Won't be tendered
Yelder won't be tendered by the Chiefs, making him an unrestricted free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Yelder caught just seven passes in 14 games last season. The 26-year-old tight end hasn't shown the ability to be a difference-maker in the NFL up to this point.

Activated off injured reserve
Yelder (groin) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: Yelder managed to return to practice earlier this week, so it seemed destined the backup tight end would return in time for the Super Bowl. In 14 games this season, Yelder has recorded seven receptions for 36 yards.

Set to return to practice
Yelder (groin) is slated to return to practice this week, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: With that, Yelder now has been designated to return from IR, and it's possible that he could be activated for Sunday's Super Bowl against the Buccaneers. If so, he'd provide the team with tight end depth behind Travis Kelce, Nick Keizer and Ricky Seals-Jones.

Lands on IR
Yelder (groin) has been placed on IR by Kansas City.
Analysis: With Yelder on IR, Ricky Seals-Jones has been activated from Kansas City's practice squad to serve as the team's No. 3 tight end behind Travis Kelce and Nick Keizer.

Questionable for divisional round
Yelder (groin) is questionable for Sunday's AFC divisional-round game against the Browns, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.
Analysis: Yelder will handle a depth role at tight end if he's able to play Sunday, but Kansas City's target distribution will be essentially unchanged if he's sidelined. In 14 regular-season games in 2020, Yelder only saw 11 targets.

Minimal production in 2020
Yelder compiled just seven catches for 36 yards on 11 targets during the 2020 campaign.
Analysis: Yelder appeared in 14 games for the Chiefs and logged 194 offensive snaps, but it's not hard to understand why he saw very few balls tossed his direction in a Chiefs passing offense loaded with talent. Yelder's two-year deal with the Chiefs expires this offseason, but he remains a restricted free agent and would return to Kansas City if the front office elects to match any offers from other clubs.

No targets Sunday
Yelder wasn't targeted during Sunday's 22-16 win over Denver.
Analysis: The 25-year-old has played 15 offensive snaps in each of the past three games and has one catch for two yards during that stretch. Yelder should continue working as Kansas City's No. 3 tight end behind Travis Kelce and Nick Keizer.

Ready to rock
Yelder (groin) was a full participant in Monday's practice.
Analysis: Yelder dealt with a groin strain throughout training camp, but he's managed to put the issue behind him ahead of Thursday's season opener against the Texans. He's set to contribute as a reserve option in Kansas City's tight end corps.

Suits up Monday
Yelder (groin) saw action during Monday's practice, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: It was certainly good news that Yelder suited up in Monday's padded practice, as he was dealing with a groin strain for the past few weeks. However, it's still unclear whether Yelder will be ready to go for Week 1 of the regular season. Yelder is expected to be the third-string tight end behind Travis Kelce and Ricky Seals-Jones.

Tending to groin injury
Head coach Andy Reid said Sunday that Yelder is battling a slight groin strain, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Reid portrayed this as a mild injury, so there shouldn't be much concern about Yelder's availability for the season opener on Sept. 10 against the Texans. Yelder is expected to be the third-string tight end behind Travis Kelce and Ricky Seals-Jones.

Staying with Chiefs
Yelder has officially signed his exclusive-rights tender with the Chiefs, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Yelder currently is projected as the No. 3 tight end on the Chiefs' roster heading into the 2020 season behind Travis Kelce and Ricky Seals-Jones. The 25-year-old Yelder recorded three receptions for 50 yards last year.

Minimal 2019 impact
Yelder collected just three passes for 50 yards on four targets during 2019.
Analysis: Yelder was a darkhorse candidate to see some run behind Travis Kelce at the tight end position but that never really materialized, with the second-year tight end remaining behind Blake Bell for reps. While Bell is set to become an unrestricted free agent, Yelder is an exclusive-rights free agent, meaning the Chiefs could tender him a league-minimum contract and keep him around for another season. Even if Yelder is back and Bell is gone, Yelder remains unlikely to receive much fantasy attention…read more
