Elijah Arroyo News
Sunday, June 7, 11:48 AM
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Seattle Seahawks tight end Elijah Arroyo recorded just 15 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets across 13 games as a rookie. Arroyo flashed upside as a pass-catcher, but his path to playing time was largely blocked by fellow Seahawks tight end AJ Barner. Entering 2026, Barner remains in place as the nominal TE1 in Seattle, and veteran tight end Eric Saubert will likely continue to play a role in the offense as a blocker. However, Arroyo recorded 590 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in his final collegiate season at Miami and remains the highest-ceiling receiving tight end in Seattle. The Seahawks may also be forced to throw the ball a bit more in 2026 after finishing the 2025 season with the fourth-fewest pass attempts (481) in the NFL, which would open up more opportunities for all of the team's pass-catchers. Arroyo's profile carries risk, but he could be a worthy buy-low candidate for dynasty managers after his underwhelming rookie campaign.

Eli Stowers News
Thursday, June 11, 6:19 AM
Philadelphia Eagles rookie second-round tight end Eli Stowers (leg) had a sleeve on his right leg and wasn't doing much during mandatory minicamp practice on Wednesday, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Stowers' injury most likely isn't very serious, but the Eagles will ease him in during offseason workouts. We'd be surprised if he isn't ready for the start of training camp at the end of next month. The 23-year-old from Vanderbilt will most likely work for a backup role behind Dallas Goedert as he heads into his first season in the NFL with the Eagles. Stowers was converted from a quarterback to a TE in college, so he has plenty of development to do as a pass-catcher at 6-foot-4 and 239 pounds. Although Stowers is unlikely to have much of a role in Philly in 2026 behind Goedert, he has intriguing long-term value in dynasty/keeper leagues due to his above-average athleticism. In his last two collegiate seasons at Vanderbilt, Stowers had 111 total receptions for 1,407 yards and nine touchdowns in 25 games played.
