Fails to make an impact
Long failed to bring in either of his two targets during Saturday's 13-9 victory against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
The battle to start the season as the No. 2 tight end behind Colby Parkinson while Tyler Higbee (knee) remains on the mend, seems to be leaning toward Davis Allen. Long hasn't done anything to make himself stand out over the second-year pro, and Allen showed enough when called upon in the latter half of the 2023 campaign to secure a roster spot. Long will likely be the tertiary option at tight end to start the year unless he breaks out in a big way against the Texans in the Rams' preseason finale, and he will likely struggle to find snaps on offense even before Higbee's eventual return.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Acquired in the trade that sent Jalen Ramsey to Miami, the second-year bruiser spent the vast majority of his snaps for the Dolphins as a blocker, and saw just one target over 101 snaps in 2022. Tyler Higbee and Brycen Hopkins are entrenched as the starting tight ends, and the Rams rarely utilized any depth tight ends (29 total snaps outside the starting two tight ends in 2022), which leaves little hope for Long to make much of an impact in Year 3.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could join Jaguars
In his 2021 Day Two draft projection, Steve Muench of Scouts Inc. suggests that the Jaguars could take Long 45th overall.
ANALYSIS
The Jaguars declined Tyler Eifert's contract option and could use a another pass-catching option at tight end to bolster the supporting cast of top overall pick, QB Trevor Lawrence. Per Muench, Long, a Boston College product, "has the speed and frame to make plays down the seam, plus he has some upside as an open-field runner after the catch."
