Jonnu Smith News
Wednesday, March 4, 2:14 PM
The Pittsburgh Steelers are releasing tight end Jonnu Smith on Wednesday, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The move will save the Steelers $7 million against the salary cap, and Smith will now become an unrestricted free agent. Smith, 30, was a first-time Pro Bowler in 2024 with the Miami Dolphins, putting up career-highs in catches (88), targets (111), receiving yards (884), and touchdowns (eight) in 17 games. He came crashing back down to Earth in 2025 with Pittsburgh while sharing targets with Pat Freiermuth, though, as he finished with only 38 receptions for 222 yards and two touchdowns on 54 targets in 17 regular-season games. Smith may never be as good as he was in 2024 in Miami, but a move out of the Steel City is a good thing for his fantasy value going into the 2026 campaign. Smith's departure is also great news for Freiermuth's ceiling.

Daniel Bellinger News
Monday, March 9, 4:53 PM
The Tennessee Titans signed former New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger to an undisclosed deal on Monday, sources told Dianna Russini of The Athletic. The move reunites him with former head coach Brian Daboll, who is now the offensive coordinator in Tennessee. The 25-year-old is expected to help replace Chig Okonkwo, who is most likely departing in free agency. Second-year tight end Gunnar Helm is expected to move into the top pass-catching tight end role in Tennessee, with Bellinger likely being the No. 2. In his four years with the Giants and Daboll, Bellinger had 88 catches for 934 yards and four touchdowns in 62 regular-season games. The former fourth-rounder in 2022 out of San Diego State had a career-best 286 receiving yards on 19 catches last year, scoring only twice in 16 games. Unless Helm misses time due to injury in 2026, Bellinger should be on the waiver wire in standard 12-team leagues.
