Karel Vejmelka Makes Playoff Debut Sunday
Utah Mammoth goaltender Karel Vejmelka will start on Sunday in Game 1 against the Vegas Golden Knights, Brogan Houston of the Deseret News reports. This will be Vejmelka's first career game in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. He enters the postseason after a good regular-season campaign. Vejmelka had the second-most wins among all goalies, finishing with a 38-20-3 record. In addition, he registered a 2.75 goals-against average, a .897 save percentage, and two shutouts. Vejmelka's last shutout came against the Golden Knights on March 19 in a 4-0 win. He went 2-1-0 in this matchup during the regular season, allowing only five goals on 95 SOG.

Carter Hart in Vegas Crease for Playoff Opener
Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Carter Hart will be between the pipes in Sunday's Game 1 against the Utah Mammoth, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports. Hart had a very strong finish to the regular season and is also getting the trust for the playoff opener. In April, Hart has won all six starts, registering a 1.66 goals-against average and a .930 save percentage. Overall, the 27-year-old finished with an 11-3-3 regular-season record. He didn't pick up any shutouts but produced a solid 2.71 goals-against average with a .891 save percentage. Hart and the Golden Knights are heavy favorites in the opening round, but there may be some hiccups against a Utah team that is tied for the third-best offensive record this month, averaging 4.13 goals per game.

Jeremy Swayman Begins Fifth Postseason Campaign
Boston Bruins goaltender Jeremy Swayman will start Sunday's Game 1 against the Buffalo Sabres, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports. The 2026 Olympic champion will begin his fifth postseason campaign in the NHL. Swayman has a 9-10 record in the playoffs with the Bruins, allowing 2.38 goals with a .922 save percentage. He was also very reliable for the team during the regular season, reaching the 30-win plateau for the first time in his career. Swayman finished with a 31-18-4 record and had a 2.71 goals-against average, a .908 save percentage, and two shutouts. When he's on his game, it's very difficult to get pucks past Swayman, and Buffalo knows it all too well. Swayman made 21 saves in his lone regular-season appearance against the Sabres in a 3-1 win on Oct. 11.

Alex Lyon Available for Game 1
Buffalo Sabres goaltender Alex Lyon (lower body) will dress for Sunday's Game 1 against the Boston Bruins, Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports. It was initially believed that Lyon might not be available at the start of the postseason due to a lower-body injury. However, the 33-year-old will be ready to jump into action if needed. The Sabres are expected to start with Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen on Sunday night. Lyon recorded just two fewer wins than Luukkonen during the regular season, and the Finnish netminder must be sharp to avoid losing his No. 1 status in the playoffs.

Dominic James Activated From Injured Reserve
Tampa Bay Lightning center Dominic James (lower body) has been activated from Injured Reserve, Diandra Loux of The Hockey News reports. The 23-year-old is set to return to action in Sunday's Game 1 against the Montreal Canadiens. James last played on Feb. 28, when he suffered a lower-body injury in a loss to Buffalo. He was expected to miss at least eight weeks after surgery, but the speedy forward is ready to return sooner. James finished his rookie campaign with 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) in 43 games. On Saturday, James practiced on the fourth line and also worked with the second power-play unit.

Zachariah Branch Arrested for Misdemeanor Obstruction
Georgia wide receiver Zachariah Branch was arrested on Sunday on two misdemeanor obstruction charges, according to Marc Weiszer of the Athens Banner-Herald. Branch was charged with obstructing public sidewalks/streets-prowling and obstruction of a law enforcement officer. It's unclear if it will affect his stock as a potential Day 2 draft pick in this year's 2026 NFL draft, which kicks off on Thursday night. Branch began his collegiate career with two seasons at USC before playing with the Bulldogs in his final collegiate season in 2025. He had his best season last year, catching an SEC-high 81 passes for 811 yards and six touchdowns in 14 games played at Georgia. Branch ran an impressive 4.35-second 40-yard dash at the NFL scouting combine in February, but his recent off-the-field issue could cause NFL teams to sour on him ahead of next week's draft.

