Tyler Conklin Signs One-Year Deal With Lions

Friday, March 13, 12:49 PM

Free-agent tight end Tyler Conklin is signing an undisclosed one-year deal with the Detroit Lions on Friday, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Conklin will join the Lions, his fourth different team, for his ninth NFL campaign in 2026. The 30-year-old veteran played for the Los Angeles Chargers last year and caught only seven of his 10 targets for 101 yards and no touchdowns in 13 regular-season games (five starts) as a depth option. The former fifth-round pick (157th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2018 out of Central Michigan will likely be in a depth role again in his move to Motown, behind both Sam LaPorta (back) and Brock Wright (neck), leaving him avoidable in all fantasy football leagues. Conklin had a career-high 621 receiving yards in 2023 with the New York Jets, and he's never scored more than four times in a single season. He's caught a total of 270 passes in his career for 2,645 yards and 11 touchdowns across his eight seasons.

Oscar Delp News

Oscar Delp is Fully Healthy

Tuesday, June 16, 5:55 PM

New Orleans Saints tight end Oscar Delp (hamstring) is back on the field during team drills. Delp is back to making an impact after suffering a hamstring injury during the second week of OTAs. The third-round rookie was reportedly putting on a show during recent drills. Since his return, Delp has reportedly been the most targeted player during 7-on-7 drills. The Saints are hopeful that Delp can be a significant part of their future. He's currently in competition for snaps with Juwan Johnson and Noah Fant. Delp might not have a huge role in the Saints' offense right away, but he is certainly a promising young player.
