Taco Charlton Fantasy Stats

Veteran defensive lineman Taco Charlton agreed to a one-year deal to join the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday. The first-round pick from 2017 spent just under three seasons with the Dallas Cowboys before stints with the Miami Dolphins, Kansas City Chiefs, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Chicago Bears. Charlton has totaled 11.5 sacks and four forced fumbles through his first 60 NFL games. Assuming Charlton makes the 53-man roster, he'll be a pure depth piece on a loaded 49ers defensive line consisting of Javon Hargrave, Arik Armstead, and Nick Bosa.

The New Orleans Saints signed free-agent defensive end Taco Charlton to an undisclosed deal on Monday. Charlton was a first-round pick (28th overall) by the Dallas Cowboys back in 2017 out of Michigan. He spent his first two years in Dallas before making stops with the Miami Dolphins, Kansas City Chiefs and Pittsburgh Steelers the last three years. Charlton had just 18 tackles (seven solo), half a sack and two QB hits in 11 games (one start) in Pittsburgh last year, and he has a total of 92 tackles (53 solo), 12 tackles for loss, 22 QB hits, 11.5 sacks and four forced fumbles in 55 games (13 starts) over his five NFL seasons. The 27-year-old will be providing pass-rushing depth for the Saints this year.

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed defensive end Taco Charlton to their practice squad on Tuesday. Charlton is a former first-round pick (28th overall) by the Dallas Cowboys back in 2017. He spent two years in Dallas before playing 10 games with the Miami Dolphins in 2019. Charlton appeared in seven games for the Kansas City Chiefs last season, recording seven tackles (four solo) and two sacks before suffering a fractured leg. He was released by KC last month. The 26-year-old can be an effective pass-rusher when healthy, but for now he'll provide depth for a Steelers defense that is dealing with some key injuries early in the year.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive lineman Taco Charlton suffered a lower leg fracture in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers and will be placed on Injured Reserve, says head coach Andy Reid. Charlton has been a solid rotational piece for Kansas City this year, who'll miss having him for depth and the occasional sack. This shouldn't hurt the Chiefs Defense too much, but there should be a slight downgrade to the team's front seven.

Kansas City Chiefs defensive end Taco Charlton (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Charlton has been rejuvenated in Kansas City this season, with two sacks in six games as a rotational line piece. His absence won't kill this defense, but they would take a slight knock if he's unable to return.

The Kansas City Chiefs agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal with defensive end Taco Charlton on Saturday, according to a source. Charlton was a first-round pick (28th overall) in the 2017 draft for the Cowboys, but he has not lived up to expectations in the NFL so far. The 25-year-old was recently released from the Dolphins after he had 21 tackles (14 solo), three tackles for loss, five QB hits and five sacks in 10 games (five starts). He had just four sacks in his first two years with Dallas and won't be a lock to make Kansas City's final roster out of training camp.

The Miami Dolphins have decided to part ways with defensive end Taco Charlton after one season. He was the 28th overall pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 2017, but has failed to find consistency in the NFL. Charlton played in just 36 percent of the defensive snaps for the Dolphins last season. He recorded 21 total tackles, three tackles for loss, and five sacks through 10 games in 2019. Charlton was a healthy scratch for the final month of the season and his five sacks led the team. He is just 25 years old and has decent upside, but Charlton needs to find the right system.

The Dallas Cowboys selected Michigan defensive end Taco Charlton with the No. 28 overall pick of the 2017 NFL draft. Charlton is a beast at 6-foot-6, 277 pounds and uses his long arms and technique to rush the passer. The Cowboys are desperate for any sort of pass rush, so Charlton figures to play often in his rookie season. Charlton's weakness is his lack of burst off the line, so he'll need to work to improve his first step in order to get to passers in the NFL.
