Chicago Bears tight end Gerald Everett is being activated from the non-injury football list on Monday according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN. The former Charger is getting activated just in time for the start of training camp as he'll go up against Cole Kmet and Marcedes Lewis for his spot on the depth chart this year. The Bears put a lot of weapons in the passing game surrounding rookie quarterback Caleb Williams, so Everett will have a much tougher time racking up enough stats to be fantasy-relevant compared to last year.

The Chicago Bears placed veteran tight end Gerald Everett (undisclosed) on the Non-Football Injury list on Friday. The Bears didn't give a specific injury for Everett, but he did injure his knee in the Week 18 regular-season finale with the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old is now in Chicago in 2024 and will serve as a backup at the position behind Cole Kmet when he's healthy, which will make him unattractive in the vast majority of fantasy leagues. The former second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2017 has only gone over 500 receiving yards once in his career and has never scored more than four touchdowns in a single season, so his upside was already limited. In 15 games (12 starts) for the Bolts last year, Everett hauled in 51 of his 70 targets for 411 yards and three touchdowns. It remains to be seen if Everett will even be ready for the start of the regular season.

The Chicago Bears have agreed to undisclosed terms with veteran free-agent tight end Gerald Everett on Tuesday, according to a source. Everett is heading into his age-30 season in 2024 and is coming off a year in which he caught a modest 51 passes on 70 targets for 411 receiving yards and three touchdowns in his second season with the Los Angeles Chargers in 15 games (12 starts). With the move to Chicago, where he's expected to play second fiddle to Cole Kmet, Everett can no longer be considered in the TE1 grouping in fantasy. In his seven-year career, Everett has never had more than 58 receptions, 478 yards or four touchdowns in a single season. There's basically no upside here for fantasy managers, especially with Chicago expected to be using a rookie quarterback in 2024.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (knee) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs. He initially exited the game during the first quarter. At the time of his departure, Everett had caught one pass for 14 yards. The 29-year-old has recently emerged as one of the Chargers' top weapons, commanding 33 targets over his last four games, so losing him will hurt Los Angeles. Donald Parham Jr. should step up as the top tight end for Los Angeles. Everett finishes 2023 having caught 51 passes for 411 yards and three touchdowns.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (knee) exited during the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs and is officially questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had caught one pass for 14 yards. The 29-year-old has recently emerged as one of the Chargers' top weapons, commanding 33 targets over his last four games. Donald Parham Jr. will step up as the top tight end for Los Angeles until Everett is able to return.
Jan 7, 2024 4:42 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett could have a strong end to his season in a Week 18 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Everett has taken on a larger role in the second half of the season with injuries striking several LA pass catchers. With Keenan Allen (heel) likely out and Joshua Palmer (concussion) questionable at best, Everett should have another big role on Sunday afternoon. He has a solid floor and some touchdown upside, making him a solid TE1 for the final week of the season.
Jan 4, 2024 6:24 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett made four catches in a Week 17 loss to the Denver Broncos. Everett saw a team-high nine targets, making the four catches for 31 yards including a long gain of 22 yards. Everett has turned into one of the top two receiving targets on this awful version of the Chargers offense and has turned in a decently high TE floor each week. He'll wrap up the season in Week 18 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Dec 31, 2023 8:06 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett could see a few extra targets this week in a Week 17 game against the Denver Broncos. Everett has taken on a large role in the passing game in the second half of the season, and with wide receivers Keenan Allen (heel) and Joshua Palmer (concussion) both questionable to suit up at best, Everett could end up as the top receiving option for the Bolts. It's still a bad offense, possibly the leagues worst right now, but Everett has a decent floor and a little bit of upside, leaving him somewhere in the top-15 fantasy tight ends for this week's games.
Dec 28, 2023 6:05 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett made a team-high seven catches in a Week 16 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Everett tied for the team lead in targets with eight, and made the most catches with his seven. He was second on the team in receiving yards with 42. In a dilapidated Chargers offense, Everett has essentially become the WR2, and may continue in that role if Keenan Allen (heel) doesn't suit up next week against the Denver Broncos.
Dec 24, 2023 12:16 AM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett has seen his fantasy arrow pointing up lately and has a decent matchup in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Everett has been the fantasy TE13 in the past four weeks, even with Easton Stick in there for two of those games. The Bills have allowed the 13th-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends, and it's one of the few ways their defense can be exploited. Everett doesn't have a ton of upside with Stick under center, but he has a decent floor and should be in starting lineups in most 2TE formats.
Dec 21, 2023 4:38 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett made five catches in a 63-21 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15. Everett was targeted a team-high eight times, making an also team-high five catches for 41 yards. Everett remains heavily involved in the Chargers passing game, but this offense will be among the worst in the NFL to close out the season, making him a TE2 at best going forward.
