David Njoku News
Saturday, August 22, 9:15 AM
Los Angeles Chargers tight end David Njoku saw no targets in his limited action in Thursday's 41-17 preseason loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Njoku shared the field with fellow tight end Charlie Kolar in 12-personnel sets during the first few drives of the game. After a handful of plays, Njoku was removed from the game with other starters. Njoku may not have seen a target in his limited action, but he played with the first-team offense and only one series with backup quarterback Trey Lance. His usage could point towards a key role in the offense during the regular season. Managers should continue to monitor the Chargers' tight end room before investing in Njoku. He is currently being drafted outside the top 20 tight ends in fantasy but has interesting upside.

Tyler Warren News
Tuesday, August 25, 7:38 AM
Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) could be held out of training camp practice this week while he recovers from a groin injury that he suffered last week, according to Mike Chappell of FOX 59. Warren did not play in the team's second preseason game on Saturday against the Atlanta Falcons after tweaking his groin in practice last Wednesday, but the Colts aren't too worried that the 24-year-old won't be available for the Week 1 regular-season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. The Colts are not taking any chances with one of the best pass-catching tight ends in the league, especially with receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) still on the Physically Unable to Perform list. Warren's injury is worth monitoring as the regular season approaches, but as of now, it should not dissuade fantasy managers from selecting him as a top-five player at the TE position. After being taken 14th overall last year out of Penn State, Warren caught 76 passes for 817 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games to finish as the TE6 in half-PPR scoring.
