Sean

McGrath

Veteran Evan Moore is expected to be released in a corresponding move. Undrafted out of Henderson State, McGrath will be the third tight end behind Zach Miller and Anthony McCoy.

With Travis Kelce (knee) and Anthony Fasano (ankle) both sidelined, McGrath managed to haul in all four of his targets. The only part of his game that stood out, however, was his unseemly beard. Keep McGrath quarantined to the waiver wire.

With Anthony Fasano (ankle) and Travis Kelce (knee) remaining sidelined, McGrath has emerged as the Chiefs No. 1 tight end. And despite playing like a poor man’s Scott Chandler, he’s on pace to catch 44 passes for 504 yards with four touchdowns. It won’t last. McGrath’s fluky line isn’t worth chasing as the 4-0 Chiefs head to Tennessee in Week 5.

McGrath caught dump-down passes from Alex Smith between the numbers, topping 50 yards for the second straight game. He’s only playing so much because Anthony Fasano and Travis Kelce are banged up. McGrath will not be a realistic bye-week filler play when the Chiefs face the lowly Raiders in Week 6.

Fasano will most likely be out for Sunday’s game against the Redskins, leaving starting tight end duties to Sean McGrath. McGrath filled in ably for Fasano earlier this season, but is barely on the TE2 radar.

Anthony Fasano (knee) was inactive again, leaving the Bearded Wonder to play every down at tight end. He responded with a surprisingly crisp goal-line slant route, converting it for a six-yard touchdown. McGrath would be a weak TE2 against the Colts in Week 16 even if Fasano sits again. He has limited athletic ability and plays in a very conservative passing attack.

McGrath was a solid fill-in for Fasano earlier in the season, but drew only three targets in a blowout. Fasano could return as early as Week 15, keeping McGrath off the TE2 radar in re-draft leagues.

A second-year undrafted free agent, McGrath showed well in limited duty this season, catching 26 passes for 302 yards and two touches. Thanks largely to injuries to Anthony Fasano, McGrath played 622 snaps. He showed a nice pair of hands, but struggled as a blocker. He has an inside bead on a 2014 roster spot, but still needs to have a strong camp and preseason. McGrath isn’t much of an option in Dynasty leagues. He’s 26 and has limited athleticism.

McGrath was an exclusive rights free agent. Known for his beard, McGrath is an adept blocker. He caught two passes last season.

A fourth-year undrafted free agent, McGrath caught 26 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns for the Chiefs in 2013, but “retired” the following July. After a year out of football, the Henderson State product has decided to give it another chance. McGrath has proven he can hang in the league, but he’s going to have a hard time cracking Indy’s loaded tight end corps.
