Noah Fant Scores For First Time In Two Seasons

Sunday, January 5, 8:19 PM

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant scored his first touchdown since 2022 in a Week 18 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Fant's touchdown was a flipping effort at the goal line that put the Seahawks ahead in this game. The touchdown would turn out to be the game-winner. Fant finished the day with five receptions for 63 yards in addition to the touchdown. He recorded exactly 500 receiving yards this season on 48 catches. Fant was due for a touchdown. It is only fitting that it came on a day in which quarterback Geno Smith threw four touchdown passes. The Seahawks clearly value Fant as a contributor in their offense and that should continue moving forward. If Smith can bounce back in the touchdown department next season, Fant will be an interesting fantasy asset given how high-powered Seattle's offense is.

Chig Okonkwo Building Chemistry with Cam Ward

Friday, June 20, 5:54 PM

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo is reportedly looking good in recent open practices. Okonkwo has caught the most passes during OTAs and appears to be building a strong chemistry with rookie quarterback Cam Ward. The former fourth-round pick hasn't been too successful over his first three seasons. Over the last two years, Okonkwo has hauled in 50-plus receptions and under 550 receiving yards both seasons. The Titans don't have a ton of competition at tight end, so Okonkwo should remain the top option at that position. We could possibly be looking at a breakout campaign if these two continue building chemistry.