Dec 15, 2023 12:55 AM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (hip) is off the injury report and good to go for Thursday night's Week 15 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Everett was limited in practice earlier in the week, but he was able to practice in full on Wednesday and will go into the game with no injury designation. With Keenan Allen (heel) ruled out, there may be a few more targets heading Everett's way, although they'll be thrown by backup quarterback Easton Stick, leaving Everett as a TE2 at best.
Dec 13, 2023 5:45 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight ends Gerald Everett (hip) and Donald Parham Jr. (shoulder) were both listed as limited participants in the team's second walkthrough practice this week on Tuesday. Both Everett and Parham should be ready to play on a short week this Thursday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. However, neither of them will be particularly attractive TE2 streamers in a good matchup now that quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) will miss the rest of the 2023 season. The 29-year-old Everett has been the starter for the Bolts at tight end when healthy, but he's been an inconsistent and touchdown-dependent TE2 option for fantasy managers in 2023 with 34 receptions for 293 yards and three touchdowns in his 11 games played.
Dec 12, 2023 6:27 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight ends Gerald Everett (hip) and Donald Parham Jr. (shoulder) were both listed as limited on Monday's estimated practice report. Everett and Parham are no stranger to the injury report this year, but their injuries this week shouldn't be serious enough to keep them from playing this Thursday evening against the Las Vegas Raiders. In the Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos, Everett caught five of his eight targets for 39 yards, while Parham hauled in one of two targets for an 11-yard gain. Everett has been a touchdown-dependent, low-end TE2 in overall half-PPR points through 14 weeks in 2023 and will now be losing more fantasy value with quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) potentially missing the rest of the regular season after fracturing the index finger on his throwing hand on Sunday.
Dec 11, 2023 8:03 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett had a solid game in a Week 14 loss to the Denver Broncos. Everett was targeted eight times, catching five passes for 39 yards. The Chargers offense could barely move the ball all game, but Everett was able to make some nice plays and came about an inch or two away from holding onto a first quarter touchdown. With Justin Herbert (finger) likely to miss time, Everett and all Chargers pass catchers will see their fantasy value dip a bit in the coming weeks.
Dec 11, 2023 12:35 AM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett could have a big game in a Week 14 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Everett has had two of his highest snap shares in the past two games and put up 18 fantasy points combined in the two weeks. The Denver defense has allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends as well as the second-most receiving yards to the position. With a limited pass-catching corps around for the Chargers due to injury, Everett should be a bottom-half TE1 this week.
Dec 7, 2023 4:34 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett made four catches in a Week 13 win over the New England Patriots. Everett was targeted five times and made the four catches for 44 yards. The catches were the second most on the team and the yards put him at third most. It was a good game for the Chargers tight end while several other pass catchers on the offense were injured or limited. Everett has the talent to be a fairly consistent fantasy TE1, but he'll need to cement a more consistent role on the offense to have weekly starting value.
Dec 3, 2023 7:43 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (shoulder) has a tough matchup coming up in a Week 13 game against the New England Patriots. Everett was on the injury report this week with a shoulder injury, but he got in a full practice each day so there's no concern about him missing Sunday's game. Everett played well in Week 12 and scored a touchdown, but he hasn't been a big part of the Chargers offense this season. With Keenan Allen (quadricep) and other injuries hitting the Chargers though, Everett could end up with a bigger role this week. He's got a decent ceiling but a low floor to go with it, leaving him somewhere near the end of the TE1 ranks.
Dec 1, 2023 6:18 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Everett was unable to play in Week 11 but returned in Week 12 to face the Baltimore Ravens after a questionable tag and caught all four of his targets for 43 yards and his third touchdown of the season in Sunday night's 20-10 loss. He's still on the Week 13 injury report, but he appears to be fine to play this weekend on the road in New England against the Patriots. The 29-year-old's return to action has taken Donald Parham Jr. off the streaming radar for the time being. Everett hasn't cleared 47 receiving yards in a game all year and will continue being a touchdown-dependent TE2 in fantasy lineups this weekend.
Nov 29, 2023 7:48 PM EST
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett scored the only Chargers touchdown in a Week 12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He ended up with four targets, making all four catches for 43 yards. His touchdown came on a three-yard pass from Justin Herbert in the fourth quarter where Everett fought for the last yard he needed to make it into the end zone. Everett has been solid with the ball in his hands this season, but hasn't been a key part of the passing game plan most weeks. He's a solid TE2 with perhaps a bit more upside than most ranked around him for next week against the New England Patriots.
