Free-agent tight end Chris Manhertz is signing with the New York Giants, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The Giants have Darren Waller and Daniel Bellinger on the roster and signed former Philadelphia Eagles tight end Jack Stoll this week, so the position is getting crowded behind Waller. Manhertz has caught just 26 passes for 271 yards and two touchdowns in his eight-year career with the Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Denver Broncos, so he will not be on the fantasy radar in 2024. He is primarily a blocking tight end, and he could be buried on the depth chart.

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant had a forgettable fantasy outing in Week 8 against the Buffalo Bills. After back-to-back games with at least 63 receiving yards, Fant only caught three passes for 22 yards. The Seahawks offense severely struggled in the absence of DK Metcalf (knee). Still, the output should not have been as bad as it was and Fant was in a great position to see more targets. Perhaps this offense needs Metcalf in the lineup in order for the other skill-position players to produce in fantasy. No one on the Seahawks had a fantasy day to write home about. Fant has been difficult to assess in 2024. He has scored single-digit fantasy points in five of his eight games. The consistency is nowhere near where you can trust him on a weekly. For now, he is a solid bench stash and a potential matchup play.
