Johnny Mundt News
Tuesday, March 10, 6:03 PM
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed tight end Johnny Mundt to a one-year deal, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Mundt is primarily known for his blocking, as he caught just nine passes and scored zero touchdowns across 16 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. Released by the Jaguars last week, Mundt possesses nine years of NFL experience with stops in Los Angeles (Rams), Minnesota, and Jacksonville. He'll offer much-needed depth for the Eagles, who entered this offseason with their top three tight ends slated for free agency. Philadelphia already re-signed Grant Calcaterra, but Dallas Goedert and Kylen Granson are still unrestricted free agents. If neither Goedert nor Granson returns, Mundt would slot in as the team's No. 2 tight end, at least for the time being. Even so, his proficiency as a blocker limits his receiving upside and keeps him off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

Darnell Washington News
Saturday, April 11, 8:39 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington should take over exclusive responsibility of the No. 2 spot on the depth chart behind Pat Freiermuth, but his lack of ties to the new coaching staff could complicate the situation. Washington was drafted by former head coach Mike Tomlin, and he had the best season of his young career in 2025 under offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Both Tomlin and Smith are gone, being replaced by Mike McCarthy and Brian Angelichio. That's not to say that McCarthy and Angelichio won't utilize Washington; the Steelers' lack of tight end moves this offseason suggests they're satisfied with the position. However, the new staff has no attachment to Washington, and they could opt to use him less than Smith did in 2025, when he caught 31 passes for 364 yards and one touchdown. That's just one possibility amidst a large range of possible outcomes, so fantasy managers shouldn't necessarily panic. He's a speculative hold in most dynasty leagues at the moment.
