Eagles Interested in David Njoku

Tuesday, March 3, 7:11 AM

The Philadelphia Eagles are interested in Cleveland Browns impending free-agent tight end David Njoku, league sources told Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94WIP.com. Dallas Goedert will also be a free agent soon, and Njoku would give the Eagles one of the best athletes in the league and would finally give Njoku an elite, consistent quarterback to play with for the first time in his career, writes Shorr-Parks. The 29-year-old former first-rounder in 2017 out of the University of Miami took a big step back in 2025 with the emergence of rookie TE Harold Fannin Jr. in Cleveland. Njoku had just 33 catches for 293 yards and four touchdowns on 48 targets in 12 games played. His fantasy football stock is obviously way down, but a bounce back would be expected if he were to join the Eagles as their top pass-catching tight end. It's something to keep an eye on in free agency.

Noah Fant Will Play in Week 17

Sunday, December 28, 12:03 PM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant (ankle) is officially active on Sunday to face the visiting Arizona Cardinals in Week 17. Fant will return to action this weekend in a meaningless game after missing last week's blowout win over the Miami Dolphins due to an ankle injury. Even in a plus matchup against the Cardinals, fantasy managers should have much better TE2 streaming options to choose from in Week 17, even in deeper leagues. The 28-year-old Fant just won't have enough opportunities while continuing to work behind Mike Gesicki at the position in Cincy. Fant has a total of 33 catches for 283 yards and three touchdowns on 39 targets in 13 games (six starts) in his first year with the Bengals. He hasn't had more than one catch in a game since Nov. 16, and he has not gone over 44 receiving yards in a single contest in 2025.
