A new sleeper emerged Sunday at tight end when the Seahawks released Noah Fant. Elijah Arroyo is about to become very popular for Fantasy managers. He was already a buzzworthy player following the NFL Draft when Seattle selected him at No.

Many fans had hopes for a splash addition after Seattle moved on from Noah Fant, but it appears the team had other plans.

The Seattle Seahawks released tight end Noah Fant, the team announced Sunday. The Seahawks saved $8.91 million against the salary cap by releasing Fant after he was due a non-guaranteed salary of $8.49 million in 2025, per Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times.

The San Francisco 49ers have already added two tight ends in free agency, but a former first-round pick came available who could help their depth.

But the Seattle Seahawks have released tight end Noah Fant, according to NFL Network. The former first-round pick was due for a cap hit of $13.4 million this season, so it seems like a clear cost-saving move. Seattle must also feel great about its rookie tight end out of Miami, Elijah Arroyo.
