Some rookie tight ends are set to play major fantasy roles in 2024.
Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the Las Vegas Raiders have "big plans" for 2024 first-round pick Brock Bowers and that the New York Giants envision fourth-round pick Theo Johnson being a "factor" in the offense.
Bowers carried significant hype as he entered the NFL after a prolific career at Georgia. In three seasons with the Bulldogs, Bowers made 175 catches for 2,538 yards and 26 touchdowns. He also added 193 yards and five touchdowns on the ground.
He helped lead Georgia to two National Championships and was the first tight end off the board at the 2024 Draft.
