  • Will Dissly TE | LAC

    Seahawks' Will Dissly: Practices with limitations

    Dissly (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

    Dissly was listed with the same injury ahead of the Seahawks' Week 3 win over the Cowboys, a game in which he logged 40 percent of the offensive snaps. The Seahawks are simply limiting his workload after the tight end tore his Achilles' tendon early last season. His injury status shouldn't concern fantasy managers too much, however, as he's recorded just five receptions for 22 yards through three games.

  • 49ers' George Kittle: Puts in full practice

    Kittle (knee) practiced without limitations Wednesday, Keiana Martin of the 49ers' official site reports.

    Kittle finally is in the clear after missing the last two games with a sprained MCL and bone bruise in his left knee. Upon his return Sunday versus the Eagles, he'll again have access to an overwhelming share of the reps at tight end in the wake of Jordan Reed (knee) being placed on injured reserve with the expectation he'll be sidelined up to 6-to-8 weeks. There's a chance Deebo Samuel (foot) makes his season debut Week 4, but his presence may open up the offense even more for Kittle to produce.

  • 49ers' George Kittle: Set for full practice

    Kittle (knee) is expected to be a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    After missing two games due to an MCL sprain and a bone bruise in his left knee, Kittle is on the verge of his first uncapped session since sustaining the injuries Week 1. Wednesday's injury report seemingly will clear Kittle of designations as the 49ers prepare for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

  • Dawson Knox TE | BUF

    Bills' Dawson Knox: Back to work

    Knox (concussion) is listed as a full participant for Wednesday's practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

    Though Knox looks like he'll take all the reps in Wednesday's practice, he hasn't necessarily cleared the NFL's concussion protocol just yet. That said, the fact that he's beginning the week on the field is a good sign with regard to his chances of being available in Sunday's game against the Raiders. Even if Knox gets the green light to play this weekend, he may have to fight to earn some looks in the passing game after Buffalo's other tight ends combined for three touchdown receptions from quarterback Josh Allen in the Week 3 win over the Rams.

  • Cardinals' Darrell Daniels: Records rare receptions

    Daniels hauled in both of his targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 26-23 defeat to the Lions.

    With Maxx Williams (ankle) on injured reserve, Daniels has earned 56 and 58 percent of the snaps on offense the last two games. In fact, that 58 percent figure led Cardinals tight ends Sunday, which was followed by Dan Arnold's 48 percent. Daniels' pair of receptions marked his first two of the season and just his second and third since the 2017 campaign. Daniels will have at least two more contests to make an impact while Williams recovers, but Arnold is the pass-catching option among the two TEs available to Kyler Murray.

  • Cole Kmet TE | CHI

    Bears' Cole Kmet: Non-factor Sunday

    Kmet did not garner a target during Sunday's 30-26 win over the Falcons.

    The rookie tight end has been on the field for more than 30 percent of Chicago's offensive snaps in all three of his outings, though he has only logged one catch for 12 yards on 68 total plays. Jimmy Graham has a team-high three receiving touchdowns through Week 3, but Kmet has yet to establish a rapport of his own with the Bears' signal-callers. As Nick Foles earns his first start for Chicago in Week 4, the team faces a Colts defense that has permitted an NFL-low 32 receiving yards to opposing tight ends.

  • Dan Arnold TE | PHI

    Cardinals' Dan Arnold: Little involvement against Lions

    Arnold hauled in one of his two targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Lions.

    The Wisconsin-Platteville standout did not enjoy prolific outings in Weeks 1 or 2 either, but he managed multiple receptions and at least 21 receiving yards in each of those contests. Week 3 marked a down week not only in terms of Arnold's statistical production but also in regards to his usage, as he logged a season-low 31 offensive snaps (his previous season low being 45). Arnold's upcoming matchup against Carolina is not a particularly appealing one, as the Panthers have allowed 108 receiving yards and no touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season.

  • Seahawks' Jacob Hollister: Finds end zone in win

    Hollister caught his lone target for a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's 38-31 win over the Cowboys.

    Hollister reeled in a designed pass play from Russell Wilson at the goal line to account for his first touchdown of the season. The 26-year-old tight end still has minimal fantasy utility behind Greg Olsen and Will Dissly, as Hollister hasn't played more than 18 percent of the offensive snaps in a game this season.

  • Will Dissly TE | LAC

    Seahawks' Will Dissly: Registers just five yards

    Dissly caught both targets for five yards in Sunday's 38-31 win over the Cowboys.

    Dissly is the clear No. 2 TE behind Greg Olsen, as he's played about 40 percent of snaps through three games. The Seahawks' shift to a pass-heavy approach hasn't benefited Dissly, however. He's caught all five targets this year for just 22 yards, and none of those have come in the red zone. Fantasy managers hoping for sleeper potential with Dissly can confidently jump ship.

  • Tommy Hudson TE | NO

    Tommy Hudson: Placed on COVID list

    The Titans placed Hudson on the practice squad COVID-19 list Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    Hudson either tested positive for the virus or came in contact with someone who tested positive. He'll need to pass the proper protocols before returning to the team.
