Lawrence Cager News
Wednesday, August 7, 1:51 PM
The New York Giants have tons of opportunity at the tight end position this year after Darren Waller's retirement. They are looking to fill the void left by Waller with some combination of Daniel Bellinger, Lawrence Cager (hamstring) and rookie Theo Johnson. Bellinger is likely to be the starter, but Cager or Johnson are likely to be the team's primary pass-catching tight end. Cager started out training camp strong, and head coach Brian Daboll called him one of the standouts in the spring, but a hamstring injury has limited him recently. Johnson has returned after starting camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list with a hip problem. ESPN's Jordan Raanan says it's anyone's job to win this summer. None of the trio of TE options in New York are particularly attractive from a fantasy perspective, but Johnson probably has the most upside if he has a big enough role.

Lucas Krull News
Wednesday, March 11, 4:48 PM
The Denver Broncos re-signed tight end Lucas Krull to an undisclosed one-year deal on Wednesday, according to Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette. Krull just wrapped his fourth year in the NFL and his second with the Broncos in 2025 by catching only two passes for 15 yards on four targets in three games played due to a foot injury that caused him to miss the majority of the season. The 27-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Pittsburgh had his best year in 2024 with Denver, catching 19 of his 23 targets for 152 yards and no touchdowns in 13 games (two starts). Krull could be the Broncos' No. 4 tight end entering the 2026 season this fall, behind Evan Engram, Adam Trautman, and Nate Adkins, who is a restricted free agent. He will be miles from fantasy relevance when drafts kick off later this year.
