The 49ers’ all-world tight end’s 2025 season ended with an unfortunate Achilles injury in the 49ers’ victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Wild Card weekend.

Finally, the moment you’ve all been waiting for: Rookie jersey numbers! Best Number: OT Travis Burke Double numbers are always the best-looking, in my opinion.

The Las Vegas Raiders made a somewhat surprising move in the second round of the 2026 NFL draft, adding former Arizona defensive back Treydan Stukes to the roster.

The Cleveland Browns selected BYU TE Carsen Ryan in the 7th round of the 2026 NFL Draft, and despite his draft slot, he could end up playing a legitimate role in Todd Monken’s offense this year.
