No targets Vannett was not targeted in Monday's 31-12 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Vannett played a season-high 50 percent of offensive snaps in Week 4 against the Dolphins. However, he was used as a blocking tight end and now has zero targets in half of his four games.

Finds end zone Vannett recorded two catches on two targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers.

Impact Vannett has played on roughly 25 percent of offensive snaps each game this season, serving primarily as a blocking option. However, he managed a two-yard touchdown catch midway through the first quarter after getting open in the back of the end zone. Vannett may occasionally serve as an option in the red zone or short areas of the field, but his statistical impact is likely to remain minimal overall.

Impact Vannett was cut by the Titans on Wednesday to make room for a waiver claim, but he was expected to return to Tennessee, per Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com. Vannett is part of a crowded tight end room made up of Chigoziem Okonkwo, Josh Whyle (concussion), Thomas Odukoya and David Martin-Robinson.

Makes room for waiver claim Vannett was cut by the Titans on Wednesday, Sam Phalen of AtoZSports.com reports.

Impact Vannett was cut to make room for a waiver claim, though he is expected to rejoin the team at a later date, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports. The Titans already have four tight ends on the roster, so it's unclear how he'll fit on the roster throughout the season.

Projecting Titans' TE depth chart after Nick Vannett signing With the addition of Nick Vannett on Monday, we’re projecting the Titans’ final tight end depth chart.

MAY 14, 2024 • USATODAY.COM

Will play Sunday Vannett (back) is active Sunday against the Broncos.

Impact Vannett has been nursing a back injury the last couple of weeks, but he'll continue to play through the injury again in Week 17. With Donald Parham (coach's decision) once again inactive, the Ohio State product should be the Chargers' No. 3 option at tight end.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Set to play Saturday Vannett (back) is active for Saturday's contest against the Bills.

Impact Donald Parham is a healthy inactive for this contest, meaning Vannett and Stone Smartt should mix in on occasion behind Gerald Everett. Vannett has played 37 offensive snaps combined over the past two weeks.

DECEMBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Missing Week 12 Vannett (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.

Impact The veteran tight end was held out of practice all week with a concussion, so it's not a surprise that he'll be inactive for Week 12's contest. Vannett has appeared in three games with the Chargers since signing with the team's active roster in early November, playing 59 total snaps (34 offensive and 25 on special teams).

NOVEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins active roster The Chargers signed Vannett to their active roster Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Vannett joined the Chargers' practice squad on Aug. 31 after being cut by the Texans ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. The Chargers are the sixth team Vannett has played for since he entered the league as a third-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. He'll add depth at the tight end position behind Gerald Everett -- who missed Sunday's game against the Bears due to a hip injury -- Donald Parham and Stone Smartt.

Sees production decline Vannett played in nine regular-season games between the Saints and the Giants, finishing with four receptions on seven targets for 42 yards and no touchdowns.

Impact Vannett began the campaign with New Orleans before latching on with New York's practice squad in late November. He eventually joined the team's active roster but saw limited action behind rookie starter Daniel Bellinger. Vannett's overall catch and yardage totals during the campaign were his lowest since his rookie season in 2016 with Seattle. Bellinger is the Giants' clear tight end of the future, so the team isn't likely to prioritize bringing back Vannett, who will be an unrestricted free agent.

FEBRUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Catches two passes Week 18 Vannett made two catches on four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

Impact Vannett came into the contest with only two catches over his past five games, and he equaled that total with a pair of receptions in a meaningless contest for the Giants. Usual starting tight end Daniel Bellinger was held out in anticipation of the postseason while Lawrence Cager, who hadn't played since Week 15, was the team's leading receiver with eight catches for 69 yards. Bellinger has been playing almost every offensive snap when healthy, so Vannett will likely return to a minor role against the Vikings in next weekend's wild-card contest.

JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

No injury designation Thursday Vannett (shoulder) was not listed with a game status ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Vikings.

Impact Vannett popped up with a shoulder injury on Tuesday's injury report, though it's unclear when or how this issue first arose. However, the 29-year-old should be ready to suit up again despite remaining limited in each practice ahead of Saturday's game versus Minnesota. Vannett has caught two of his three targets for 24 yards over the past two games, and he should continue to serve as the Giants' No. 2 tight end behind Daniel Bellinger.

DECEMBER 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited at practice Tuesday Vannett (shoulder) was a limited participant at practice Tuesday ahead of Saturday's game at Minnesota, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Vannett made his second grab of the season at Washington on Sunday night, but he played a much smaller share of snaps than in Weeks 13 or 14, which suggests he may have sustained his shoulder injury during that game. If Vannett can't go Saturday, Lawrence Cager would probably operate as the Giants' second tight end.

DECEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Nets 15 receiving yards Sunday Vannett brought in his only target for 15 yards in Sunday's Week 15 win against Washington.

Impact Daniel Bellinger (62 offensive snaps) remained New York's clear top tight end and received four targets, but he managed only one catch for four yards in the big victory. Vannett saw a much smaller role with just 10 snaps and one target, but he outgained Bellinger thanks to a second-quarter 15-yard reception. Vannett has two catches for 24 yards in his three games as a Giant, and his fantasy value is nonexistent given his minimal opportunities behind Bellinger.

DECEMBER 19, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Makes first catch as Giant Vannett caught one of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Eagles.

Impact Vannett's first catch since joining New York came late in the fourth quarter on a nine-yard toss from Tyrod Taylor. At that point, the game was already out of reach for the Giants, and starting tight end Daniel Bellinger had been pulled with a rib injury. Bellinger's status for Week 15 is uncertain due to the issue, and Vannett would likely step into the starting role if the rookie is unable to play against Washington on Sunday.

DECEMBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No targets in Giants debut Vannett did not get any targets against Washington in Sunday's 20-20 tie despite taking the field for 45 percent of the Giants' offensive snaps.

Impact Vannett made his debut with New York after coming over from New Orleans in late November. He was on the gridiron often Sunday but worked primarily as a blocker. Vannett did haul in a four-yard pass in the fourth quarter, but the play was called back due to a holding penalty. Rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger played all but two of the Giants' offensive snaps in the tie and caught five passes for 24 yards, emphasizing his role as the team's primary option at the position.

DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joining active roster The Giants signed Vannett to their active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus Washington, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Impact With starting tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) listed as questionable for Week 13, the Giants saw fit to add Vannett to the 53-man roster to provide some depth at the position. He has two catches for 13 yards on two targets through three games in 2022.

Ravens' Andrews, Saints' Landry out for Monday night game

The Saints have scratched veteran receiver Jarvis Landry for Monday night’s game against Baltimore after he tried to return to practice this week from an ankle injury

NOVEMBER 8, 2022 • Associated Press

Inactive Sunday Vannett (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Buccaneers, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Vannett was also inactive in Week 1, as the team still has Adam Trautman, Taysom Hill and Juwan Johnson ahead of him.
