Stephen Anderson Fantasy

The Los Angeles Chargers signed free-agent tight end Stephen Anderson to their practice squad and released defensive back Mark Webb Jr. from the practice squad in a corresponding move. The move comes as the Chargers look to add depth at the position heading into a Week 11 contest against the Green Bay Packers with both Gerald Everett (back) and Donald Parham Jr. (hip) banged up. Neither player was able to practice on Wednesday and they could both be in danger of sitting out this weekend. If one or both of Everett and Parham are limited or out against Green Bay, the Chargers would be forced to give Stone Smartt or Nick Vannett more playing time. Anderson has yet to play in a game in 2023. He has 63 catches for 715 yards and three touchdowns in six NFL seasons and spent 2019-21 with the Chargers.

Free-agent tight end Stephen Anderson has signed a one-year deal with the Arizona Cardinals, according to Aaron Wilson of Pro Football Network. The six-year veteran previously spent time with the Texans and Chargers. Last season, he caught 16 passes for 165 yards and his first touchdown since 2017. Currently 29 years old, Anderson will likely compete with Deon Yelder and Darrell Daniels for the third-string tight end role in Glendale this coming summer.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Stephen Anderson had his best game of the season in a Week 9 victory versus the Philadelphia Eagles. Anderson saw a season-high four targets and caught all four balls for 39 yards and his first touchdown of the season. Anderson's touchdown came on a two-yard pass from quarterback Justin Herbert to give the Chargers an early 7-0 lead in the first quarter. Despite the nice performance, Anderson remains behind Jared Cook and Donald Parham Jr. on the depth chart. Fantasy managers can safely leave Anderson on waivers for his Week 10 matchup versus the Minnesota Vikings.
