Link to story Packers | Tucker Kraft clocking in Wednesday Wed Aug 26, 11:37 AM
Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft (knee) will participate in the joint practice Wednesday, Aug. 26.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Packers here. Kraft is going to get eased back into action, beginning with joint practice participation. Earlier this offseason, Kraft said the team will "probably" keep him on a snap count until halfway through the 2026 season. This means Fantasy GMs may have to wait for him as an option. Keep him on your waiver wire speed dial as he can post TE1 numbers when healthy. |

Panthers | Darren Waller unlikely to play Friday Tue Aug 25, 01:13 AM
Carolina Panthers TE Darren Waller will likely be held out of the team's preseason game against the Houston Texans on Friday, Aug. 28. He is expected to take part in some team drills during the joint practice session, however.
| Footballguys view: Waller officially signed with the Panthers last Monday. The 33-year-old would not end up taking part in the joint practice with the Jacksonville Jaguars on Wednesday nor the ensuing preseason contest on Friday. As for this week, when the Houston Texans come to town, Canales says he expects almost the same for the former Pro Bowl pass catcher. Canales also stated that Waller is not expected to suit up for the preseason finale at Bank of America Stadium on Friday. |

Jets | Kenyon Sadiq expected to be ready Tue Aug 25, 01:08 AM
New York Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) is on track to be ready for Week 1, according to head coach Aaron Glenn.
| Footballguys view: Sadiq, the 16th overall pick in the 2026 Draft, underwent hernia surgery in the spring and then suffered a setback that has limited him to side work throughout training camp and the preseason. As CBSSports.com noted, Mason Taylor has been a standout with the first-team offense and is expected to open the season as the clear TE1 for the Jets. But that doesn't make Taylor -- or Sadiq -- fantasy relevant. Consider them waiver-wire watchlist players. |
Dolphins | Big things in store for Greg Dulcich? Tue Aug 25, 12:55 AM
Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich is a 'candidate to lead the team in targets,' in the opinion of ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques.
| Footballguys view: The 26-year-old is slated to handle TE1 duties for the Dolphins this season after he caught 26 passes for 335 yards and one touchdown over the final nine games last regular season. As CBSSports.com suggested, a catch-first athlete at the position, there's a world in which Dulcich paces this offense in receiving in 2026 due to the lack of proven playmaking at the wide receiver position. |

New York Giants TE Theo Johnson (undisclosed) left practice Monday, Aug. 24, early after suffering an undisclosed injury.
| Footballguys view: Johnson went down while blocking, prompting trainers to rush onto the field. According to local reports, Johnson walked off, slammed his helmet into the grass, ripped off his gloves, pulled his hood up, and headed briskly toward the locker room alone, appearing frustrated. Isaiah Likely has been the fantasy-relevant TE in New York all along, but we'll continue to watch for more on Johnson and report back as developments warrant. |

San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle (Achilles) was activated from the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list on Sunday, Aug. 23. However, it still doesn't guarantee Kittle will be ready to play in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams in Australia. However, it's a big step in that direction.
| Footballguys view: We would still guess that Kittle does not make the trip to Australia for Week 1, but that he is full go for Week 2 and ready to be put into fantasy lineups. If you take Kittle as your TE1, you'll need to draft another tight end just in case. |

Lions | Detroit feels good about Sam LaPorta's health Thu Aug 20, 01:46 PM
Detroit Lions TE Sam LaPorta (hip) has missed practice on Wednesday, Aug. 19, but the team feels good about his health longterm, according to head coach Dan Campbell.
| Footballguys view: They can feel good about his health, but there's still no word on whether LaPorta will be ready for Week 1. He could be ready, but Campbell says he's not sure. That's not exactly the ringing endorsement Fantasy GMs want to hear with fantasy football drafts going hot and heavy this month. As they say in Mad Men, "not great Bob" as LaPorta is coming off a back surgery that cut his 2025 season short and now has a preseason injury. His current ADP is TE10 (8.04) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Colts | Tyler Warren suffers adductor strain Thu Aug 20, 11:37 AM
Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren suffered an adductor strain during practice today, according to a source on Wednesday, Aug. 19. In the words of a source, he 'is going to be fine' and is not expected to miss much time, if any, and should be back next week.
| Footballguys view: Colts HC Shane Steichen confirmed Warren suffered a groin injury on Wednesday. They are going to be wisely cautious with the injury that is not seen as serious. We'll see Warren's status for the rest of the preseason, but we're not expecting to see him on Saturday against the Falcons. |

Link to story Colts | Tyler Warren leaves practice early Wed Aug 19, 04:07 PM
Indianapolis Colts TE Tyler Warren (groin) left practice early Wednesday, Aug. 19, because of an apparent groin injury.
| Footballguys view: It doesn't appear to be a serious injury. Warren didn't return to practice and iced the groin injury on the sideline. We expect him to be ready for Week 1. His ADP is far enough behind his peers to make this development immaterial in the question of whether to target him at ADP. If you think he is going to become a foundational player in the Colts pass offense in his second year, a fifth round pick seems reasonable even with the injury seal broken. |
