Who Should I Start? Kylen Granson or Tommy Tremble

The Philadelphia Eagles have signed free-agent tight end Kylen Granson on Friday. The two sides have agreed on a one-year deal for an undisclosed amount of money. Granson is a former fourth-round pick of the Indianapolis Colts. He has spent each of the last four seasons in Indy, but was never able to become a full-time starter. Last season, Granson hauled in 14 receptions for 182 yards and zero touchdowns across 17 games (six starts) with the Colts. The expectation is that Granson will land behind Dallas Goedert and Grant Calcaterra on the depth chart. Fantasy managers are safe to avoid Granson in fantasy leagues while Goedert is healthy.

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble (back) is not expected to return by training camp at the end of July after having back surgery, according to head coach Dave Canales. Barring a setback, the team is hoping to get Tremble back sometime during the preseason. The Panthers are going to bring the 25-year-old along slowly after he had a back procedure in the middle of May. With Tremble sidelined, Ja'Tavion Sanders and rookie fifth-rounder Mitchell Evans will see more reps in OTAs and mandatory minicamp this month. When healthy, Tremble profiles as more of a blocking tight end, which doesn't make him much of an option in fantasy leagues. The former third-rounder (83rd overall) in 2021 out of Notre Dame matched his career-high with 23 catches last year for a career-high 234 yards and two touchdowns in 12 games (11 starts).
