Charlie Kolar - Splits first-team snaps with Njoku
sleeper-rotowire+13 stories · 30dSource unavailable
Kolar and David Njoku both started Thursay's preseason game against San Francisco. Kolar finished with one catch for nine yards on eight snaps. Njoku played just five snaps without seeing a target. Oronde Gadsden, meanwhile, wasn't spotted until the second quarter. Gadsden might be the team's best receiving threat at the position, but there's a real chance that the Week 1 snap counts reflect a preseason depth chart with Njoku and Kolar listed as co-starters. It doesn't look like an especially friendly situation for fantasy managers, with targets potentially split between three TEs in an offense that also uses a fullback at times. Kolar, in particular, isn't likely to see much playing time in clear passing situations, which makes mainstream fantasy relevance unlikely

Ravens Tight End Room Built Around Mark Andrews
Ravens tight ends coach Zack Grossi stated that the tight end room is built around veteran Mark Andrews, with other players complementing his role. Despite a down year in 2023 due to Lamar Jackson's absence, Andrews is expected to see increased snaps and improve with Jackson healthy, making him a tight end to watch this season

Mark Andrews a Solid Mid-to-Late Round Tight End Option in 2026
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is in line for a solid 2026 season. Andrews had a down 2025 season, with 48 receptions for 470 yards and six touchdowns, finishing as the TE16 in half-PPR formats. That was with Isaiah Likely and Charlie Kolar still firmly in the mix, and star quarterback Lamar Jackson missing several games. Now, the Ravens hired Declan Doyle as the new offensive coordinator in 2026. Doyle came from the Chicago Bears in 2025 and has been under Broncos head coach Sean Payton for most of his coaching career. Both Payton's and Ben Johnson's offenses favor tight ends, with players like Sam LaPorta, Colston Loveland, and Saints tight end Jimmy Graham when Payton coached in New Orleans. There's a strong chance Andrews is the second option in the receiving game behind Zay Flowers, with a great quarterback supplying him as well. Ranked TE9 and 104 in RotoBaller's rankings, Andrews could be a great value this season
