Who Should I Start? Tre' McKitty or Daniel Bellinger

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Tre' McKitty has been waived by the team on Tuesday. The Chargers drafted McKitty in the third round of the 2021 draft out of Georgia but he was never able to make much of an impact in Los Angeles. He is young enough and has the draft pedigree to latch on somewhere else, so all is not lost for the third-year tight end. It will continue to be Gerald Everett (hip) and Donald Parham Jr. operating as the main tight ends for the Chargers.

Darren Waller's expected retirement could open the door for Daniel Bellinger to become the New York Giants' No. 1 tight end in 2024 like he was as a rookie. Bellinger's receiving opportunities were limited by Waller's presence last year, but the addition of veteran blocking tight ends this offseason should allow Bellinger to be featured more as a receiver in his third season in the league. The 23-year-old former fourth-round pick in 2022 out of San Diego State has caught 55 of his 63 targets for 523 yards and two touchdowns in his two seasons with the G-Men. If Waller hangs up his cleats as things seem to be trending, Bellinger could be a decent under-the-radar TE2 target in deeper fantasy leagues this fall.
