Darren Waller News
Friday, January 2, 12:55 PM
Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (groin) will be placed on Injured Reserve on Friday, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN. Waller will miss the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday versus the division-rival New England Patriots. The 33-year-old veteran came out of retirement to play for the Dolphins in 2025 and will finish with 24 catches for 283 yards and six touchdowns in only nine games played. Waller got a late start to the season as he worked his way into playing shape and also missed time with a hamstring injury. He was not the same player he was earlier in his career with the Raiders, but Waller still had plenty of red-zone prowess in his return this year. It remains to be seen if he'll attempt to return in 2026 with Miami or another organization. Greg Dulcich should be the Dolphins' top pass-catching TE in Week 18.

Dalton Schultz News
Tuesday, June 16, 8:30 AM
Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz put together a very solid season in 2025, recording 82 catches for 777 yards and three touchdowns on 106 targets across 17 games. However, there are reasons to doubt that Schultz will match his production in 2026 and beyond. For one, Schultz is highly reliant on target volume for production, as he's averaged just seven yards per target for his career. Additionally, the Texans selected tight end Marlin Klein in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft, signed veteran tight end Foster Moreau in free agency, and should get a healthier season out of tight end Cade Stover, who missed eight games with a foot injury in 2025. Houston also has a pair of up-and-coming young wide receivers in Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel. All in all, Schultz's role in Houston's passing game is likely to shrink as he enters his age-30 season. Dynasty managers should be looking to sell high on Schultz ahead of 2026.
