

Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts was reportedly the subject of a phone call between the Falcons and Pittsburgh Steelers recently, according to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: It sounds like teams are interested in acquiring Pitts, but only on the cheap, which the Falcons reportedly are not willing to do. Pitts value is still at rock bottom in both redraft and dynasty, and a trade to the Steelers wouldn't be good for his fantasy prospects. We'll see if any other former Arthur Smith players are the subject of trade speculation for the Steelers this summer as they try to bolster the passing game for new quarterback Aaron Rodgers. |

Bears | Ben Johnson talks up two offensive players Thu Jun 5, 03:04 PM
Chicago Bears TE Joel Wilson and RB Kyle Monangai were identified by head coach Ben Johnson as two of the players who have stood out on offense this spring.
| Footballguys view: Let's put a pin in this news item and circle back when the Bears are in training camp and the preseason. During OTAs, Fantasy GMs should be listening for 'drum beats' of information. This one is loud and clear coming from Johnson. Manangai is the no.3 back behind D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson. Wilson is the competing for a roster spot in the tight end room behind Cole Kmet and Colston Loveland. |
Lions | Trio of offensive players impressing Dan Campbell Thu Jun 5, 01:44 PM
Detroit Lions WR Jameson Williams, RB Jahmyr Gibbs and TE Sam LaPorta are a few of the players who have stood out the most to head coach Dan Campbell this spring.
| Footballguys view: These are players we should expect to stand out at OTAs. Williams is coming off a career year in 2024, and he could post even better numbers this year. Gibbs is a stud running back who stars as a runner and receiver out of the backfield. LaPorta is a playmaker tight end who could finish in the top-5 at his position. We love the update from coach Campbell, but everyone pretty much knows these guys will be stand out players in 2025. |

Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts could be available for trade as the team isn't necessarily turning calls away for him, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter. The problem is Pitts is in the last year of his rookie deal, and he's owed nearly $11 million.

Before last year, Schultz was widely regarded as a strength for Houston, essentially serving as the fourth option in the aerial attack. However, a disappointing 2024 shoved Schultz off the fantasy radar. He's being drafted as TE27 this offseason. |

Panthers | Tommy Tremble could return during preseason Wed Jun 4, 12:02 AM
Carolina Panthers TE Tommy Tremble (back) could return before the end of the preseason, head coach Dave Canales told reporters Tuesday, June 3.
| Footballguys view: Tremble had back surgery recently early last month. Tremble, who signed a new two-year deal with the Panthers ahead of free agency in March, joined the team as a 2021 third-round pick. He has 85 catches for 782 yards and nine touchdowns in 61 career games. Ja'Tavion Sanders, at TE32 on the Footballguys Projections, is the most fantasy-relevant Panthers tight end. |

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Donald Parham Jr. (Achilles) suffered a torn Achilles during practice, according to sources Tuesday, June 3. He is expected to miss the entire 2025 season.
| Footballguys view: After four seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers, Parham spent 2024 on the Broncos' practice squad and last played in 2023. With Parham set to miss the season, thhe Steelers have three other tight ends on the roster -- Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington, and J.J. Galbreath. Parham's injury might explain the report that Pittsburgh and Miami have resumed discussing a possible trade that would send Jonnu Smith to the Steelers. |

Updating previous reports, Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts (foot) is not practicing during organized team activities this spring due to a strained muscle in his foot, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Nothing new here. Instead, we get further confirmation of what's been widely reported for more than a week now. Ensuring Pitts is healthy heading into the season is important for the team for a player heading into a make-or-break season. Remember, Pitts finished the 2024 season as TE15, but he was TE23 on a points-per-game basis (with 7.7 points a week). He's being drafted in that same range in early best balls, so gambling on a rebound isn't cost-prohibitive. |

Steelers | PIT asked about Jonnu Smith Tue Jun 3, 10:28 AM
Miami Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith was the subject of conversations with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but they're not expected to trade for him.
| Footballguys view: Smith, who was not present for Miami's voluntary OTA practices last week, expressed interest in the team reworking the two-year deal he signed last offseason. But Drew Rosenhaus, Smith's agent, said Sunday night that his client's "first choice" is to remain with the Dolphins after he set a franchise record for receptions (88) and receiving yards (884) by a tight end last season. Smith led all Dolphins players in receptions and finished behind only Brock Bowers, Trey McBride, and George Kittle leaguewide in receiving yards by a tight end. Smith is going as TE7 in early best-ball drafts. |

