Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Activated off COVID-19 list
Devin Asiasi was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.Asiasi’s return coincides with fellow 2020 draft pick Dalton Keene shifting to injured reserve with a knee injury. The offseason signings of Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith have essentially assured Asiasi will be primarily a special teams asset this season provided the expensive duo stays healthy.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Tests positive for COVID-19
Devin Asiasi (illness) has tested positive for COVID-19 and is practicing virtually, Ryan Hannable of WEEI.com reports.Asiasi is considered ‘out indefinitely’ according to Hannable, but Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports that the second-year tight end is only experiencing mild symptoms, and that he’s targeting a return to the field as soon as he’s cleared all of the league’s protocols related to COVID-19. David Wells is expected to handle increased reps behind Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith until Asiasi is cleared for a return.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Solid effort in OTAs
Devin Asiasi, who caught just two passes in nine games as a rookie last season, “quietly put together a solid spring,” according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.That said, the 2020 third-rounder sits no higher than third on the New England Patriots’ tight end depth chart following the team’s offseason additions of Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry in free agency. Asiasi thus profiles as a depth option as the coming season approaches and is off the fantasy radar as long as Smith and Henry are available. Also in the team’s TE mix behind the top duo are Dalton Keene, Matt LaCosse and Troy Fumagalli.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Limited production as rookie
Devin Asiasi finished the 2020 season with two catches on seven targets for 39 yards yards and a TD in nine games.Meanwhile, fellow rookie tight end Dalton Keene caught three passes for 16 yards in six contests. It was hardly the production the New England Patriots were looking for when using a pair of third-round draft picks to secure the duo, but both players do possess some long-term upside. It’s a bit early to assess Asiasi’s 2021 fantasy prospects, however, with personnel changes in the team’s offense likely on tap this offseason, both at TE and QB.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Sees 47 snaps on offense
Devin Asiasi was on the field for 47 of the New England Patriots’ 50 snaps on offense in Monday night’s 38-9 loss to the Bills.Despite the season high in playing time, Asiasi was targeted just twice and didn’t record a catch Monday. With the 2020 third-rounder still looking for his first NFL catch, Asiasi remains off the fantasy radar heading into Week 17.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Posts 23 snaps in return to action
Devin Asiasi logged 23 of a possible 59 snaps on offense in Thursday’s 24-3 loss to the Rams.Meanwhile, fellow rookie tight end Dalton Keene was out there for 31 snaps, but neither player caught a pass Thursday. With Ryan Izzo (hamstring/hand/neck) on IR and Jordan Thomas having been a healthy scratch Week 14, both Asiasi — who saw one target versus the Rams — and Keene could be incorporated more in the New England Patriots offense down the stretch. Until that happens, however, neither player merits fantasy consideration.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Comes off IR
Devin Asiasi (undisclosed) has been activated off IR in advance of Thursday night’s game against the Rams, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.Meanwhile, Ryan Izzo (hamstring/hand/neck) was placed on IR, leaving Asiasi, Dalton Keene and Jordan Thomas as the New England Patriots’ available tight ends Week 14. Though Asiasi has some long-term potential, he has yet to record a catch through his first five games as a pro and therefore has much to prove before he can be considered for fantasy lineups.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Moves to injured reserve
Devin Asiasi (personal) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.The 23-year-old missed Sunday’s loss to Buffalo due to personal reasons, but it’s unclear why he was moved to injured reserve. Asiasi will be sidelined for at least the next three games. He’s played only 81 snaps in five games this season, so his absence is unlikely to impact New England’s gameplans.

Patriots’ Devin Asiasi: Won’t be available Week 8
Devin Asiasi didn’t travel with the New England Patriots to Buffalo due to personal reasons and won’t be available for Sunday’s game against the Bills.Though Ryan Izzo (seven receptions for 90 yards in six games) has been one of the NFL’s least-productive starting tight ends, neither Asiasi nor fellow rookie Dalton Keene (knee) has been able to make a major push for reps during their rookie seasons. Asiasi’s absence Week 8 could still prove costly from a depth standpoint, as the Patriots would have no other available tight ends behind Izzo if Keene — who is listed as questionable — is unable to suit up.
