2022 Fantasy Outlook
Primarily a blocking tight end, Blanton made it off the practice squad Week 7 but didn't produce any meaningful fantasy production until the playoffs, when he caught a touchdown in the divisional round and snagged all five targets for 57 yards in the NFC Championship Game. Tyler Higbee is coming off an MCL sprain, so Blanton and fellow tight end Brycen Hopkins could be leaned upon more heavily at the start of the season as Higbee works his way into playing shape.

ANALYSIS
Blanton spent time on Kansas City's practice squad during the 2022 season after being cut by the Rams. With Los Angeles, he suited up for four games and secured both of his targets for 35 yards. He will spend the offseason competing to secure a role with the Chiefs.
