◆FLEX

David Njoku's recent release and current free-agent status signal a significant downgrade in his role and value, making him a FLEX option at best.

Role & volume
Before his release, Njoku averaged just 48.3% snap share over the last four games, indicating limited involvement even when on a team.
Projected role
As an unsigned free agent, Njoku's projected role is uncertain and likely to be secondary or tertiary at best, given his TE34 value rank.
Range (floor–ceiling)
His recent dynasty value has softened from 2240 to 2128 WoW, suggesting a narrow range with a low floor and ceiling as he seeks a new team role.

  • Offensive Context

    Since joining, he plays in Justin Herbert's offense under new OC Mike McDaniel, whose motion-heavy scheme has historically featured athletic, flex/seam-capable tight ends — a real fit if he can pull snaps away from Gadsden.