Sonny Styles One of the Top Targets for Giants at No. 5 in NFL Draft
ESPN's Jordan Raanan writes that Ohio State middle linebacker Sonny Styles is "believed to be one of the top targets" for the New York Giants in next week's NFL draft if they stay at No. 5 overall. Styles is considered one of the safest and cleanest prospects in the 2026 class, given his combination of production in college and athletic skills. The Giants didn't have a pre-draft visit with Styles, but they showed significant interest in him throughout the pre-draft process, including meeting him before and after his pro day. Styles is such a coveted early-round prospect in this year's draft that he might not even be available before the G-Men pick at fifth overall. There has been significant buzz about the Tennessee Titans potentially taking him at No. 4 overall, with some sources thinking Styles is a more likely option for the Titans at that spot than Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love. The Giants are also enamored with Love if he's available to No. 5 overall next Thursday night.

49ers Looking to Trade Renardo Green?
San Francisco 49ers cornerback Renardo Green could be on the trade block this offseason, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN. General manager John Lynch has said that the organization isn't actively looking to trade Green, but if the right offer comes along, it wouldn't be a surprise if he's dealt after being seen arguing with head coach Kyle Shanahan multiple times on the sideline in 2025. Interested NFL teams could be looking to buy low on the 25-year-old defensive back, who was taken in the second round (64th overall) by the Niners in 2024 out of Florida State. Green had 61 tackles (41 solo), an interception, 13 pass breakups, and one forced fumble in 17 games (seven starts) in his rookie season before compiling 60 tackles (36 solo) and 10 pass breakups in 14 regular-season starts last year in a disappointing second season in the league. He missed the last couple of games in the regular season in 2025 due to an ankle injury, but he's on track to be ready for the start of the 2026 campaign this fall.

Chargers Not Closing the Door on a Reunion With Keenan Allen
Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz isn't ruling out a reunion with free-agent veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. "I wouldn't say the room is complete," Hortiz said. The most interesting available receiver in free agency that the Chargers could consider is Tyreek Hill (knee), who has previous experience in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme. In addition to Allen and Hill, Jauan Jennings and Deebo Samuel Sr. are available and could be added to a WR room in L.A. that includes Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Tre' Harris. McConkey saw his fantasy stock fall considerably in 2025 in his sophomore season with the return of Allen, who finished with 81 receptions for 777 yards and four touchdowns in 17 regular-season games in his 13th year in the league after a one-year stay with the Chicago Bears in 2024. Re-signing with the Bolts would probably be the best-case scenario for Allen's 2026 fantasy value as he nears the end of his illustrious career.

Grayson Allen is Available for Game 1 on Sunday
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) is available to play ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Allen is back in the mix following a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury. It's unclear if Allen will have his minutes monitored or if he'll be a full-go for this one. Regardless, his presence on the court should mean reduced roles for Jordan Goodwin, Collin Gillespie, and Haywood Highsmith. Allen is a hit-and-miss fantasy option, so he won't be the most trustworthy DFS option for Sunday's slate. His return to the court will make Goodwin a less attractive option as well.

Eagles Preparing for A.J. Brown's Departure?
ESPN's Jeff Darlington said he thinks the Philadelphia Eagles will be "operating from a place" that wide receiver A.J. Brown will not be on their roster for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season this fall. General manager Howie Roseman has refused to give many details this offseason when asked about Brown's status. Additionally, the team acquired wideout Dontayvion Wicks from the Green Bay Packers. Rumors have swirled about the New England Patriots' and Tennessee Titans' interest in trading for Brown, although nothing has come to fruition yet. All signs are pointing to the Eagles getting much more serious about trading the three-time Pro Bowler after June 1, when it becomes much more financially palatable for them to trade the 28-year-old pass-catcher. Although Brown reached the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth straight season (and in six of his seven NFL seasons), he was unhappy with his offensive role in Philly and had a career-low 12.9 yards per catch in 15 regular-season games. A move to New England would be attractive from a fantasy perspective, but Brown might still be a volatile low-end WR1/high-end WR2 target in fantasy football.

