Who Should I Start? Kyle Rudolph or Harrison Bryant

Monday, September 4, 11:06 AM

Two-time Pro Bowl tight end Kyle Rudolph announced on Monday that he will officially retire as a member of the Minnesota Vikings. Rudolph makes the decision after playing 12 seasons in the NFL. Originally a second-round pick of the Vikings in 2011 out of Notre Dame, Rudolph played the first 10 seasons of his career in Minnesota before joining the New York Giants in 2021 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year. He'll finish with 482 career receptions on 709 targets for 4,773 yards and 50 touchdowns in 165 games (145 starts). In just nine games (zero starts) for Tampa in 2022, the 33-year-old had three catches for 28 yards and one touchdown. Both of his Pro Bowl campaigns came in Minnesota -- in 2012 and in 2017.

Former Cleveland Browns and Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant is signing a one-year deal worth up to $2 million with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Bryant has appeared in 78 NFL contests (33 starts) and has collected 98 receptions for 877 yards and 10 touchdowns in five NFL seasons. Philadelphia is reportedly shopping veteran tight end Dallas Goedert this offseason, so Bryant and Grant Calcaterra could find themselves as the lead tight ends in Philadelphia, barring the team investing in an early pick at the position. However, it would be a surprise if Bryant was a significant fantasy football contributor in 2025.
