Charlie Kolar News
Saturday, August 22, 9:05 AM
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Charlie Kolar caught his lone target in Thursday's 41-17 preseason loss to the San Francisco 49ers. His catch was the only completion Justin Herbert had that went for nine yards. Kolar saw limited action in his Chargers debut and was removed from the game with most of the starters. The 27-year-old has had a strong camp so far, and his limited action could signify a key role in the Chargers offense. If Kolar becomes that pass-catching tight end, he is going too late in fantasy drafts and will have a good opportunity to outperform his ADP. Kolar is a sneaky TE2 option with upside for managers to target in deeper leagues late in drafts.

Marlin Klein News
Friday, April 24, 5:02 PM
The Houston Texans have selected University of Michigan tight end Marlin Klein with the 59th overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft. Across 11 games with the Wolverines in 2025, Klein recorded 24 receptions for 248 yards and one touchdown. While Klein's collegiate numbers don't stand out, he's regarded as a high-upside developmental prospect. Klein won't necessarily be expected to contribute right away in Houston, as the Texans have Dalton Schultz and Cade Stover atop their tight end depth chart. As a result, Klein has more fantasy appeal in dynasty formats than redraft leagues for 2026.