Titans to Pick Up Peter Skoronski's Fifth-Year Option
The Tennessee Titans plan to pick up offensive guard Peter Skoronski's fifth-year option for the 2027 season, a source told Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. It will set Skoronski up to make $19.07 million in 2027. The 24-year-old was the 11th overall pick in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft out of Northwestern. In his first three years in the NFL, Skoronski has started all 48 of the games that he's appeared in for Tennessee. It remains to be seen if the Titans will look to get a long-term extension worked out with Skoronski before he enters the fifth and final year of his deal. Since the start of the 2024 regular season, Skoronski has been a staple for Tennessee's offensive line, not missing a single game. Having Skoronski around is a plus for young quarterback Cameron Ward and a Titans offense that is looking to take a step forward under new coordinator Brian Daboll in 2026.

Breece Hall's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Offensive Environment in New York
Despite having an atrocious supporting cast around him for most of the 2025 season, New York Jets running back Breece Hall still managed to record 1,415 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 279 touches across 16 games. The Jets signed Hall to the franchise tag earlier this offseason, and the two sides have yet to work out a long-term extension. While New York could easily still extend Hall at some point before the start of 2026, the 24-year-old's dynasty value would almost certainly benefit from a change of scenery. Hall has proven he can be productive regardless of the situation around him, but his upside is unquestionably limited with the Jets. New York's offense should be more stable with veteran quarterback Geno Smith under center in 2026. Still, the Jets likely remain at least a year or two away from fielding a high-level unit. Hall may struggle to reach his full dynasty potential without a chance to hit the open market.

Dexter Lawrence Signing One-Year Extension With Bengals
Now that the Cincinnati Bengals' acquisition of defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants is official and he has passed a physical, the Bengals signed him to a one-year, $28 million contract extension on Sunday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Lawrence is now contractually tied to Cincinnati for the next three seasons after getting his wish and moving out of New York. The Bengals sent the 10th overall pick in this year's NFL draft to the G-Men, who now hold two picks in the first 15 picks next week. The 28-year-old former first-rounder out of Clemson in 2019 was a Pro Bowler from 2022 to 2024, but he had a very disappointing season in his final year with the Giants in 2025, recording just half of a sack with 31 tackles (14 solo) and eight QB hits in 17 starts in his seventh year in the NFL. The Bengals will be hoping that Lawrence, who has 30.5 career sacks, can bounce back in 2026 and help give the team's pass rush a boost now that Trey Hendrickson is no longer in town.

Kristaps Porzingis Unsure About Returning to Golden State
Golden State Warriors center Kristaps Porzingis is unsure about his future with the organization. Porzingis is an unrestricted free agent, which allows him to sign with any organization. The 30-year-old admitted to enjoying his time with the Warriors, but he wants to take time to look at the whole picture. He wants to prioritize his health, which has been a problem for Porzingis throughout his career. In 15 games with the Warriors, Porzingis averaged 16.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.3 assists across 23.7 minutes per game. Given his injury history, it's going to be tough for any organization to give him a long-term deal. A return to Golden State makes sense, but the oft-injured center will likely take his time deciding on his future plans.

Willi Castro Returns on Sunday to Play Shortstop
Colorado Rockies infielder Willi Castro (hand) is back in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and right-hander Roki Sasaki at Coors Field, according to MLB.com. Castro is starting at shortstop and will hit seventh with regular shortstop Ezequiel Tovar getting the day off. Edouard Julien is at second base and is batting leadoff for Colorado. Castro is returning to the starting nine for the first time since suffering a right-hand contusion when he was hit by a pitch on Wednesday. The 28-year-old switch-hitting Puerto Rican outfielder had mostly been playing at second in his first year with the Rockies to begin the 2026 season, but he might be relegated to more of a bench role soon if he doesn't pick things up offensively. Going into Sunday's clash with L.A., Castro has gone just 12-for-56 (.214) with a homer, eight RBI, eight runs scored, and a stolen base. He has never faced Sasaki in his MLB career.

