Tyler Conklin News
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.

Terrance Ferguson News
Saturday, March 7, 5:41 AM
Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson was selected with the 46th overall pick in the second round of the 2025 NFL draft out of Oregon. In his first NFL season, the 23-year-old only caught 11 passes on 25 targets for 231 yards and three touchdowns in 14 regular-season games (three starts) while serving primarily as the TE3 behind Tyler Higbee and Colby Parkinson. He did finish off the regular season last year with five catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns on eight targets in the last two games of the regular season, but he caught just one pass for 19 yards in two playoff games to end his first year in the NFL. The Rams recently re-signed Tyler Higbee for another season, so Ferguson's path to fantasy relevance will be difficult as he enters his sophomore season in L.A. Ferguson isn't a bad dynasty stash, but in redraft leagues this fall, he'll be avoidable.
