Blake Whiteheart Returns to the Browns

Monday, March 23, 1:58 PM

The Cleveland Browns re-signed tight end Blake Whiteheart to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. The deal is most likely for just one season, bringing Whiteheart back for his third year in Cleveland. The 26-year-old has not been on the fantasy football radar in his three seasons in the NFL, catching just eight of 15 targets for 55 yards and one touchdown in 30 games (six starts). He went undrafted out of Wake Forest before debuting in the NFL in 2023 with the Arizona Cardinals. Whiteheart had a career-high six catches for 51 yards and his only touchdown in 11 games (two starts) in his first year in Cleveland in 2024. He will return to block on offense while also contributing on special teams. David Njoku isn't going to return in free agency, but Harold Fannin Jr. will be the Browns' unquestioned top pass-catching TE in 2026 after his impressive rookie campaign.

New England Patriots tight end Eli Raridon (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, according to Taylor Kyles. It's a second injury concern in as many weeks for the rookie, who missed Week 3 against Jacksonville with a thigh injury. Raridon was limited in all three practices leading into Sunday and was active after carrying a questionable designation. He entered the game with two catches for 32 yards and a touchdown through his first two NFL appearances.