Drake London's Dynasty Upside Remains Limited by Quarterback Questions in Atlanta
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London ran into some injury issues with his knee that caused him to miss time down the stretch of the 2025 season. Still, the 24-year-old was highly productive across the 12 games he was active for, recording 68 receptions for 919 yards and seven touchdowns on a whopping 112 targets. London is averaging 9.3 targets per game over the past two seasons and profiles as the clear number one pass-catcher in Atlanta once again in 2026. However, the Falcons' ongoing issues at the quarterback position continue to limit London's upside. Atlanta QB Michael Penix Jr. (knee) is coming off a torn ACL and was largely ineffective when healthy in 2025, throwing for 1,982 yards and nine touchdowns across nine games. The Falcons signed veteran signal-caller Tua Tagovailoa in free agency, but the 28-year-old threw 15 interceptions and averaged under seven yards per pass attempt across 14 games with the Miami Dolphins in 2025. London remains a dynasty WR1, but he may struggle to realize his full potential until the Falcons solve the quarterback position.

Daulton Varsho Remains Out on Sunday
Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho (knee) remains out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale on the road against the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to MLB.com. Myles Straw will make the start in center field for Toronto and will bat eighth against D-backs right-hander Ryne Nelson. Varsho will miss a second straight game after being pulled from Friday's series opener early at Chase Field due to left-knee discomfort. He's considered day-to-day for now, but fantasy managers will want to check back on Monday for an update on his status before the team's series opener on Monday night in Anaheim against the Los Angeles Angels. Varsho played only 71 games in the 2025 regular season due to injuries. In 19 games so far in 2026, he has slashed .262/.333/.462 with three home runs, seven RBI, and eight runs scored. Straw, who is more of a defensive asset for the Jays than an offensive one, should see most of the playing time in center for however long Varsho is out.

Mark Williams is Ruled Out for Game 1 on Sunday
Phoenix Suns center Mark Williams (foot) has been downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Williams missed Friday's Play-In victory over the Golden State Warriors due to a lingering foot issue. Now, Williams is set to miss the beginning of this series. Oso Ighodaro figures to see an increased role in the rotation with Williams unable to go. He finished with 10 points and six rebounds across 26 minutes of action on Friday. He'll likely play a similar role on Sunday, which could make him an interesting low-cost DFS option. Khaman Maluach could see more minutes off the bench, but it won't be enough to warrant looking at him as a DFS option.

Chris Olave's Dynasty Value Rising After Resurgent 2025 Season
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave re-emerged as a high-value PPR wide receiver in 2025, recording 100 receptions for 1,163 yards and nine touchdowns on 156 targets across 16 games. After a lost season in which injuries forced him to miss nine games in 2024, Olave was able to re-establish himself as the clear number one target in New Orleans. He also got some much-needed help in the quarterback department in the second half of the year after Tyler Shough took over as the Saints' QB1. Olave's worrying track record of concussion issues remains a red flag for his long-term dynasty outlook. However, he's proven to be an effective high-volume target earner as long as he's on the field. Particularly with the improved offensive environment around him, Olave's value is trending up heading into 2026.

Hornets Want to Bring Back Coby White
Charlotte Hornets guard Coby White is set to test the open market this offseason. Although Charlotte will look into bringing back White on a long-term deal. After trading for White at the deadline, Charlotte inherited his Bird rights. That means Charlotte could technically exceed the salary cap to retain White. Given the Hornets' current financial situation, they shouldn't need to do that to re-sign White to a long-term deal. In 21 games with the Hornets, White averaged 15.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 3.0 assists with nearly a 40 percent shooting performance from deep. It's unclear what kind of role White would have on this team long-term, but his presence could certainly be an asset. White is from the North Carolina area and appears to have enjoyed his time with the organization. It sounds like a reunion could happen, but it depends on what kind of deal White is seeking in free agency.

Can Bucky Irving Bounce Back After Injury-Marred 2025?
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving was one of the breakout success stories of the 2024 season, recording over 1,500 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns as a rookie. However, foot and shoulder injuries caused him to miss seven games in 2025 and limited him to just 865 scrimmage yards and four touchdowns for the year. Irving's efficiency as a rusher also plummeted precipitously, as he averaged just 3.4 yards per carry after averaging 5.4 yards per carry in 2024. Irving could easily bounce back with better health in 2026. However, Irving's stature as an undersized back leads to questions about whether he can make it through a full NFL season healthy. Additionally, Tampa Bay signed veteran running back Kenneth Gainwell to a two-year contract in free agency. Gainwell topped 1,000 scrimmage yards as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025, and his presence caps Irving's workload upside. While Irving still carries plenty of fantasy upside, his dynasty value is more of an open question coming off a down season.

