Who Should I Start? Eric Saubert or Stephen Sullivan

Monday, March 24, 8:25 PM

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).

Carolina Panthers tight ends Tommy Tremble (hip) and Stephen Sullivan (shoulder) are active for Week 14 versus the New Orleans Saints. Both players had been listed as questionable. Neither player is on the fantasy radar this week given their consistently small roles within the struggling Panthers offense. The same goes for Ian Thomas, who is also healthy.
