49ers | Niles Paul released Fri Aug 2, 06:18 PM
San Francisco 49ers TE Niles Paul was released Friday, Aug. 2. The team also claimed TE Daniel Helm off waivers from the Los Angeles Chargers.
Footballguys view: Paul only lasted a week with the 49ers. He'll be hard pressed to find work and is only an end-of-the-bench guy if he does get signed. |

Footballguys view: The Jaguars are quite banged up at the tight end position. Paul and Austin Seferian-Jenkins are now both on Injured Reserve. That's why they signed Blake Bell on Tuesday. The Jaguars have James O'Shaughnessy as their top tight end backed up by David Grinnage and Bell. |

Redskins | Coach happy with Niles Paul Thu Aug 17, 07:39 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul has been one of the most impressive players during training camp, according to head coach Jay Gruden. Paul has worked at all of the tight end spots and can play fullback.
Footballguys view: This is notable for the fact that Jordan Reed is often heard and has never completed an entire season. So Paul may end up as a pass-catching weapon for Washington at some point this season. This news really just let you know that he'll be on the field a lot, though as long as Reed and the wide receivers are healthy his impact from a fantasy standpoint should be super low. |

Redskins | Niles Paul competing for spot Fri Jun 9, 10:09 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul is likely fighting for a roster spot after TE Jeremy Sprinkle was drafted in April.
Footballguys view: The language of the NFL is money, and Washington can save $1.9 million from cutting Paul. He's only played in eight games over the last two years (0 in 2015) due to injury. Sprinkle is a classic "Y" tight end with the size to be a good in-line blocker for Washington. |

Redskins | Niles Paul on the mend Sun Feb 12, 08:19 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (shoulder) described his progression from shoulder surgery as 'crazy', and he said he is focusing on being physically and mentally healthy for 2017 after two years of injuries.
Footballguys view: There's no guarantee that Paul will return in 2017 with a cap hit of $1.75 million. He flashed in 2014 with 39 catches for 507 yards, but since then he's missed all of 2015 and eight games in 2016. If healthy...finally...Paul would provide depth behind Jordan Reed. The team is likely to bring Vernon Davis back as he's set to hit the open market. |

Redskins | Niles Paul practices Wed May 25, 10:29 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (ankle) participated in team drills during organized team activities Wednesday, May 25.
Footballguys view: Paul is stuck behind Jordan Reed if Reed is healthy, as the latter had 952 yards and 11 touchdowns in just 14 games. Paul missed all of last season after he had a gruesome ankle injury but is already well ahead of his rehab schedule. |
Niles Paul player page
Redskins | Niles Paul has added weight Wed May 25, 03:34 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul appears to have bulked up this offseason as the Redskins started organized team activities this week. Paul gained at least 20 pounds last offseason but lost all of that weight while sitting out due to his ankle injury.
Footballguys view: Paul is a good reserve TE for Washington, but he's not going to do much so long as Jordan Reed is healthy. With Vernon Davis behind Reed, Paul is not a number three TE. |
Niles Paul player page
Redskins | Niles Paul likely out until camp Wed Mar 23, 08:45 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (ankle) likely will not be able to participate until training camp. Paul needs to regain strength in his ankle and also needs to add some weight. Paul could see time at fullback if the team decides to keep four tight ends on the final roster.
Footballguys view: Paul's injury came early in the 2015 campaign, so this isn't a great sign as to the potential long term effects of this injury. Jordan Reed ruled the red zone by the end of the season, and Paul doesn't seem to have a chance to pull even with him with a lost offseason. The converted wide receiver had overtaken Reed on the depth chart before his injury. |

Redskins | Niles Paul should be ready for workouts Sun Jan 31, 03:58 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (ankle) should be ready for the start of offseason workouts and will work as the team's No. 2 tight end.
Footballguys view: Paul has flashed quality talent during his pro career, but he's also struggled with nagging injuries. He should work behind Jordan Reed, and Paul makes for an interesting prospect to hold onto in deep dynasty leagues. |

Redskins | Niles Paul out for year Fri Aug 14, 12:07 AM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (ankle) will need surgery to repair a fractured ankle and will miss the entire season, head coach Jay Gruden said Thursday, Aug. 13.
Footballguys view: Paul had just risen to the top of the depth chart after signing a new deal and having the best offseason of his career. Jordan Reed is now uncontested for tight end targets in this offense and moves back into the upside TE2 tier. Reed has had injury problems throughout his career, so tight end could be a real sore spot for Washington, who is also missing Logan Paulsen right now. |

Redskins | Niles Paul leaves practice early Mon Aug 10, 07:00 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (shoulder) left practice early Monday, Aug. 10, because of a shoulder injury and did not talk to reporters after practice. The team said Paul is being evaluated.
Footballguys view: Paul was labeled as the first-team tight end on Washington's first depth chart. He's ahead of oft-injured Jordan Reed, and now Paul's banged up. We'll know more about the severity of this injury in the near future. |
Niles Paul player page
Redskins | Niles Paul added weight in offseason Mon Aug 10, 06:31 PM
Washington Redskins WR Niles Paul added around 27 pounds this offseason in order to be a better blocker against some of the bigger defensive ends in the NFL. Paul also worked on Olympic-style weightlifting, which helps with lower-body explosiveness.

