3 years agoMinnesota Vikings impending free-agent tight end Tyler Conklin said he "would love" to re-sign with the team for the 2022 season. Conklin had a career-high 61 catches for 593 yards and three touchdowns in 2021, and it helped that Irv Smith didn't play all year due to injury. His best path to fantasy relevance again this year would likely come with another team. The 26-year-old had a combined 32 receptions on 43 targets for 329 yards and one touchdown in the three seasons prior to 2021. The good news for Conklin is that three tight ends were handed the franchise tag, so he could generate plenty of interest on the open market from tight end-needy teams. If Conklin returns to Minnesota, his upside will be severely limited by the presence of Smith.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
