Theo Johnson News
Monday, August 24, 1:47 PM
New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson (undisclosed) left training camp practice early on Monday with an undisclosed injury, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Duggan described it as an "odd scene," with Johnson going down while blocking and trainers immediately coming out onto the field. Johnson then walked off, slammed his helmet, ripped his gloves off, and pulled his hood over his head. He walked directly off the field toward the locker room and was walking briskly while not being accompanied by a trainer. It does not sound like a significant injury for the 25-year-old, but we will have an update on the specific nature of his injury when those details emerge. The former fourth-rounder in 2024 from Penn State is set to operate as New York's TE2 behind newcomer Isaiah Likely in his third NFL season in 2025, leaving little fantasy upside in single-TE leagues. Johnson took a step forward in his sophomore campaign in 2025, catching 45 of his 74 targets for 528 yards and five touchdowns after posting a 29-331-1 line in 12 games as a rookie. RotoBaller has Johnson ranked as the No. 41 fantasy TE.

Tyler Warren News

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren (groin) could be held out of training camp practice this week while he recovers from a groin injury that he suffered last week, according to Mike Chappell of FOX 59. Warren did not play in the team's second preseason game on Saturday against the Atlanta Falcons after tweaking his groin in practice last Wednesday, but the Colts aren't too worried that the 24-year-old won't be available for the Week 1 regular-season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. The Colts are not taking any chances with one of the best pass-catching tight ends in the league, especially with receiver Alec Pierce (ankle) still on the Physically Unable to Perform list. Warren's injury is worth monitoring as the regular season approaches, but as of now, it should not dissuade fantasy managers from selecting him as a top-five player at the TE position. After being taken 14th overall last year out of Penn State, Warren caught 76 passes for 817 yards and four touchdowns in 17 games to finish as the TE6 in half-PPR scoring.
