Taysom Hill News
Monday, August 3, 5:41 PM
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton said on Monday that "there's no hurry right now" to bring in free-agent tight end Taysom Hill, according to Luca Evans of The Denver Post. Payton added that he's set to see Hill in five days at quarterback Drew Brees' Hall of Fame induction. The head coach also said later that he needs to see where Hill is mentally and whether he even wants to play another season in the NFL. The 35-year-old Swiss Army Knife for the New Orleans Saints for the last nine years has parted ways with the organization and will play for another team if he returns for a 10th season in 2026. In 13 games with the Saints last year, Hill carried the ball 52 times for 114 yards (career-low 2.2 yards per carry) and just one touchdown, adding 11 catches for 91 yards on 16 targets as a receiver. The Broncos already have a pretty crowded receiver and running backs room, as well as veteran TE Evan Engram, so Hill could be an odd fit if he were to join Denver. Payton would surely find a way to use Hill to his advantage, but he would most likely operate in more of a gadget role that wouldn't lend itself to much fantasy football value.

Dallas Goedert News
Friday, August 21, 6:10 PM
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert "had a good day" during the team's joint practice with the New England Patriots on Thursday, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic. Berman writes that as long as Goedert stays healthy, he will "be one of (Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts') top targets." Across 15 games in 2025, Goedert recorded 60 catches for 591 yards and 11 touchdowns on 82 targets. Goedert recorded just 24 total touchdown catches across his first seven NFL seasons going into 2025, so his spike in red zone production last season was a surprise and may not be fully sustainable in 2026. However, the Eagles lost a significant portion of their receiving production over the offseason by trading away wideout A.J. Brown. While the team added talent at wide receiver to replace Brown, Goedert has more established chemistry with Hurts than any Philadelphia pass-catcher outside of wide receiver DeVonta Smith. Heading into 2026, fantasy managers should view Goedert as a low-end TE1 option.
