Fantasy Football 2024: Scouting the Rookie Tight Ends
Rookie tight ends have historically struggled to make an immediate fantasy football impact, until, of course, this past season. Sam LaPorta led the entire position in fantasy points as a rookie, which is extremely rare, and Dalton Kincaid was a very useful asset when he was allowed a chance to make a statistical impact.
While these two players might be outliers, this duo (especially LaPorta) proves the right rookie tight end in the right system can become valuable in the fantasy world. What’s more, this season’s class has one player who could be an instant star.
So, with Super Bowl LVIII in the rearview mirror and a very exciting offseason right ahead of us, let’s take a look at some of the best tight end prospects you’ll need to know about when it comes time to prepare for dynasty and re-draft leagues.
