Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (lower body) exited Saturday's training camp practice early with an apparent lower body injury, according to Courtney R. Cronin of ESPN. Burden sustained the injury when he collided with teammate defensive back Tyrique Stevenson while Stevenson broke up a pass from quarterback Caleb Williams. According to Cronin, Burden […]

ESPN's Jamison Hensley writes that "in 27 years of covering the Ravens, I'm not sure I've seen a rookie have a training camp quite like" wide receiver Ja'Kobi Lane. The 22-year-old third-rounder from USC has had a highlight-reel catch every day this summer. Lane made an impressive one-handed catch with the starters in camp practice […]

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson was one of Dak Prescott's favorite options near the goal line last season, and that still gives him a path to TE1 value. Ferguson caught a career-high 82 passes for 600 yards and eight touchdowns on 102 targets, finishing TE7 in half-PPR. He also drew 23 red-zone targets, catching […]

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Ty Simpson will play in the team's first preseason game, head coach Sean McVay told reporters Saturday. McVay said the rookie will "definitely" see action, while he has not decided whether Stetson Bennett IV will play. Simpson was the 13th overall pick in April and is competing with Bennett for the […]

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz was busy last year. He saw 106 targets, caught a career-high 82 passes for 777 yards and three touchdowns, and finished as the TE11. Finding that much work again could be difficult. Nico Collins is still the top receiver, Jayden Higgins is coming off a 41-catch, 525-yard rookie season […]

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings is going late enough in drafts that last year's drop in yardage shouldn't scare fantasy managers away. Jennings caught 55 passes for 643 yards in 15 games for San Francisco, but he also scored a career-high nine touchdowns while playing through a collection of injuries that included five broken […]

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb had a down 2025 by his standards, but there is not much of a discount attached to it. He missed three full games with a high ankle sprain and still caught 75 passes for 1,077 yards on 117 targets. The three touchdowns were a career low, which is probably […]

Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa didn't do much between the 20s as a rookie, but six touchdowns on 16 catches made it hard to ignore what his size can add to this offense. Detroit is giving him more to do now. The 24-year-old enters camp as the clear No. 3 receiver behind Amon-Ra St. […]

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson is much easier to take a chance on now that his cost has slipped into the later rounds. He caught 51 of 66 targets for 438 yards and three touchdowns in 15 games last season, finishing TE22 in PPR after a TE34 finish in 2024. That's a long way […]

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver De'Zhaun Stribling (hamstring) returned to 11-on-11 work Saturday after dealing with hamstring tightness, according to Noah Furtado. The rookie had been unavailable for team work earlier this week, so getting back into full-speed reps is a good step after the 49ers took a cautious approach with the issue. Stribling had […]

New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. doesn't need a workhorse role to pay off at his current 41.9 ADP. He is coming off a strong final season in Jacksonville, rushing for 1,107 yards and seven touchdowns while adding 36 catches for 292 yards and six more scores. The Saints clearly wanted him, giving […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is being drafted around 31st overall, almost exactly where RotoBaller has him ranked, and that price looks reasonable entering 2026. Hall handled a career-high 243 carries for 1,065 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games last season, adding 36 catches for 350 yards and another score. The receiving […]

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton is in line for more snaps in 2026, but that alone does not solve the fantasy problem. He caught only 19 of 37 targets last season, although those receptions went for 438 yards and three touchdowns. Thornton did most of that damage early, posting 13 catches for 272 […]

Washington Commanders left tackle Laremy Tunsil will undergo testing after leaving Saturday's practice with an apparent shoulder or neck issue, according to Mike Garafolo. Tunsil was injured during a one-on-one rep against Odafe Oweh before being evaluated in the medical tent and walking back to the team facility with trainers. Garafolo said there does not […]

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins and defensive end Maxx Crosby will both be held out of Saturday's practice after violating team rules during Friday's altercation, according to Adam Schefter. Head coach Klint Kubiak made the decision after the two got into it during team drills. Crosby made contact with Cousins on multiple plays before […]

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers (quadriceps) left Saturday's practice after colliding with safety Jaylinn Hawkins during seven-on-seven work, according to Jamison Hensley. Flowers immediately went to the ground and had trouble getting back to his feet while trainers examined his left leg. He eventually walked back to the facility under his own power and […]

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr. has reportedly fallen behind Riley Leonard in the competition for the backup job, according to Evan Sidery. Sidery reports that Richardson has been moved to third string behind starter Daniel Jones and Leonard after an uneven start to training camp. The former No. 4 overall pick has flashed his […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton had a nice one-handed touchdown catch from quarterback Baker Mayfield during a red-zone period in training camp practice on Friday, according to Brianna Dix of Buccaneers.com. Otton has an elite catch radius and is a QB-friendly target for the veteran Mayfield, and Dix notes that Otton became a […]

Baltimore Ravens rookie fourth-round wide receiver Elijah Sarratt is competing for the WR3 role in training camp this summer behind Zay Flowers and Rashod Bateman, according to Clifton Brown of BaltimoreRavens.com. The fact that the Ravens haven't signed a veteran wideout to help improve their WR depth will give both Sarratt and fellow rookie Ja'Kobi […]

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) is not wearing a sleeve on his leg at training camp practice on Saturday and is running better than he has since his injury earlier this week, according to DNVR Sports' Zac Stevens. The Broncos held Waddle out of practices this week as a precaution after he dealt […]

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. (undisclosed) pulled up on a go route in training camp practice on Friday and is not on the field on Saturday, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. It's unclear exactly what the specific nature of Mims' injury is, but it will keep him out for at least […]

Philadelphia Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson said on Saturday that "it's looking like this will potentially be my last year," according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Johnson, a six-time Pro Bowler and two-time first-team All-Pro, is entering his 14th NFL season in 2026, all with the Eagles after they selected him fourth overall […]

With Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. standing out in training camp, veteran Jakobi Meyers could find himself the third option in the passing game. After being traded to the Jaguars from the Las Vegas Raiders last season, Meyers hauled in 42 of 61 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns […]

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Khalil Shakir is likely to see reduced volume in the 2026 season following the team's offseason moves. Over the past two seasons, Shakir has been the team's WR1, averaging more than 4.5 receptions and about 50 yards per game. However, the Bills added former Panthers and Bears wideout D.J. Moore this […]

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens (hamstring) is not practicing on Saturday as he continues to recover from a hamstring injury. Giddens has not practiced since last Sunday and has reportedly struggled to stand out at training camp. In 2025, Giddens had just 26 carries for 96 yards in nine games and had no receptions. […]

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (undisclosed) headed to the locker room with a trainer on Saturday. Media members surrounding the Chiefs were unclear about when a possible injury occurred or whether it was routine maintenance. Rice walked off laughing with a trainer, so it doesn't appear to be a significant issue. The fourth-year […]

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs (groin) is not practicing on Saturday due to a groin injury sustained during training camp last week. The fourth-year receiver is eyeing a breakout season, with many vacated targets after veteran wideout Michael Pittman Jr. was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers in March. With Alec Pierce (ankle) still on […]

Last season, five receivers topped 160 targets, including Ja'Marr Chase (185), Amon-Ra St. Brown (172), Trey McBride (169), Puka Nacua (166), and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (163), forming one of the most exclusive clubs. Assuming Malik Nabers was healthy in his 2024 season, which featured 170 targets, it would've gained him access to this club. So, which […]

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (lower body) limped off the practice field on Saturday. Burden and cornerback Tyrique Stevenson were in a 1-on-1 drill when both players were injured. Burden, accompanied by a training staff member, limped to the locker room for further evaluation. The second-year receiver has been a terror at Bears' […]
