Davis Allen Expected to Return "Within the Next Week"

Tuesday, August 18, 6:00 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that tight end Davis Allen (quadriceps) is expected to return to practice "within the next week," per Stu Jackson of therams.com. Jackson also reports that Allen is expected to be ready for Week 1. Across 17 games with Los Angeles in 2025, Allen recorded 24 catches for 208 yards and three touchdowns on 33 targets. While he's unlikely to provide fantasy-relevant production himself, Allen's presence further complicates the Rams' crowded tight end room for fantasy managers. In addition to Allen, Los Angeles has veterans Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee, 2025 second-round pick Terrance Ferguson, and 2026 second-round pick Max Klare as other tight ends on its roster. While the Rams use multiple tight end personnel groupings at one of the highest rates in the league, their depth at the position makes it hard for fantasy managers to rely on any one tight end in Los Angeles for consistent production.

Erick All Jr. to Miss Entire 2025 Season

Friday, July 25, 1:30 PM

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Erick All Jr. (knee) is set to miss the entire 2025 season after undergoing a second surgery on his ACL this offseason, according to James Rapien of BengalsTalk.com. All was seen at training camp practice on Thursday walking around with a brace on his right knee. The 24-year-old played in just seven games in his final season in college due to a torn ACL, and he tore the ACL in the same knee last year as well. The Iowa product appeared in nine games (six starts) with the Bengals in his rookie season before injuring his knee and caught 20 of 22 targets for 158 yards and no touchdowns. It's been a tough go for All the last two years, but he's hoping to come back strong in 2026. With All out for all of this year, it will mean more work for both Mike Gesicki and Drew Sample.
