Commanders | Ben Sinnott excited for role Fri Jul 31, 05:28 PM
Washington Commanders TE Ben Sinnott said he is excited with how the tight ends are being used in the offense this year. 'We're just doing everything,' Sinnott said. 'It's so much fun. It's a breath of fresh air for this offense and how it uses tight ends.'
| Footballguys view: The 2024 second round pick has been considered a bust to this point in his career, but he should get on the field more in two tight end sets as the Commanders have Jayden Daniels line up under center to set up the running game better this year. Keep tabs on Sinnott in deep tight end premium dynasty leagues. |

Packers | Tucker Kraft ready to go Fri Jul 31, 11:01 AM
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list Friday, July 31, and will practice.
| Footballguys view: Kraft's stay on the PUP was short. He does not rely on explosive movements as a route runner or otherwise need to be at true full speed to harvest most of the fantasy value he can create. Kraft also has a warrior mentality on the field, so he should have no problem with the psychological side of returning from a serious injury. He was the #1 tight end in PPR leagues when he went down, so Kraft could end up being a great value going off of the board as TE5 in the seventh round in the latest Footballguys Consensus ADP. |

Saints | Taysom Hill will not be returning Thu Jul 30, 02:14 PM
Free-agent TE Taysom Hill (Saints) is still deciding if he will continue his playing career but indicated he will not be re-signing with the New Orleans Saints if he plays in 2026.
| Footballguys view: Hill spent nine years with the Saints as a TE/QB/Swiss Army knife player. He may not have many suitors based on his age and declining skill set. However, Broncos HC Sean Payton used Hill in a variety of ways. Hill turns 36 in August, but he could be a versatile reserve tight end and quarterback for the Broncos. Stay tuned. |

Green Bay Packers TE Luke Musgrave (neck) is on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list because of neck injury, and the team will be cautious with his return, according to general manager Brian Gutekunst.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com suggests, if Musgrave is able to return to the practice field in short order, he may benefit from increased reps as Tucker Kraft (ACL), who is also on the active/PUP list, progresses in his own recovery. That said, Kraft expects to resume practicing soon and to be on the field for Week 1. His presence would obviously limit Musgrave's opportunities. |

Seahawks | AJ Barner 'feeling really good' after offseason surgeries Tue Jul 28, 12:35 AM
Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner (undisclosed) is 'feeling really good' after two offseason surgeries in the spring, according to a source on Monday, July 27. Barner avoided the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list and will likely have his reps in training camp managed.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com suggested, Barner's availability to open camp is a positive early sign after he missed offseason workouts due to a pair of undisclosed surgeries. The 2024 fourth-rounder is looking to defend his role as the Seahawks' clear top tight end in a room that also includes second-year option Elijah Arroyo. Barner started all 17 regular-season games in 2025, totaling 52 catches (on 68 targets) for 519 yards and six touchdowns. |

Cardinals | Trey McBride not satisfied Mon Jul 27, 12:46 AM
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride said there are 'a lot' of things he is working to improve. 'I just want to keep getting better every day,' McBride said. 'And that's kind of my goal. And I'm going to keep trying to do that every year. And hopefully each year will exceed the previous.'
| Footballguys view: That will be tough. McBride, coming off a monstrous 315.9-point campaign, finished 2025 with 126 receptions, 1,239 yards, and 11 touchdowns. That's 105.1 points more than Atlanta's Kyle Pitts Sr., who was the next highest scorer at the position. McBride averaged 18.6 fantasy points per game. His league-high 15 top-12 fantasy weeks were six more than any other player at the position. Concerns? McBride's 11 touchdowns last year nearly doubled his combined total of six scores over his first three seasons. Still, his second-round price tag makes him a reasonable buy at cost. |

Barner and Elijah Arroyo are the tight ends of interest in this offense, although neither is being drafted as a front-line fantasy prospect. |

Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta (herniated disc) was reportedly cleared in full for training camp but is expected to be full go, according to a source on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: LaPorta has settled in as one of the league's top tight ends. His TE1 season as a rookie defied history when it came to first-year tight ends as fantasy producers. But he's slowed down since, pulling in a combined 100 passes for 1,215 yards and 10 touchdowns in 25 games over the past two seasons. Nonetheless, he was on track for a third straight top-10 finish at his position last year, and he finished seventh in points per game. LaPorta is being drafted as TE8. |

Broncos | 'A surprise' if Evan Engram earns more snaps than Adam Trautman in 2026 Tue Jul 21, 04:42 PM
Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram earned 40% of snaps last season, compared to 57% for fellow TE Adam Trautman, and it would be a surprise if Engram earned more time on the field than Trautman in 2026, in the opinion of Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post on Tuesday, July 21.
| Footballguys view: As Footballguy Matt Waldman notes, Engram was third in targets last year, but he only scored once. And unless he generates 90-100 targets or 8-10 scores, don't expect a return to starting fantasy TE status in most formats. The timeshare with Trautman makes those numbers unlikely. |

Packers | Tucker Kraft contract extension next? Tue Jul 21, 01:01 AM
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft is entering the final season of his contract and the Packers hope to get an extension done with him, in the opinion of Jordan Schultz on Monday, July 20.
| Footballguys view: NFL insider Ian Rapoport also reported that Kraft is the Packers' top priority for an extension before the season begins. Kraft is currently slated to make $3.624 million in base salary with a $3.93 million cap hit after triggering the proven performance escalator. That's a bargain for a tight end of his caliber, and both sides know it. Kraft is recovering from a torn ACL, which could impact negotiations, but Green Bay already locked up Sean Rhyan, Jayden Reed, Christian Watson, Devonte Wyatt, and Isaiah McDuffie. Kraft is the obvious next domino to fall. |
