The Seattle Seahawks signed veteran free-agent tight end Eric Saubert to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to Seahawks.com's John Boyle. Saubert, originally a fifth-round selection (174th overall) by the Atlanta Falcons in 2017 out of Drake, will now join his eighth NFL team as he heads into his ninth year in the league. The 30-year-old spent last year with the San Francisco 49ers, where he caught 11 of 14 targets for 97 yards and one touchdown in 17 games (three starts). Saubert will remain in the NFC West and will serve as a backup behind Noah Fant and A.J. Barner in Seattle, leaving him virtually no fantasy appeal. Barring injuries to Fant and Barner, expect Saubert to mostly factor in on special teams. His best season came back in 2022 with the Denver Broncos, when he caught 15 of 24 targets for 148 yards and one touchdown in 17 games (six starts).

The Los Angeles Chargers signed free-agent tight end Stephen Anderson to their practice squad and released defensive back Mark Webb Jr. from the practice squad in a corresponding move. The move comes as the Chargers look to add depth at the position heading into a Week 11 contest against the Green Bay Packers with both Gerald Everett (back) and Donald Parham Jr. (hip) banged up. Neither player was able to practice on Wednesday and they could both be in danger of sitting out this weekend. If one or both of Everett and Parham are limited or out against Green Bay, the Chargers would be forced to give Stone Smartt or Nick Vannett more playing time. Anderson has yet to play in a game in 2023. He has 63 catches for 715 yards and three touchdowns in six NFL seasons and spent 2019-21 with the Chargers.
