Austin Hooper News
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.

Terrance Ferguson News
Wednesday, June 3, 8:42 AM
Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson faces even more competition in 2026 than he did last season, but the opportunity still exists for him to separate himself as the organization's tight end of the future. In addition to returning veterans Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee, the Rams spent a second-round pick on Ohio State tight end prospect Max Klare. While that's some serious draft capital, we can't discount the late-season emergence that Ferguson displayed last year. The Oregon product had five catches, 87 yards, and two touchdowns over his final two games as a rookie in 2025, and he's a potential breakout candidate heading into Year 2. For what it's worth, the expert rankers agree. Despite the addition of Klare, Ferguson still ranks as the overall TE29 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.
