Austin Hooper Heading Back to Atlanta

Monday, March 9, 9:40 AM

Free-agent tight end Austin Hooper is signing a one-year, $3.25 million deal with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Hooper was originally drafted by Atlanta in the third round in 2016 out of Stanford. The 31-year-old veteran spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Falcons and was a Pro Bowler with them in 2018 and 2019. He then bounced around with the Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans, Las Vegas Raiders, and New England Patriots. Hooper hasn't been as productive as he was in his final two seasons in Atlanta, and in his return, he'll be a backup to TE Kyle Pitts Sr. In 16 regular-season games (six starts) for the Patriots last year, Hooper had just 21 catches for 263 yards and two touchdowns. Unless Pitts is traded or injured in 2026, Hooper won't be on the fantasy radar in redraft leagues this fall.

Foster Moreau News

Foster Moreau a DFS Punt Play vs. Jacksonville

Saturday, October 17, 3:27 AM

Houston Texans tight end Foster Moreau has exactly two catches in four of his five games this season and did get into the end zone in Week 3 against the Colts. Moreau is the team's second tight end behind Dalton Schultz, and he doesn't get enough consistent work to be a regular fantasy option. He's ranked as only the No. 41 tight end in RotoBaller's Week 6 rankings. However, if you're starting your Sunday with a single-game DFS lineup, he does bring enough upside to be a viable bargain play since he does get a few opportunities in the team's game plan in most matchups.
