Who Should I Start? Harrison Bryant or Robbie Ouzts

Former Cleveland Browns and Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant is signing a one-year deal worth up to $2 million with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Bryant has appeared in 78 NFL contests (33 starts) and has collected 98 receptions for 877 yards and 10 touchdowns in five NFL seasons. Philadelphia is reportedly shopping veteran tight end Dallas Goedert this offseason, so Bryant and Grant Calcaterra could find themselves as the lead tight ends in Philadelphia, barring the team investing in an early pick at the position. However, it would be a surprise if Bryant was a significant fantasy football contributor in 2025.

The Seattle Seahawks are converting rookie fifth-round tight end Robbie Ouzts to a 274-pound fullback as part of their vision for a more physical running game under new offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, according to ESPN's Brady Henderson. Ouzts will be competing with Brady Russell, who is also making the transition from tight end to fullback this offseason. He worked mostly as a blocker during his four-year college career at Alabama, so it should be a pretty natural transition for Ouzts in Seattle. Ouzts obviously won't be on the fantasy radar at all as a blocker if he's on the field regularly, but this news is good news for the Seahawks' ground attack and starting running back Kenneth Walker III and backup Zach Charbonnet. In 17 games last year, Seattle averaged just 95.7 rushing yards per game, which ranked as the fifth-fewest in the NFL.
