Evan Engram Drawing Ample Targets Early in Training Camp

Friday, July 31, 9:58 AM

Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports reports that Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram is having a day in training camp practice on Friday, as he's been targeted multiple times with multiple catches during team drills, including a 50-yard bomb from quarterback Jarrett Stidham. Stevens adds that Davis Webb as the team's new play-caller "seems to be benefiting him a ton." The Athletic's Nick Kosmider writes that Engram has been "the standout" during the team's first 11-on-11 period in camp. The 31-year-old veteran TE also had a strong showing during mandatory minicamp last month, perhaps setting himself up to be a sleeper at the position in fantasy football drafts in 2026. Engram was a disappointment last year in his first year in Denver after head coach Sean Payton talked him up all offseason, ultimately finishing with a 50-461-1 line in 16 regular-season games. The Broncos have receiver Jaylen Waddle now, though, which could totally transform their offense and open up space for Engram to operate. RotoBaller has Engram ranked as only the TE34, but if he continues to impress during camp and gain the trust of Webb as a play-caller, his ADP could rise quickly as a TE2.

Juwan Johnson Confident About Saints Offense for 2026

Saturday, August 1, 7:00 AM

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson recently appeared on 'The Insiders' and spoke of the confidence and camaraderie the team played with late in the 2025 season, and he believes that mindset will carry into 2026. He also compared his path to that of Taysom Hill, with whom he shared a locker room for the past six seasons, and with Hill recently announcing he would not be returning to the Saints, Johnson knows he will need to become more of a leader and locker room presence in year seven. Johnson was the TE10 in 2025, and with a chance to turn in similar production in Kellen Moore's ascending up-tempo offense, he represents great potential value as a closing-round flier in 2026 drafts, currently ranked as RotoBaller's TE21.
