Chris Manhertz News
Friday, March 15, 3:42 PM
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.

Seydou Traore News
Saturday, April 25, 12:50 PM
The Miami Dolphins have selected Mississippi State tight end Seydou Traore with the 180th overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Traore was born in France but grew up in London, where he joined the NFL Academy as part of the league's International Pathway Program. He began his collegiate career at Arkansas State before transferring first to Colorado and then immediately to Mississippi State, forcing him to sit out the 2023 season as a double transfer. While he never topped his 49 receptions or 628 yards as a sophomore at Arkansas State, he scored a career-high five touchdowns in 2025. Still relatively new to the sport, Traore offers plus-athleticism and could find opportunities to find the field on a Dolphins offense that is reshaping itself on the fly. Miami spent a third-round pick on Ohio State tight end Will Kacmarek, who profiles more as an inline blocker, and they return fifth-year veteran Greg Dulcich after he caught 26 passes with the team in 2025.
