Who Should I Start? Juwan Johnson or Tyler Warren

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (groin) was wearing a jersey but wasn't in full pads for Tuesday's training camp practice as he continues to be limited, according to Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football. Johnson is dealing with a minor groin injury that he sustained last week in practice, but he might be held out of the team's first preseason game this Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers as a precaution. It makes more sense for the Saints to be careful with the 28-year-old with both tight ends Taysom Hill (knee) and Foster Moreau (knee) unlikely to be ready for the start of the 2025 regular season. While Johnson does have a clear path to TE1 duties for the Saints this year, he should go undrafted in 12-team fantasy leagues with all the uncertainty surrounding who the team's quarterback will be.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren caught all three of his targets for 40 yards in a 24-16 preseason loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday. Warren got off to a hot start in the game, catching all three of his passes in the first quarter, including a 23-yard reception down the middle of the field to help set the Colts up for a 33-yard field goal at the end of the quarter. He came as advertised after the Colts used the 14th overall pick on Warren in the 2025 NFL draft, hauling in all three of his targets and showing physicality as a runner after the catch. While the Colts' quarterback situation is a bit concerning, Warren should settle in as a solid TE2 in fantasy in his rookie year. He will now gear up to face off against the Green Bay Packers in his team's second preseason contest, which is scheduled for next Saturday.
