Adam Trautman News
Sunday, March 8, 4:11 PM
The Denver Broncos and tight end Adam Trautman agreed to an undisclosed three-year deal on Sunday to keep him off the open market next week, according to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Trautman will stick around in Denver in 2026 for his third year with the team after also playing for head coach Sean Payton with the New Orleans Saints in the first three years of his NFL career. The 29-year-old former third-rounder by the Saints in 2020 out of Dayton will not be on the fantasy radar again this fall after catching 20 passes for 195 yards and one touchdown on 23 targets in 17 regular-season games for the Broncos in 2025. Trautman has provided Denver with valuable tight end depth, but he's caught only 55 passes on 80 targets for 587 yards and six touchdowns in his 51 games with the team over three seasons.

Mason Taylor News
Wednesday, September 9, 9:20 AM
New York Jets second-year tight end Mason Taylor was listed as the team's No. 1 tight end on their first unofficial depth chart going into the Week 1 regular-season opener this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Brian Costello of the New York Post. It is no surprise that Taylor is considered the Jets' No. 1 tight end entering the 2026 season, as rookie first-rounder Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) missed nearly all of training camp and the entire preseason after having a setback following hernia surgery. Sadiq is eventually expected to be New York's best pass-catching, downfield weapon, but for now, Taylor will have more fantasy upside in the short term. Sadiq is on track to suit up in Week 1, but the Jets will be easing him in, so he will not be a recommended fantasy starter in his NFL debut. The 22-year-old Taylor is a hard sell for starting lineups in Week 1 as well, and fantasy managers are probably better off looking elsewhere for their TE to kick off the season. Taylor is not currently rostered in any Yahoo leagues.
