Across 17 games as a rookie in 2025, Indianapolis Colts tight end
Tyler Warren recorded 76 receptions for 817 yards and four touchdowns on 112 targets. Like the rest of the Colts offense, Warren's production faded as the season progressed. After Indianapolis' Week 11 bye, the 23-year-old failed to log more than five receptions for 45 receiving yards in any of the team's final seven contests. Still, Warren showed significant upside in his first NFL campaign and should be well-positioned to re-capture some of his first-half magic in 2026. For one, the Colts should be getting back quarterback
Daniel Jones (Achilles), who missed the team's final four games of 2025 after suffering a torn Achilles tendon. Perhaps most importantly, Indianapolis traded wide receiver
Michael Pittman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers, opening the door for Warren to be the team's clear lead target-earner in 2026 and beyond. Warren should be considered an elite dynasty tight end option for fantasy managers.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback
Brock Purdy battled a nagging toe injury for much of the first half of the 2025 season and was ultimately sidelined for eight games. Still, the 26-year-old got hot down the stretch and ultimately put together solid numbers in the nine games he was able to play, completing 69.4% of his pass attempts for 2,167 yards, 20 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. Purdy also made a modest fantasy impact with his legs, rushing for 147 yards and three scores. Purdy could be without a couple of key weapons for at least the start of 2026, as star tight end
George Kittle (Achilles) will likely miss the start of the year with a torn Achilles tendon, and wide receiver
Jauan Jennings is currently lingering in unrestricted free agency. However, San Francisco made one of the biggest splashes of the offseason by signing star wide receiver
Mike Evans, who immediately gives Purdy a high-end downfield and red zone target. The 49ers could also get more out of wide receiver
Ricky Pearsall, who has been limited by injuries to just 20 games played over his first two NFL seasons. While the loss of Kittle hurts, San Francisco still has a solid supporting cast around Purdy that should allow the young QB to continue to be a productive option for fantasy managers.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Jalen McMillan had his 2025 season largely derailed after he suffered a neck injury in preseason action that caused him to miss 13 games. Upon his return, the 24-year-old recorded 12 catches for 178 yards on 15 targets across Tampa Bay's final four contests of the regular season. However, McMillan could be well-positioned for a bounce-back year in 2026. Longtime stalwart Buccaneers wide receiver
Mike Evans signed with the San Francisco 49ers in free agency, opening the door for McMillan to carve out a regular role alongside Tampa Bay wideouts
Emeka Egbuka and
Chris Godwin Jr. McMillan flashed significant upside as a rookie in 2024, hauling in 37 catches for 461 yards and eight touchdowns on 58 targets across 13 games. With Godwin Jr. battling injuries and age-related decline in recent years, McMillan could emerge as the WR2 in Tampa Bay as soon as next season. His dynasty value should be trending upwards following the departure of Evans from Tampa Bay.

New York Giants running back
Cam Skattebo (ankle) burst onto the scene as a rookie in 2025, recording 617 yards from scrimmage and seven touchdowns on 125 touches across the first eight weeks of the season. Unfortunately for Skattebo and the Giants, the 24-year-old suffered a season-ending ankle injury in Week 8 that cut his rookie campaign short. On the bright side, Skattebo is expected to make a full recovery and should be a full participant in Giants training camp. Skattebo currently projects as the RB1 in New York heading into 2026, although fellow back
Tyrone Tracy Jr. will certainly warrant some touches as well. However, the Giants have been linked to University of Notre Dame running back
Jeremiyah Love, who is widely considered the number one prospect at the position in the 2026 NFL Draft. If the Giants do indeed select Love, Skattebo's dynasty stock would take a major hit. Assuming New York does not make a major addition at running back, Skattebo looks well-positioned to establish himself as a workhorse back in 2026.

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.

