Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq has decided to leave school early and declare for the NFL draft, Sadiq is projected to be a first round pick.
The current top tight end in this year’s rookie class, Kenyon Sadiq from Oregon, has decided to declare for the 2026 NFL Draft. Sadiq finished the season with 51 receptions for 560 yards and eight touchdowns.
The Oregon tight end is projected to be a first round pick and there’s several potential landing spots for him. One spot of particular interest is the Kansas City Chiefs, all time great tight end Travis Kelce is mulling retirement and Sadiq could fill that void.
Great tight ends are always valuable for fantasy football managers and if Sadiq does end up in Kansas City he’d have a pathway to immediate production. Where he lands in the NFL will offer more clarity on his year one role but dynasty managers would be wise to prioritize Sadiq at tight end in rookie and startup drafts.
