Rest-of-Season Projections
Still has concussion symptoms
Fleener, an unrestricted free agent, still has symptoms from the concussion he suffered Week 12 last season, Don Banks of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Released by New Orleans in May, the 29-year-old tight end hopes to continue his career but isn't sure if/when he'll be healthy enough to do so. It won't come as any surprise if he ultimately retires, considering he's been diagnosed with five concussions from playing football and has accrued more than $23 million in career earnings, per OverTheCap. That said, Fleener's agent has heard from teams with interest in signing the tight end if he can eventually pass the NFL's concussion protocol.

Fleener's tantalizing upside has yet to be truly realized, and it's looking doubtful he'll ever reach the heights many expected of the 2012 second-rounder. Uniting with Drew Brees in New Orleans was supposed to do the trick, but Fleener struggled with his consistency during both of his two season with the Saints and the tight end now finds himself unsigned on the free-agent market. To make matters worse, Fleener is still working his way back from a concussion he suffered 11 games into the 2017 season. Given the league's recent history with head injuries, the 29-year-old's health status makes him a risky investment for any club that may be interested, which naturally deflates his number of potential suitors. In turn, Fleener makes for a similarly risky fantasy investment, one that should be avoided in all but the deepest of leagues ahead of the 2018 campaign.
