49ers | George Kittle feeling positive on rehab Mon Aug 17, 01:01 AM

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles), on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list, feels positive about his on-field rehab. 'I'm hitting numbers I need to hit. I'm pretty close,' Kittle said.

Footballguys view: Kittle would miss at least the first four games if he isn't activated back to the active roster on Aug. 30. The veteran tight end tore his right Achilles in a Jan. 11 playoff game against the Eagles. He underwent surgery three days later. Kittle, who continues to target the season opener for his return, said the next two weeks will "let me know if I'm ready to play Week 1 or not." Kittle added that he will have to practice in pads before the season opener to play against the Rams.

Packers | Tucker Kraft back on practice field Sun Aug 16, 02:17 PM

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) was back on offense during team reps practice Sunday, Aug. 16, and he had a touchdown reception from QB Jordan Love. He had his first on-field catches of training camp after offseason surgery. He remains on track to be ready for the regular season.

Footballguys view: Kraft indicated that the would "take into account his rep range" until halfway through the season and then "pat him on his -censored- and send him to the wolves". Considering that he was the TE1 in PPR leagues when he went down with a torn ACL last year, his 6th/7th round ADP more than takes into account the ramp up time he will need to be his old self, but this is confirmation that the team doesn't see him as truly full go to begin the season.

Panthers | Darren Waller inks one-year deal Thu Aug 13, 10:39 AM

Free-agent Darren Waller (Dolphins) has reportedly signed a one-year deal with the Carolina Panthers, according to a source on Wednesday, Aug. 12.

Footballguys view: Waller was retired but played for the Dolphins in nine games last year, scoring six touchdowns while catching 24 passes for 283 yards. The Panthers should use him as a red-zone target, and Waller should rotate snaps with guys like Tommy Tremble, Mitchell Evans, and Ja'Tavion Sanders. The situation and Waller's ability near pay dirt make him a consideration as a low-end TE2 with upside.

Lions | Sam LaPorta impressing Wed Aug 12, 10:57 AM

Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta has impressed in training camp. QB Jared Goff found LaPorta down the left seam for a big gain down to the nine-yard line Tuesday, Aug. 10. The next play was a touchdown pass to LaPorta over the middle, which has been common throughout camp. 'He had a good play down the field (Monday) on third down and he's a stud,' Goff said. 'He's the same guy every day and continues to get better like they all do and got to find ways to give him the ball.'

Footballguys view: LaPorta is a low-end TE1 for Fantasy GMs as per usual. So long as he can stay healthy after an injury-shortened 2025 season, LaPorta should pay off for those who draft him. He's got a current ADP of TE11 (8.06) in 12-team PPR leagues.

Seahawks | AJ Barner moving up pecking order Tue Aug 11, 11:24 AM

Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner said the team will use two tight ends very often in 2026. This will help facilitate the motions and shifts, a staple of the San Francisco 49ers offense from which offensive coordinator Brian Fleury came from. This facet has moved Barner up the pecking order in the offense, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Footballguys view: As ESPN noted, Barner is an ascending tight end who should come into his own in Year 3. He's finally healthy after multiple offseason surgeries. And Fleury's offense should accelerate his progress. Barner can do a little bit of everything. But he made a point of emphasizing another tight end when asked about up-and-comers on the roster: Elijah Arroyo. Those two will be working off of each other a lot in 2026 as a strength of the offense. Barner is being drafted as TE24; Arroyo is TE61.

Texans | Brevin Jordan dealing with injury Tue Aug 11, 12:20 AM

Houston Texans TE Brevin Jordan (knee) is considered day-to-day because of a knee injury, according to head coach DeMeco Ryans.

Footballguys view: As Fansided's Clayton Anderson noted, after missing the last two NFL seasons due to multiple knee injuries, Jordan's opportunities to show his value to the organization were slowly dissipating. That said, there is no reason to believe it's a severe injury at this point. It does put his availability for Thursday's preseason game versus the Chargers into question. According to CBSSports.com, until Jordan is back, rookie second-rounder Marlin Klein could see an uptick in reps.

Dolphins | Greg Dulcich takes part in practice Mon Aug 10, 03:26 PM

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (hand) fully participated in practice Monday, Aug. 10.

Footballguys view: Dulcich has been working in a red no-contact jersey. He's dealing with a right hand or finger injury that was reportedly heavily taped, so his return to full-contact work is encouraging. Once healthy, Dulcich is expected to operate as the top receiving tight end in a new-look Dolphins offense that lacks an established pecking order among its pass catchers.

Panthers | Chamon Metayer let go Mon Aug 10, 01:04 PM

Carolina Panthers TE Chamon Metayer was waived Monday, Aug. 10.

Patriots | Hunter Henry extended Mon Aug 10, 09:46 AM

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry signed a two-year, $16 million extension Monday, Aug. 10. The deal is worth up to $20 million and includes $14.5 million guaranteed and a $4.2 million signing bonus.

Footballguys view: Henry has been one of quarterback Drake Maye's go-to targets in critical situations. Henry has logged 40-plus receptions in each of his five seasons with the Patriots, which is the second-longest streak by a Patriots tight end all time behind Ben Coates' six. He is coming off a 2025 season in which he totaled a career-high 768 receiving yards and enters this year third on the franchise's all-time list for receptions among tight ends (259). Henry, who finished 2025 as TE9, is being drafted as TE19.

Cowboys | Jake Ferguson impressing in camp Fri Aug 7, 01:40 PM

Dallas Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson has shown a 'clear connection' with QB Dak Prescott on intermediate and seam throws during training camp, according to Todd Archer of ESPN.com.

Footballguys view: This might be more newsworthy if it was about a player who wasn't already fantasy relevant last season. In fact, Ferguson was the #1 tight end in fantasy leagues for a bit thanks to a spike in target volume when CeeDee Lamb was hurt. By the end of the season, Ferguson was a non-factor, so this is good news if you have been drafting him in spite of the second half swoon.

Colts | Multiple tight ends worked out Thu Aug 6, 06:26 PM
