Dawson Knox News
Tuesday, March 10, 7:39 AM
The Buffalo Bills and Pro Bowl tight end Dawson Knox agreed to a new, undisclosed three-year contract on Tuesday, sources told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Knox was a Pro Bowler for the first time in his career back in 2022, when he caught 48 of 65 targets for 517 yards and six touchdowns in 15 starts. The 29-year-old has been much less intriguing for fantasy football purposes since the Bills drafted Dalton Kincaid in the first round in 2023. In the last three seasons with Knox sharing playing time with Kincaid, the 29-year-old has totaled 80 receptions on 118 targets for 914 yards and seven total touchdowns in 45 games (36 starts). Knox still has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Josh Allen and is a key red-zone asset in the passing game, but unless Kincaid misses time with an injury in 2026, Knox will merely be a touchdown-dependent TE2 with limited upside.

Juwan Johnson News
Friday, March 6, 6:36 AM
The New Orleans Saints restructured tight end Juwan Johnson's contract on Friday to free up $6.29 million in salary cap space for the 2026 season, according to Katherine Terrell of ESPN. The Saints converted part of Johnson's base salary into a signing bonus. In the first season with Kellen Moore as the head coach in New Orleans, Johnson had career-highs in catches (77), targets (102), and receiving yards (889) while scoring three times in 17 games in his sixth year in the league. The 29-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Penn State showed nice chemistry with young quarterback Tyler Shough last year, and he should enter 2026 fantasy football drafts this fall as a decent low-end TE1 option with a strong floor if you decide to wait at the position.
