Ravens Agree to Terms With Durham Smythe

Wednesday, March 11, 12:32 PM

The Baltimore Ravens agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with free-agent tight end Durham Smythe on Wednesday, sources told Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic. Smythe will likely be the blocking replacement at the position for Charlie Kolar, who left in free agency this week to join the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old veteran will reunite with new Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle after being coached by him with the Chicago Bears in 2025. The former fourth-round pick by the Miami Dolphins in 2018 out of Notre Dame won't be anywhere near the fantasy radar in any format going into next season. Smythe had a career-low four catches on six targets for 25 yards in 17 regular-season games with the Bears last year, and he has a measly 136 receptions for 1,253 yards and three touchdowns in his eight-year NFL career.

Eagles to Bring Back Grant Calcaterra

Tuesday, March 10, 6:29 PM

The Philadelphia Eagles are re-signing tight end Grant Calcaterra to a one-year deal, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Philadelphia entered this offseason with its top three tight ends all slated to hit unrestricted free agency. While Dallas Goedert and Kylen Granson remain unsigned, Philadelphia at least brought back one key player at the position in Calcaterra. They also made an external move, signing ex-Jaguars blocking tight end Johnny Mundt. There's still plenty of offseason remaining for Philadelphia to strengthen the position group, and we can't rule out a Goedert return. As it stands at this very second, though, Calcaterra projects as the Eagles' No. 1 tight end. The 27-year-old might not be ready to make that jump after he caught just nine passes for 76 yards and a touchdown in 2025. On a more positive note, he did have 24 catches, 298 yards, and one touchdown back in 2024. He fits best as a backup tight end who can make an occasional spot start here or there, so we wouldn't be surprised to see the Eagles bring back Goedert or pursue a different No. 1 tight end via free agency, trade, or the NFL Draft.
