Chuba Hubbard Unlikely to Hold a Bell-Cow Role in 2026

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard's RB15 finish in 2024 made him a popular early-to-mid-round pick in 2025, but after missing time and ceding primary early down work to a more efficient Rico Dowdle upon his return, he finished as the RB40. Dowdle, who was on a one-year deal, has been vocal about wanting to […]

49ers Set to Name Raheem Morris Their Defensive Coordinator

The San Francisco 49ers are working to make former Falcons head coach Raheem Morris their next defensive coordinator. Morris is expected to replace former coordinator Robert Saleh, who was hired as the Titans' head coach shortly after the 49ers' season-ending loss to the Seahawks in the Divisional Round of the playoffs. The Seahawks were able […]

Raiders Close to Naming Klint Kubiak the Next Head Coach

The Las Vegas Raiders intend to make Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak their next head coach. Las Vegas can't officially hire the 38-year-old Kubiak until after Super Bowl LX, but reports indicate that he intends to work out a deal after interviewing with the Raiders this week. The Seahawks' 28.4 points per game in 2025 […]

Cardinals Finalizing Deal to Make Mike LaFleur the Next Head Coach

The Arizona Cardinals are working to finalize a five-year deal to make Rams offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur their next head coach. LaFleur has spent the past three seasons as the offensive coordinator in Los Angeles after two years in the same position with the New York Jets. The Rams led the NFL in both offensive […]

Michael Pittman Jr. Could Benefit From Change of Scenery

Indianapolis wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. carries an expected $29 million salary cap hit into 2026, but the Colts could clear all but $5 million by cutting him before the new league year. With Alec Pierce coming off his first 1,000-yard campaign and set for unrestricted free agency, the belief around Indianapolis is that the […]

Sam LaPorta in Line for Post-Injury Bounce-Back

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta was on a 17-game pace of 76 receptions for 924 yards and six touchdowns before a back injury prematurely ended his season. Expected to be healthy for the 2026 season, LaPorta should see heavy involvement in new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing's tight end-friendly system. With Petzing calling plays in […]

Keon Coleman's Value Dropping Drastically After Sophomore Season

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman hasn't played a game since mid-January, but perhaps no player has had a rougher transition into the offseason. After a disappointing sophomore season that saw him catch 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns, Coleman's name was front and center as the Bills transitioned from long-time head coach […]

Tyrone Tracy Jr. Sees Volume and Efficiency Dip in Sophomore Season

New York Giants sophomore running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. saw his total touches and yards per touch drop from Year 1 to Year 2, as he missed some games early, spent time clearly running behind rookie Cam Skattebo, and never truly established himself as the Giants' lead back until late in the year after Skattebo's […]

2026 Dynasty Rookie Mock Draft: 10-Team, 1QB Fantasy Football Rankings

With the college football season officially over, we’re effectively working with a complete data set until the pre-draft process kicks into full gear, making this the perfect time to revisit rookie rankings, this time through a 10-team lens. When we shift the math from 12 teams to 10, the waiver wire suddenly becomes a kinder, […]

Rashid Shaheed's Impact Likely Contained to Special Teams

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed was largely responsible for putting last week's Divisional Round rubber match with the 49ers out of hand from the jump, returning the opening kickoff for a touchdown in a game that was never close. The play marked Shaheed's third special teams score since being acquired from the New Orleans […]

Jaleel McLaughlin Unlikely to Find Much Running Room Against New England

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin should continue to be the primary change-of-pace back behind rookie RJ Harvey, with J.K. Dobbins remaining on Injured Reserve after a week of limited practices. In Denver's Divisional Round win over a Bills team that came into the playoffs with one of the worst run defenses in the league, […]

Marvin Mims Jr. Could be Critical to Broncos' Success in AFC Championship

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. is coming off his best performance of the season after leading the team with eight receptions for 93 yards and a touchdown in last Saturday's overtime win over the Bills. If the Broncos and backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham are to have any success moving the ball against an […]

Tyler Higbee the Potential Odd Man Out Against Seattle

Los Angeles Rams veteran tight end Tyler Higbee has seen his usage and productivity decline in each of his three games since returning from an ankle injury in Week 18. In his first game back after missing nearly two months of action, he led the team in receiving yards and scored his third touchdown of […]

Terrance Ferguson Looking to Regain Late-Season Form

Los Angeles Rams rookie tight end Terrance Ferguson recorded a touchdown in each of his final two regular-season games. After missing two weeks with a hamstring injury, he returned for last week's Divisional Round win over the Bears and was targeted five times. Unfortunately, he was able to collect only one of those looks, finishing […]

Blake Corum Could See Limited Work Against Elite Run Defense

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum handled only six touches in the team's Divisional Round win over the Bears, and in Sunday's Conference Championship, he faces a Seahawks defense that ranked as the most formidable against fantasy running backs in the regular season. In their Divisional Round thrashing of the 49ers, Seattle held MVP […]

