George Kittle News
Wednesday, May 27, 1:21 PM
Despite tearing his Achilles tendon in the postseason back in January, San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (Achilles) is holding out hope that he'll be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in Australia against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire. Making it more difficult for Kittle is the fact that the team will have to leave much earlier than they would for a regular road game. Kittle admitted it will be a "little bit difficult" to be active for Week 1 due to the flight to Australia. Though the 32-year-old seven-time Pro Bowler only played in 11 regular-season games in 2025 due to injuries, he still caught 57 passes for 628 yards and seven touchdowns to finish as a top-15 TE in half-PPR fantasy scoring. Kittle's Achilles tear was considered a best-case scenario, but it doesn't mean he won't miss a couple of weeks early on in 2026. For that reason and because of ongoing durability questions, Kittle has fallen outside of RotoBaller's top-10 fantasy TEs going into the upcoming season.

Ben Sinnott News
Thursday, June 4, 9:23 AM
Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott remains the No. 2 option on the depth chart, which hurts his fantasy outlook in dynasty leagues. Sinnott had patiently waited for an opportunity to handle more volume while he was behind Zach Ertz, catching just 16 passes for 142 yards and two touchdowns over his first two NFL seasons. Just as it seemed like he was trending up with Ertz hitting free agency this offseason, the Commanders brought in new competition in the form of Chig Okonkwo. Given that Okonkwo is pretty safely penciled into the No. 1 tight end role, Sinnott will remain the backup option. That doesn't bode well for his fantasy value, especially since the Commanders ranked right near the league median in terms of 12 personnel usage last year. Sinnott has fallen to TE55 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings, which means he can be dropped in most leagues.
