Evan Engram News
Wednesday, June 17, 8:46 AM
Across 16 games in 2025, Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram recorded 50 catches for 461 yards and one touchdown on 76 targets. It was a disappointing output for the veteran tight end, who had averaged just under eight targets per game over the previous two seasons as a member of the Jacksonville Jaguars. While Denver did not add any significant competition for Engram to its tight end room over the offseason, his target volume could be in line to fall even further in 2026. The Broncos acquired star wideout Jaylen Waddle from the Miami Dolphins, whom they will add to an already strong wide receiver corps that also includes Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant, and Marvin Mims Jr. Given that Engram is entering his age-32 season and has several players ahead of him in the pecking order for targets in Denver, a significant bounce-back in his fantasy production looks unlikely. Dynasty managers should be looking to sell Engram for whatever they can get ahead of 2026.

Theo Johnson News
Thursday, June 4, 6:19 AM
New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson caught 45 passes in 2025 for 528 yards and five touchdowns, demonstrating a clear chemistry with quarterback Jaxson Dart and finishing as the TE13 or better in six of their nine games played together. However, calls for a true year-three breakout were largely quieted when the Giants committed $26 million in guaranteed money to free agent Isaiah Likely. With Johnson having since fallen to TE40 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings, he could now be seen as a low-cost trade target with multiple paths to outperforming expectations. Head coach John Harbaugh arrives from Baltimore, where the Ravens were the only team in 2025 to run more plays out of 12-personnel than out of 11, and new offensive coordinator Matt Nagy's successful ability to run an offense through the tight end position is well documented. Johnson is only 25 years old, and in an offense proven desperate for secondary pass catchers by the recent signings of Odell Beckham Jr., JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Braxton Berrios, he could hold a legitimate role in 2026 and beyond.
