Jonnu Smith Doing Individual Work at Training Camp

Friday, July 25, 5:50 PM

Brooke Pryor of ESPN reports that Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith (undisclosed) was working in individual periods at training camp on Friday but did not work with the position group for the second wave of individual periods, which is basically the same participation level that he had on Thursday. Head coach Mike Tomlin said that Smith is day-to-day with an unspecified injury that doesn't sound very serious. The 29-year-old had a career year in 2024 with the Miami Dolphins, catching 88 passes on 111 targets for 884 yards and eight touchdowns in 17 games (six starts), and now he'll reunite with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, who he's played for in Tennessee and Atlanta. Fantasy managers are going to need to downgrade Jonnu in fantasy this year, though, as he will probably struggle to find weekly value while sharing targets with Pat Freiermuth.

Mark Andrews Still a Key Piece in Ravens Offense

Saturday, July 12, 1:31 PM

There was some speculation this offseason that the Baltimore Ravens might be moving on from tight end Mark Andrews after his disappointing outing in the playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills in the divisional round. However, Andrews is still on the roster and is in the TE mix for the Ravens alongside Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar with training camp right around the corner. All three of Andrews, Likely and Kolar are scheduled to be free agents in 2026, so they should all be highly motivated, writes The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec. Andrews should continue to have a key role in the offense, but the addition of veteran receiver DeAndre Hopkins could mean that targets will be tougher to come by in an offense that remains run-first. The 29-year-old looked done early in 2024 before scoring 11 TDs in a 12-game span. Likely is a problem for sure, but as long as Andrews stays healthy, he should be in play as a midrange TE1 in fantasy.
