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.

Nate Boerkircher News
Friday, April 24, 4:48 PM
The Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Texas A&M tight end prospect Nate Boerkircher with the 56th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. This was the Jaguars' first selection of the draft, and they spent it on a tight end despite already having Brenton Strange on their roster. We shouldn't be too surprised by the addition, though, as pre-draft reporting indicated that the Jaguars wanted to come out of the draft with an impact tight end to complement Strange on offense. After four years with Nebraska, Boerkircher transferred to A&M for the 2025 season and ultimately tallied 19 catches, 198 yards, and three touchdowns. Those are underwhelming receiving metrics, and while the Jaguars do plan to get him more involved in the passing game, he's a blocker first and foremost. He posted a 72.2 PFF grade in run blocking last season. Ranked as the consensus #162 prospect in the draft according to NFLMockDraftDatabase.com, some might say this was a bit of a reach for Jaguars general manager James Gladstone. The fantasy rankings would tend to agree, as Boerkircher falls outside the top 85 tight ends in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.