Redskins | Niles Paul a starter for now Mon Aug 10, 03:09 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul is considered the starting tight end at this point because he is more complete player than TE Jordan Reed, according to head coach Jay Gruden.
Footballguys view: Reed is a talented player, but he's oft-injured. Paul is the starter now, and Reed may not be able to do enough to overtake him. We may end up seeing some form of TEBC in Washington. That scenario would end up frustrating fantasy owners. |
Niles Paul player page
Jordan Reed player page
Redskins | Jordan Reed ready for healthy season Fri Aug 7, 01:52 PM
Washington Redskins TE Jordan Reed spent the offseason changing his eating habits in order to help him stay healthy in 2015. He missed seven games in his rookie season, five games last year and was out this spring after a knee issue that required surgery. Reed has cut out bread, fried foods and sweets from his diet and is only eating grilled or baked chicken. He is also making an effort to stretch more before workouts. Reed feels like he can finally play a full season in 2015. Catching passes hasn't been an issue for Reed, but blocking has been his weak suite, and the Redskins often use TEs Logan Paulsen and Niles Paul in their two-tight end sets, especially if it's a run play. Reed feels that he is stronger and has more burst after strengthening the left side of his body and leg, and he's also added eight pounds of muscle but is leaner.
Footballguys view: Reed is still one of the most fragile players in the league by track record, and Niles Paul was re-signed by the team this offseason, indicating a strong 2TE approach. Reed is an upside TE2 to target late in PPR leagues, but that's it. |
Logan Paulsen player page

Redskins | Niles Paul ready if needed Sat Jul 11, 03:45 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul is prepared to step in and start if TE Jordan Reed struggles with injuries again this season. Paul practiced some with the first team this offseason and head coach Jay Gruden praised his development. Reed will start if and when he's healthy, but Reed has missed 12 games in his first two seasons in the league.
Footballguys view: Paul is a converted wide receiver who has terrific speed for a tight end. Washington must like him because they signed Paul to a three-year deal with 2.25 million guaranteed before Paul could hit free agency this offseason. He proved to be a viable bye/injury/emergency level play when Reed was out last year. |

Redskins | Niles Paul re-signs with Redskins Fri Mar 6, 12:20 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul re-signed Friday, March 6. Paul could earn up to a little under $10 million with the new contract.
Footballguys view: Paul could have attracted some interest on the open market from teams like the Falcons. Instead, he stays with Washington where he will compete with Jordan Reed for the starting job. We like his upside, so consider him a sleeper TE in 2015--especially if he wins the starting job and a larger role. |

Falcons | Atlanta interested in Niles Paul? Tue Mar 3, 02:07 PM
Washington Redskins impending free-agent TE Niles Paul figures to draw interest from the Atlanta Falcons once the free agency period begins.
Footballguys view: This is a less expensive option than Julius Thomas. Paul is familiar with offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan's scheme and TE Levine Toilolo hasn't exactly proven himself to be the answer at the position. If healthy, we'd love Paul in a passing game that already features WRs Julio Jones and Roddy White. |

Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (concussion) is expected to play in Week 5 after being cleared for full practice participation Friday, Oct. 3.
Footballguys view: While Jordan Reed is still 50/50 to play according to reports. Paul is good to go. Washington might decide to hold Reed out another week since that's the case and Paul has been outstanding while Reed was out. We see Paul as a high-end TE2 in Week 5. |
Niles Paul player page
Redskins | Niles Paul on the field Fri Oct 3, 06:57 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (concussion) fully participated in practice Friday, Oct. 3.
Footballguys view: Paul should be good to go for the Monday night game against the Seahawks. We should see the return of Jordan Reed as well. This makes a clustered TE situation in a bad matchup. Paul is a low-end TE1 at best. The game is Monday, so start better options if you can. |
Redskins | Niles Paul limited Thu Oct 2, 03:12 PM
Washington Redskins TE Niles Paul (concussion) was limited during practice Thursday, Oct. 2.
Footballguys view: Paul and Jordan Reed are both banged up but either one can have value if they are playing. While the matchup is tough and Cousins just imploded recently, the reality is Washington uses its tight ends. Unfortunately, if both of them are on the field you may see them cut into both of their production. Paul showed a lot while Reed was out, so if Reed is out, he could produce some TE2 numbers and we know Reed can play and do the same if he's active. |
