With Darren Waller's retirement, who can step up as the Giants' primary tight end?
The New York Giants tight end room took a noticeable hit when Darren Waller informed the team that he'd be retiring. Waller had made it known he was contemplating retirement since the beginning of the offseason but prolonged his decision until the summer.
Daniel Bellinger, who had a more prominent role during his rookie season, saw fewer pass targets due to Waller's presence. Lawrence Cager was the third tight end on last year's roster, appearing in 11 games and only catching four passes. Bellinger had 63 targets over two seasons, 31.5 on average per season. Johnson's expected to have a large role as a rookie in the passing game. Can Bellinger and Johnson combine for the 552 yards Waller put up last season? This also doesn't include Cager, who rotates in occasionally.Chris Manhertz vs Jack Stoll as the team's primary blocking tight end.
