Terrance Ferguson TE | LAR
Rams' Terrance Ferguson: Catches 11 passes in rookie season
Ferguson caught 11 passes for 231 yards and three touchdowns in three regular-season games during the 2025 season.
Ferguson spent the majority of the campaign as the team's No. 3 tight end behind Colby Parkinson and Tyler Higbee but still had a solid rookie season nonetheless. With Higbee set to be a free agent, Ferguson could see a larger role on offense next season.

Carter Runyon TE | LV
Raiders' Carter Runyon: Catches one pass in 2025
Runyon caught one pass for three yards in three games during the 2025 season.
Runyon joined the team as an undrafted free agent prior to the start of the season but had a quiet outing during his rookie campaign, as he saw the majority of his playing time on special teams. The 24-year-old will look to be more involved in Las Vegas' offense during the 2025 campaign.

Hunter Henry TE | NE
Patriots' Hunter Henry: Strong production in 2025
Henry caught 60 of 87 targets for 768 yards and seven touchdowns over 17 games during the 2025 regular season.
Henry was able to appear in all 17 of the team's regular-season contests for the first time since 2022, and he notched a career-high 768 receiving yards. His seven touchdowns were his highest total since 2021, and he reeled in at least 60 passes for the second straight year and third time overall in his 10-year NFL career. The tight end also caught nine of 15 targets for 112 yards and a score over the Patriots' four games during the postseason. Henry has developed into being quite a reliable option for quarterback Drake Maye, and he'll look to keep it up in 2026.

David Njoku TE | CLE
Browns' David Njoku: Suggests time in Cleveland is up
Njoku (knee) posted on his Instagram account Monday that it is time for him "to find a new home," Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Njoku just completed his ninth season with the Browns, posting a 33-293-4 line on 48 targets over 12 games. His catch, yardage and target totals were his lowest since 2020, due in part to injury (he missed five contests, including the final four of the season) but even more so because of the emergence of rookie TE Harold Fannin (groin). Njoku's contract is scheduled to void upon the start of the 2026 league year, and it sounds like the veteran out of Bowling Green won't be returning to Cleveland. Given the increasing importance of tight ends around the league, though, Njoku could still have multiple suitors in free agency.

AJ Barner TE | SEA
Seahawks' AJ Barner: Scores lone offensive touchdown
Barner caught all four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-13 win over the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
All four of Barner's catches went for first downs, and he finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Cooper Kupp (61). Barner's first postseason touchdown -- a 16-yard reception where he was wide open -- essentially put the game away for the Seahawks in the fourth quarter. The Seahawks trusted the second-year tight end with blocking and pass-catching duties all season, and he finished with 58 receptions for 586 yards and seven touchdowns across 20 games, including the postseason. He should be the leader for the No. 1 TE role in 2026 despite the addition of Elijah Arroyo -- a second-round pick in 2025.

Travis Kelce TE | KC
Chiefs' Travis Kelce: Wanted back in Kansas City
The Chiefs have remained in touch with Kelce during the offseason and are hopeful to re-sign him for the 2026 season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
For the second offseason in a row, the 36-year-old tight end is taking some time to ponder his playing future before he comes to a decision on whether to continue his career or head into retirement. If the impending free agent elects to keep playing in 2026, Kelce's preference would almost certainly be to return to Kansas City for a 13th season, and the Chiefs are seemingly willing to keep a roster spot open for him. Though the Chiefs finished a disappointing 6-11 in 2025 and played without star quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) for their final three contests, Kelce still enjoyed a bounce-back season in terms of efficiency. He played the full 17-game slate and recorded 76 catches for 851 yards and five touchdowns on 108 targets, with his 7.9 yards per target representing a big uptick from his 2024 mark of 6.2.

Jared Wiley TE | KC
Chiefs' Jared Wiley: Minimal action in 2025
Wiley finished the 2025 regular season with one reception for four yards in five games.
Wiley struggled to see the field for the Chiefs in 2025, as Travis Kelce, Noah Gray and Robert Tonyan were all ahead on the depth chart. Wiley played just 52 total snaps (28 offensive and 24 on special teams) as the No.4 tight end. The 25-year-old has two more seasons under contract with Kansas City heading into 2026.

Robert Tonyan TE | KC
Chiefs' Robert Tonyan: Not much action in 2025
Tonyan finished the 2025 regular season with one reception for one yard in 17 games.
Tonyan signed with the Chiefs' active roster in late August after previously signing with their practice squad. The 31-year-old spent the majority of the season as the No.3 tight end behind Travis Kelce and Noah Gray. Tonyan is set to hit free agency, where he'll likely compete for a depth role once again.

Brenton Strange TE | JAC
Jaguars' Brenton Strange: Finishes with career high in yards
Strange finished the 2025 season with 46 catches for 540 yards and three touchdowns in 12 regular-season games.
Strange became the No. 1 tight end for the Jaguars in 2025 after Evan Engram signed with Denver in free agency. In his expanded role, Strange set a career high in receiving yards and touchdowns (540 yards and three touchdowns) despite missing five games due to a hip injury that landed him on injured reserve. The 25-year-old will look to build on his career season entering 2026.

Andrew Ogletree TE | IND
Colts' Drew Ogletree: Ends 2025 on IR
Ogletree (IR, neck) finished his 2025 campaign with four receptions for 27 yards and one touchdown on six targets across 15 regular-season games.
Ogletree was a pivotal special-teams player and blocking tight end for the Colts, logging 68 percent of snaps or better in every contest he played in until he suffered his neck injury. The 2022 sixth-round pick's injury came at an unfortunate time in his career, as Ogletree will be an unrestricted free agent come the new league year.