The Carolina Panthers are signing former Green Bay Packers left tackle Rasheed Walker to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, sources told Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Walker was one of the top free agents still on the open market. The 26-year-old was drafted in the seventh round (249th overall) by Green Bay back in 2022 out of Penn State. He has started 48 of the 52 games he's appeared in over his four years in the NFL, and he'll now head to the NFC South to give the Panthers another experienced left-tackle option in case Ikem Ekwonu (knee) isn't ready for the start of the 2026 regular season this fall after he tore the patellar tendon in his knee in the Wild-Card loss to the Los Angeles Rams in the postseason. Walker was the Packers' starting left tackle in 2025 and played in all 1,057 of their offensive snaps.

The Arizona Cardinals re-signed wide receiver
Simi Fehoko (wrist) to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. Fehoko didn't play behind Week 10 last year after suffering a wrist injury. The 28-year-old finished his fifth year in the league (first with Arizona) with no catches on no targets despite appearing in eight games for the Cardinals. The former fifth-round selection by the Dallas Cowboys in 2021 out of Stanford played just 37 offense snaps and 116 special teams snaps. In his five years in the NFL, Fehoko hasn't seen many opportunities as a pass-catcher, hauling in 10 of 22 targets for 139 yards and one touchdown in 32 games (two starts). He will return to the desert to provide WR depth behind
Marvin Harrison Jr.,
Michael Wilson, and
Kendrick Bourne. Fehoko can be ignored in all fantasy football formats.

The Washington Commanders are signing veteran free-agent wide receiver
Van Jefferson (forearm) to an undisclosed deal on Friday, a source told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Even though it's wide open right now behind WR1
Terry McLaurin in D.C., the 29-year-old Jefferson will most likely serve as a depth option for the Commanders in 2026. The team also brought back
Dyami Brown on Friday after he spent his first four seasons with Washington. Jefferson ended last year on Injured Reserve due to a forearm injury. Before his injury, the former second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2020 caught 29 of his 52 targets for 350 yards and one touchdown in 16 games (seven starts) with the Tennessee Titans. Jefferson's career year in 2021 with the Rams in his second year in the league has been the outlier, as he hasn't come anywhere close to the 802 receiving yards and six TDs he had that season. The Commanders are likely to bring in more receiving help via free agency and the draft, which would push Jefferson further down the WR depth chart.

The Washington Commanders are bringing free-agent wide receiver
Dyami Brown back on an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, a source told Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic. Brown will return to D.C. after he was drafted by Washington in the third round (82nd overall) in 2021 out of North Carolina. He had 59 catches on 102 targets for 784 yards and four touchdowns in 63 games (10 starts) in his first four years in the league with the Commanders before joining the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. In 14 regular-season contests (six starts) with the Jags last year, the 26-year-old pass-catcher had a 20-227-1 line on 37 targets. The Commanders are pretty desperate for WR options at the moment behind
Terry McLaurin, with
Deebo Samuel Sr.,
Noah Brown, and
Chris Moore all on the open market. The team also signed veteran
Van Jefferson on Friday, but Brown is better suited to potentially become Washington's No. 2 receiver in 2026, barring more additions in free agency or the draft.

The New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams are "making strong pushes" to land Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
A.J. Brown in a trade, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic. No deals have been agreed to as negotiations continue, but both teams continue to "show heavy interest." The Pats continue to show interest in Brown despite signing Green Bay Packers wideout
Romeo Doubs, while the Rams are still interested despite already sending a first-round pick and other draft capital to the Kansas City Chiefs last week for cornerback Trent McDuffie. The Eagles don't have a ton of incentive to trade Brown, who has four straight 1,000-yard seasons, and they've reportedly been asking for a first-round pick and then some. Eagles GM Howie Roseman "won't part with a great player for nothing." For fantasy purposes, managers with Brown in dynasty/keeper leagues surely hope he isn't dealt to the Rams, where he'd be competing for targets with
Puka Nacua and
Davante Adams.

