David Njoku

TE David Njoku has agreed to a one-year deal, worth up to $8 million, with the Los Angeles Chargers.

Fantasy Impact

Njoku was a first-round pick by the Browns back in 2017 and ended up spending nine seasons in Cleveland. He earned Pro Bowl honors in 2023 after posting career-highs in receptions (81), receiving yards (882), and touchdowns (6). He has dealt with some injury issues over the last two seasons, missing a combined 11 games in 2024 and 2025. He did, however, still manage to catch 97 passes for 798 yards and nine scores over 23 contests during that time. With a quarterback situation that was in a constant state of flux in Cleveland, Njoku hauled in 384 passes for 4,062 yards and 34 touchdowns in his Browns' career. Now, he will have Justin Herbert throwing him the football, but will have to compete with Oronde Gadsden II, who had a great rookie season in 2025, for targets at the tight end spot.
