Julian Hill News
Wednesday, March 11, 4:54 PM
The New England Patriots agreed to terms on an undisclosed deal with free-agent tight end Julian Hill on Wednesday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Hill will stay in the AFC East and will join the division-rival Patriots after spending the first three years of his career with the Miami Dolphins, where he caught a total of 33 passes for 288 yards and no touchdowns on 48 targets over 45 games (26 starts). The former undrafted free agent out of Campbell University had career-highs in catches (15), targets (20), and receiving yards (140) in 14 games for the Dolphins in 2025. The 25-year-old won't have any real fantasy appeal going into next season in Boston, but he'll help fill a blocking role behind starter Hunter Henry to help make up for the loss of Austin Hooper, who signed with the Atlanta Falcons in free agency.

Gunnar Helm News
Wednesday, March 25, 5:44 PM
A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans tight end Gunnar Helm recorded 44 receptions for 357 yards and two touchdowns on 55 targets. While the 23-year-old's numbers may not leap off the page, he established himself as a relatively steady contributor in a Titans offense that was starved for playmakers. Heading into 2026, Helm looks like the clear lead tight end in Tennessee after the team's decision to let former tight end Chig Okonkwo walk in free agency. In 2025, Helm and Okonkwo combined for 100 receptions, 917 receiving yards, and six touchdowns on 134 targets. While Helm will not absorb all of Okonkwo's production, he has a clear pathway to fantasy upside. In dynasty formats, fantasy managers may want to consider buying low on Helm ahead of the 2026 season.
