David Njoku | Fantasy Outlook

A Fresh Start in Los Angeles Offers Intriguing Late-Round Tight End Value

David Njoku signs a one-year deal with the Chargers, bringing his proven athleticism to Mike McDaniel's new-look offense. While he is currently listed behind Oronde Gadsden on the depth chart, coaches have praised his ability to fit immediately into both run and pass schemes. He will catch passes from Justin Herbert, giving him a massive quarterback upgrade over his final seasons in Cleveland.

Our projections anticipate a modest yet efficient role, slotting Njoku for 36 receptions, 379 yards, and 3 touchdowns. In PPR formats, this output keeps him on the fantasy radar as a streaming option. Despite the committee nature of the Chargers' tight end room, his athletic profile gives him upside that most late-round options lack.

Fantasy managers are taking a wait-and-see approach as his ADP has drifted from the 170s down to 187 over the past month. At this suppressed cost, he represents a low-risk, high-reward dart throw. If he secures the primary pass-catching role in training camp, he will easily outperform this draft-day price.