Jarrett Stidham Likely to Face Heavy Pressure in AFC Championship Game

Throughout his NFL career, Denver Broncos quarterback Jarrett Stidham has played at a respectable level from a clean pocket while struggling mightily under pressure, with his completion rate dropping roughly 30% in such situations. Against a mostly healthy Patriots defense that has allowed 74 total yards to running backs through their first two playoff games, […]

Colby Parkinson a Safe but Unspectacular Option in Conference Championship

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has seen the team's third-highest target share through two playoff games, trailing only All-Pro receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. His 90 receiving yards through those two contests also rank third, but with rookie Terrance Ferguson returning for the Rams' Divisional Round victory over the Bears, and Los […]

Steelers Finalizing Deal to Make Mike McCarthy Their Head Coach

The Pittsburgh Steelers are working towards a deal to make former Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy their fourth head coach since 1969. A former head coach of the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers, the 62-year-old McCarthy is a Pittsburgh native who will now take over for Mike Tomlin after […]

Jordan Whittington Scarcely Used in Return From Knee Injury

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington was the wideout most frequently on the field with Puka Nacua and Davante Adams in three-receiver sets in Sunday's Divisional Round win over the Bears. However, his two targets in the overtime win were only the seventh most on his own team, and he was largely a non-factor […]

Marvin Mims Jr. Sees Season Highs Across the Board in Divisional Round

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. saw season highs in offensive snaps, targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns in the team's Divisional Round win over the Bills. Denver seemed to come out of the gates with a clear gameplan, feeding rookie Pat Bryant (concussion) on the first three passing plays of the game. However, when […]

Tyler Higbee Slips Down the Depth Chart

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee was on the field for 39 offensive snaps in the team's Wild Card win over the Panthers, catching two of his three targets for 45 yards. However, with rookie Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) back from a two-week absence, Higbee took only eight snaps in Sunday's Divisional Round win over […]

Blake Corum Sees Usage Dip in Divisional Round

Los Angeles running back Blake Corum, who had carved out a healthy role in the Rams' backfield in the second half of the season, saw only six total opportunities to Kyren Williams' 26 in the team's Divisional Round win over the Bears. The narrative heading into the playoffs had been that Los Angeles was saving […]

Jaleel McLaughlin Unlikely to Factor into AFC Championship Game

Denver running back Jaleel McLaughlin totaled 21 yards on four touches in the Broncos' overtime win over the Bills in the Divisional Round. With the team opening the practice window of J.K. Dobbins (foot) ahead of the AFC Championship Game, McLaughlin may see even fewer touches against a Patriots defense that has been dominant against […]

2026 Dynasty Fantasy Football Rookie Mock Draft: 1QB Leagues

The fantasy football season is officially over. Trophies have been handed out, group chats have gone quiet, and attention now turns to the next important football event of the year. No, not the Super Bowl. The Panini Senior Bowl in Mobile, Alabama. While redraft managers are selling themselves on the myth of stress-free football viewing, […]

Josh Allen to Play at Less Than 100%, Will Have No Limitations

Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen (foot) is battling three separate ailments, and he will not be at 100% when the Bills take on the Denver Broncos to open the Divisional Round on Saturday. Still, he is not expected to have any limitations, according to NFL reporter Cameron Wolfe. Allen visited the blue medical tent multiple times […]

John Harbaugh, Giants Finalize Five-Year Deal

John Harbaugh and the New York Giants have officially finalized a five-year deal to make him the team's newest head coach and the first domino to fall in this year's coaching cycle. Harbaugh had been fired from the same position with the Baltimore Ravens after missing the playoffs for the first time since 2021, and […]

Courtland Sutton a Strong Play in Fantasy Playoff Leagues

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton, making his 2026 playoff debut on Saturday, will face a Bills defensive unit missing three of their starters, including Jordan Poyer and Maxwell Hairston in the secondary. A similarly banged-up Buffalo defense saw Jacksonville wide receiver Parker Washington put up 107 yards and a touchdown in a back-and-forth Wild […]

RJ Harvey Faces Plus Matchup in Playoff Debut

Denver Broncos rookie running back RJ Harvey makes his playoff debut on Saturday against a Bills defense that ranked 26th in the NFL against fantasy running backs in the regular season. Down the stretch, in particular, Buffalo's defense was viewed as a run funnel, with teams finding more success on the ground than through the […]

Ty Johnson Inactive for Divisional Round

Buffalo Bills running back Ty Johnson (ankle) will be inactive when the Bills face the Broncos to kick off the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs on Saturday. Johnson, who missed the team's Wild Card win over the Jaguars with an ankle injury, was able to return to practice on Thursday in a limited capacity, […]

Josh Allen Remains a Must-Start in All Fantasy Playoff Leagues

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen finished Sunday's Wild-Card win over the Jaguars with 273 passing yards, 33 rushing yards, and three total touchdowns despite playing with a banged-up and underwhelming receiving corps. The Bills placed Joshua Palmer (ankle) on Injured Reserve one day before the game and lost Gabe Davis (knee) to a torn ACL […]