After the Baltimore Ravens backed out of a blockbuster trade earlier this week to acquire Las Vegas Raiders All-Pro pass-rusher Maxx Crosby (knee), the 28-year-old defensive end said that by training camp, he's going to be "200% ready" and the world will get the "best version" of himself, per NFL Network's Gerald McCoy on Good Morning Football. Crosby had surgery to fix the meniscus in his knee in January, which likely contributed to Baltimore getting cold feet, but he apparently plans to be a full-go by this summer for either the Raiders or another team that wants to give up two first-round picks for him. Already one of the best pass-rushers in the NFL, who has been very durable in his career, the nixed trade to the Ravens might have lit a fire under Crosby. Right now, the five-time Pro Bowler says he's fully committed to the Ravens and has already been at the team's facilities. The former fourth-rounder has 69.5 sacks in his seven NFL seasons and has double-digit sacks in three of the last four years. Crosby will remain a high-end defensive line target in IDP leagues in 2026.

Atlanta Falcons general manager Ian Cunningham said that new quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa knows "he is coming in to compete," with the same being said about
Michael Penix Jr. (knee), according to Tori McElhaney of AtlantaFalcons.com. "There are no starters right now," Cunningham added. The problem with Atlanta's QB competition this offseason is that Penix could be rehabbing for the vast majority, if not all, of the offseason after he suffered a torn ACL late in 2025. That could give Tua, who signed a one-year, $1.3 million contract with Atlanta, a leg up for the starting job entering the 2026 regular season this fall. The 28-year-old former first-rounder is injury-prone himself, though, and has had two straight disappointing seasons after leading the NFL with 4,624 passing yards in Miami in 2023. Both Tagovailoa and Penix have seen their dynasty stock fall in the past year. For Penix, it's mainly due to his knees; he's had three ACL surgeries now. If Tagaovailoa wins the job, he could be an interesting low-end QB2 with upside in a change of scenery and in an offense with some nice weapons.

The Indianapolis Colts re-signed tight end
Drew Ogletree to an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday, league sources told James Boyd of The Athletic. The former sixth-round pick in 2022 out of Youngstown State missed his entire rookie season due to a torn ACL in his knee. Since then, he has had four touchdown catches in three years and has mostly been used as a blocker on offense. Ogletree has a total of 22 catches for 283 yards and four touchdowns on 41 targets in his three seasons played in Indianapolis. Last year was his worst stat-wise, as the 27-year-old caught just four passes on six targets for 27 yards and one touchdown in 15 games (five starts). Ogletree isn't even a stash option in dynasty/keeper leagues and could be the TE4 for the Colts going into next season, behind
Tyler Warren,
Will Mallory, and
Sean McKeon.

The Tennessee Titans are releasing cornerback L'Jarius Sneed on Friday, sources told Adam Schefter of ESPN. The move will save the Titans $11.4 million against this year's salary cap. Sneed will now be a free agent and can sign with any team. After spending his first four seasons in the NFL with the Kansas City Chiefs, Sneed joined the Titans in 2024. The 29-year-old defensive back only ended up playing in 12 games the last two years in Nashville, though, due to injuries. In his 12 games, he had 49 tackles (37 solo) and three pass breakups. Sneed ended up being a bust for the Titans' defense after he signed a four-year, $76.4 million deal with the Titans in March of 2024. He had developed into a top cornerback in his time with the Chiefs, so another team in need of cornerback help is sure to pounce on Sneed as long as he's healthy. Sneed averaged three interceptions and 66.5 solo tackles in his four years in KC.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht announced on Friday that the team agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal to bring tight end
Ko Kieft (leg) back for the 2026 season. Kieft suffered a leg injury in Week 3 of last season and never played again. The 28-year-old former sixth-round selection by the Bucs out of Minnesota in 2022 has played for the team the last four years, catching only eight passes on 15 targets for 82 yards and two touchdowns. Both of his scores came in his first two years in the league. Kieft will return to Tampa for a fifth season, but he won't be anywhere on the fantasy football radar. He will most likely enter the 2026 regular season this fall as the TE3 behind both
Cade Otton and
Payne Durham. Kieft's best year was his rookie campaign in 2022, when he had seven catches for 80 yards and a touchdown. He hasn't caught a pass since 2023.