Jets | Mason Taylor in line to start? Mon Jun 2, 07:08 PM
New York Jets TE Mason Taylor seems to be the leading candidate for the tight end job entering training camp, in the opinion of JetsWire's Craig Moffett.
| Footballguys view: Taylor opening the season as the starter would not be a massive suprise. Veteran Jeremy Ruckert has been disappointing, although he hasn't gotten many opportunities to shine as a receiving threat. Stone Smartt is an interesting dart throw and could push Ruckert for the backup spot behind Taylor, who will be a capable security blanket for Justin Fields in the passing game. |
Dolphins | Jonnu Smith wants to stay with Miami Mon Jun 2, 06:15 PM
Miami Dolphins TE Jonnu Smith would prefer to remain with the Dolphins, according to agent Drew Rosenhaus. Smith is looking for a pay raise after a productive 2024 season.
| Footballguys view: Smith generated 88 catches for 884 yards with eight touchdowns in his first season in Mike McDaniel's system, finishing first on the team in catches and touchdown grabs and second in receiving yards. As NFL.com suggests, the Dolphins surely don't want to lose a key playmaker in the offense, particularly at a position with no proven backup on board. We'll continue to watch for more. |

Falcons | Kyle Pitts sitting out with a minor injury Mon Jun 2, 01:22 PM
Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts (foot) has been at every offseason meeting but has not participated during organized team activities due to a foot injury, according to head coach Raheem Morris.'Extremely cautious with Kyle right now and what he's got going on. Obviously, don't talk about injuries this time of year, but (we are) definitely being cautious with him, so you won't see him. He's been here, he's done such a great job. ... He's been in every single thing that we've done other than the field, and he's been absolutely outstanding to be around,' Morris said.
| Footballguys view: Pitts, who had 47 receptions for 602 yards with four touchdown catches last season, has been unable to come close to his rookie numbers in 2021 when he had 68 catches for 1,026 yards and a touchdown grab. Since then, though, he has struggled with leg injuries and inconsistency. The Falcons picked up Pitts' fifth-year rookie contract option last offseason, so 2025 will be pivotal in determining what he's able to garner in free agency, either in Atlanta or elsewhere. |

Eagles | Dallas Goedert did not request trade Mon Jun 2, 12:41 AM
Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert did not request a trade earlier this offseason or ask to be released after it had been reported that he would have to take a pay cut for 2025 in order to remain on the team, according to PHLY's Zach Berman. He eventually agreed to terms on a one-year, $10 million restructured deal, with an opportunity to earn an additional $1 million in incentives, after previously having been scheduled to make $14.25 million in 2025.
| Footballguys view: While availability has been an issue, Goedert has played the 24th-most games by a tight end since 2019; he still has the fifth-most games with 50 or more yards. He's had 50 or more yards in 44 percent of his games during those six years, and only Travis Kelce, George Kittle, Mark Andrews, T.J. Hockenson, and Darren Waller have reached 50 yards more frequently among tight ends who've played at least 50 games since 2019. Goedert, who can clearly be a factor when healthy, is being drafted as TE17 in early best balls. |

Bengals | Mike Gesicki more comfortable Sun Jun 1, 04:26 PM
Cincinnati Bengals TE Mike Gesicki said he is becoming more comfortable in the offseason entering his second season with the team and has a better understanding of what QB Joe Burrow does. 'I think the biggest thing is now that I'm in the same system, I'm not worrying about myself as much,' Gesicki said. 'I can concentrate on the defense more, and knowing Joe, I know I'm going to get that freedom out there.'
| Footballguys view: Gesicki's connection with Burrow helped him record 65 receptions in 2024, more than his previous two seasons combined, making him a viable element in the Bengals' powerhouse passing offense. Those 65 catches and 665 yards trailed only his 2021 season with the Miami Dolphins (73 receptions, 780 yards). Gesicki also had two touchdowns and had 38 catches that were first downs. Gesicki finished last season as TE13, but his 8.4 points per game ranked 19th. Still, Gesicki, going as TE23, offers value as the third option in the NFL's pass-heaviest offense. |

Falcons | ATL may not be in rush to extend Kyle Pitts Sun Jun 1, 09:33 AM
Although Atlanta Falcons TE Kyle Pitts is entering a contract year, the team is more likely to see how he performs on the field rather than signing him to a contract extension before or during the season, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Marc Raimondi.
| Footballguys view: Pitts had one of the great rookie seasons in history at tight end (68 catches for 1,026 yards), but he has struggled with injuries and inconsistency over the past three seasons. Atlanta has hope that Michael Penix Jr. at quarterback will bring out the old Pitts, or at least an improved version compared with the past few seasons. Pitts finished the 2024 season as TE15, but he was TE23 on a points-per-game basis (with 7.7 points a week). So far this offseason, he's TE18 going with the 147th pick overall. |
