Theo Johnson Undergoes Season Ending Surgery

Friday, December 6, 9:48 AM

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson (foot) underwent a season-ending surgery to address the foot injury he suffered on Thanksgiving against the Cowboys. According to Art Stapleton, the issue was a fifth metatarsal fracture and not a Lisfranc injury. This means the rookie finishes his first season with 29 receptions for 331 yards and a touchdown on 43 targets through 12 appearances. There hasn't been a confirmed timetable for his return yet. That means Daniel Bellinger will be the starter to finish out the season.

Colston Loveland A "Natural Fit" In Ben Johnson's Offense

Thursday, May 1, 3:44 PM

The Chicago Bears selected former Michigan tight end Colston Loveland with the No. 10 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, and Ted Nguyen of The Athletic believes he is a good match for Ben Johnson's offense. "Loveland is a natural fit in the role Sam LaPorta has played in the Lions' offense for now-Bears head coach Ben Johnson, moving all over the formation. Loveland has a burst and runs smooth routes. He can run a wide route tree from the inside or outside," Nguyen wrote. "He'll be able to feast inside against linebackers and safeties. Few second-level defenders who will be able to hang with Loveland's crafty route running and speed." While there's reason for optimism for Loveland in 2025 fantasy football, it often takes tight ends time to develop, and the Chicago pass-catching group is crowded with wide receivers DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, and Luther Burden III. Loveland is an intriguing dynasty fantasy football asset, but expectations should be somewhat tempered in redraft setups.
