Who Should I Start? Nick Vannett or Greg Dulcich

Wednesday, November 1, 9:03 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers signed tight end Nick Vannett to their active roster on Wednesday. Vannett had been on the team's practice squad since the end of August but is now in line to make his first appearance for the Chargers in Week 9. Vannett will provide some depth at the position with Gerald Everett (hip) dealing with a hip injury that held him out of Week 8. Vannett has been in the NFL since being a third-round pick in 2016 and has accumulated 90 catches for 874 yards and six touchdowns over his career.

Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich (foot) was not officially activated from Injured Reserve by his 21-day deadline on Wednesday and will not play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. A hamstring injury kept Dulcich out for the vast majority of his second NFL season, although a foot injury was ultimately what prevented him from making a late-season return. The 23-year-old caught three of his four targets for 25 yards in the two games he appeared in this year. Adam Trautman served as Denver's top pass-catching tight end all year with Dulcich sidelined, but he wasn't a realistic weekly starting option. Dulcich has some intrigue as a pass-catcher, but he's going to need to stay on the field to stay in Denver's long-term plans heading into the 2024 season.
