Trey McBride News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:10 AM
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride put together a dominant campaign in 2025, recording 126 receptions for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns on 169 targets across 17 games. The 26-year-old has emerged as a PPR-points scoring machine over the past two seasons, averaging 9.6 targets and 7.2 receptions per game since the start of 2024. Entering 2026, there's little doubt that McBride remains an elite tight end option for fantasy managers. However, dynasty managers may want to at least consider selling ultra-high on McBride. For one, McBride benefited from the Cardinals' abnormally high pass volume once Jacoby Brissett took over as the quarterback in 2025. While Brissett is back as the starter for 2026, Arizona has a new play-caller in Mike LaFleur and used the third overall pick in the 2026 draft on running back Jeremiyah Love. Additionally, McBride's 11 touchdowns last season may be an outlier, as he recorded just six touchdown catches over the first 49 games of his NFL career. It would need to be a massive haul, but dynasty rebuilders with McBride on their roster may want to explore a trade.

Kenyon Sadiq News
Monday, June 29, 8:58 AM
New York Jets rookie tight end Kenyon Sadiq (hernia) missed organized team activities and minicamp after having hernia surgery that stemmed from an injury in college, but the Jets said they were aware of it during the pre-draft process earlier this year. Sadiq is expected to be ready for training camp this summer, although he'll be a bit behind, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Offensive coordinator Frank Reich envisions the University of Oregon product as a mismatch because of his speed and explosiveness, so he should have a role in his first year in the NFL alongside second-year TE Mason Taylor. The 16th overall pick in this year's NFL draft is an athletic freak at 6-foot-3 and 241 pounds and will be a popular selection in rookie-only dynasty/keeper leagues, but fantasy managers in redraft formats might want to temper expectations a bit in an offense with veteran quarterback Geno Smith leading the charge. At RotoBaller, Sadiq is ranked as the No. 17 fantasy TE. There's obvious pass-catching upside due to his athleticism, but there are plenty of questions as to how involved he'll be every week.
