New York Giants tight end Darren Waller announced his retirement on Sunday. There was talk about this, so the news isn't surprising to many. The 2015 sixth-round pick spent his first two seasons in Baltimore before spending five seasons with Oakland/Las Vegas. It was with the Raiders where he made a name for himself, posting back-to-back 1,000-yard campaigns and becoming widely known as one of the NFL's top tight ends. Unfortunately, Waller battled injuries over the years, and he finished his final season in the league with the Giants by amassing only 552 yards and a touchdown off 52 catches. But with Waller now out of the equation, Daniel Bellinger and rookie Theo Johnson are the favorites to fill the void at the position moving ahead, with both men likely battling throughout training camp for the right to sit atop the depth chart.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 8 according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Goedert will now miss his second straight game since leaving Week 6 early due to a hamstring injury. The 29-year-old was unable to participate in any team practices this week. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression next week as he sets his sight on returning in Week 9 to face the Jacksonville Jaguars. As a result, No. 2 tight end Grant Calcaterra will be at the top of the depth chart once again. He is best to fade in all formats as he caught just one pass serving as the starter last weekend.
