Adam Trautman

Saints TE Adam Trautman caught 1-of-2 targets for four yards in Sunday's Week 15 win over the Buccaneers.

Fantasy Impact

While Trautman returned from injured reserve this week, he did not make much of an impact, only logging two targets. He could serve a larger role next week against the Dolphins.

New Orleans Saints TE Adam Trautman (knee) will be activated from the injured reserve Saturday which will make him available to start Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Trautman's return from the IR was expected this week and has been made official by his activation in preparation for the Saints game Sunday. With Trautman returning he will likely resume his role as the number one TE and this will relegate Nick Vannett which will render Vannett unusable for fantasy moving forward.

Adam Trautman has been designated to return from IR from his knee injury.

Fantasy Impact

Trautman has been out since Week 12 with his knee injury and is now eligible to return. Will have to monitor throughout the week if Trautman is going to practice and play in Week 15's matchup. If Trautman were to play he would presumably take back the starting role from Nick Vannett.

Adam Trautman suffered a sprained MCL in the Saints' loss to the Eagles and will miss 4-6 weeks.

Fantasy Impact

Trautman had quietly become a quasi-reliable option at the tight end position, seeing at least six targets in four straight games and scoring his first touchdown of the season on Sunday. He wasn't rostered in an abundance of leagues, but if you were considering adding him this week in redraft formats, you'll obviously need to look another way. There's no need to bother with Juwan Johnson or Nick Vannett, as none of the New Orleans tight ends should have fantasy value going forward.

Saints TE Adam Trautman caught 5-of-8 targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Eagles.

Fantasy Impact

It has been a long year for Trautman, but he finally put together a terrific outing. In the past few games, he's been getting volume but against the Eagles, Trautman finally out a game together while finding the end zone. Trautman will get a tough matchup with the Bills in Week 12.
