Anthony Firkser News
The New England Patriots have reached a deal with free-agent tight end Anthony Firkser. The details of the deal are unknown, but it's assumed to be a one-year deal on league minimum. Most recently, Firkser played with the Atlanta Falcons in 2022-2023. He finished with nine receptions for 100 yards in 11 games with the team. To be fair, Firkser was mainly used as a blocking specialist in Atlanta. He managed 73 receptions, 678 yards, and three touchdowns between 2020 and 2021 as a rotational player with the Tennessee Titans. He's not expected to have a huge role in New England. He has a decent shot at making the roster, but probably won't do enough to warrant rostering in fantasy formats.
The Atlanta Falcons have signed tight end Anthony Firkser to the 53-man roster after he was elevated from the practice squad last week. The 27-year-old caught one pass for six yards in the season opener, as he was one of three different tight ends to get a target in Week 1. Kyle Pitts will lead the way at the position, while Parker Hesse also remains in the mix for the Atlanta offense. Firkser could be as low as the No. 3 option on the depth chart, so he offers no fantasy appeal unless someone ahead of him misses some time.
Atlanta Falcons tight end Anthony Firkser has been promoted to the active roster ahead of Sunday's divisional matchup against New Orleans. He was sitting on the practice squad, so this will be his first official game wearing anything other than a Titans uniform. Throughout his four seasons in Tennessee, the 27-year-old had some fantasy value, accumulating 106 catches for 1,107 yards and five touchdowns. However, with Kyle Pitts in front of Firkser on the depth chart, he isn't worth a look from fantasy managers, even if Drake London (knee) doesn't play.
