Hendershot was just recently traded from Dallas to Kansas City for a seventh-round draft pick. He appears to currently occupy the fourth spot on the depth chart for the tight ends and will likely be inactive for most games, barring an injury.

Fantasy Impact

Hendershot was initially expected to be cut by Dallas, but Kansas City swooped in to get Hendershot for cheap before he was made available on the waiver wire. The third-year TE has played in 25 games, starting three. He caught 15 passes for 141 yards in two years while with the Cowboys. Hendershot will see snaps as a depth TE on a K.C. offense that likes to utilize multi-TE sets.

The Cowboys have waived TE Peyton Hendershot.

Fantasy Impact

Hendershot will hit the waiver wire and should draw significant interest from teams in need of depth at tight end. He tallied 141 yards and two touchdowns on 15 receptions in 25 games over two seasons with Dallas.

Peyton Hendershot caught his lone target for six yards in the Cowboys' 20-19 win over the Detroit Lions in Week 17.

Fantasy Impact

Hendershot continues to see minimal involvement in the Dallas offense, finishing with one reception or less in each of his last four games for the Cowboys. Fantasy managers will be better served relying on a more consistent option ahead of a Week 18 matchup against the Washington Commanders.