Kenneth Walker III a Major Dynasty Riser After Offseason Move to Kansas City
The Kansas City Chiefs made one of the biggest moves of the NFL offseason by signing running back Kenneth Walker III to a three-year, $43 million contract in free agency. Walker III recorded 1,309 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 252 touches across 17 games as a member of the Seattle Seahawks in 2025. The 25-year-old did so despite splitting touches with fellow Seahawks back Zach Charbonnet (knee) for the majority of the year. In Kansas City, Walker III profiles as the clear lead back and could easily top 300 touches for the first time in his career if he can stay healthy. The Chiefs' offense could have some struggles in the early going while star quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) makes his way back from knee surgery. Still, Kansas City should put Walker III in a position to rack up consistent fantasy production. In dynasty formats, Walker III profiles as a major riser following his offseason change of scenery.

Joey Loperfido Goes on Injured List With Quad Strain
The Houston Astros announced on Sunday that they placed outfielder Joey Loperfido (quadriceps) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to April 18) with a right-quad muscle strain. In a corresponding move, the Astros recalled right-hander Jayden Murray from Triple-A Sugar Land. Loperfido injured his quad during Friday's series opener against the St. Louis Cardinals and was held out of action on Saturday. It's unclear if the 26-year-old left-handed-hitting outfielder will be ready to come off the IL in late April when he's eligible to be activated. In the meantime, young outfielder Brice Matthews figures to see more playing time going forward in Houston's outfield. Lopefido, a former seventh-round selection out of Duke in 2021, is still searching for his first long ball of the 2026 season. Through his first 20 games played, he's gone 15-for-58 (.259) with five doubles, six RBI, seven runs scored, a stolen base, six walks, and 19 strikeouts for Houston.

Desmond Bane Considered Probable for Game 1
Orlando Magic guard Desmond Bane (illness) is listed as probable ahead of Sunday's Game 1 against the Detroit Pistons. Bane is a new addition to the injury report due to what is being considered a minor illness. Barring any setbacks, Bane should be good to go for Sunday's contest. If he's unable to play, Anthony Black would likely be asked to step up on Sunday. Black could be an interesting DFS option if he is given an expanded role. Bane finished with 13 points, seven rebounds, and three steals across 35 minutes of action during Friday's win over the Charlotte Hornets. He struggled from the floor, going 4-for-14, so he hopes for better results on Sunday.

Bo Nix's Dynasty Value in Question Coming Off Injury?
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix (ankle) had his 2025 season come to an unfortunate end when he suffered a fractured ankle during his team's AFC Divisional Round win over the Buffalo Bills. However, Nix is expected to be fully ready to go for the start of the 2026 season. Across 17 games in 2025, the 26-year-old completed 63.4% of his pass attempts for 3,931 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. Nix also rushed for 356 yards and five touchdowns on 83 attempts. While Nix hasn't been particularly efficient (6.5 yards per pass attempt) through the first two years of his NFL career, the Broncos high-volume pass game and Nix's ability to impact the game with his legs allow him to maintain fantasy upside. If the return from ankle injury prevents Nix from being effective as a scrambler, his fantasy production could suffer. Nix's dynasty value is trending slightly downward as he enters his third season in the NFL.

Casey Schmitt Establishing a New Level of Production with Strong Start to 2026
San Francisco Giants infielder Casey Schmitt has been one of the surprise success stories of the early portion of the 2026 season. Entering play on Sunday, Schmitt was hitting .317/.369/.517 with two home runs, seven RBI, seven runs scored, and one stolen base. The 27-year-old's strong production is supported by his underlying metrics, as he's posted above-average barrel (11.4%) and hard-hit (52.3%) rates. Schmitt has also moved into the heart of the Giants' lineup, which should allow him to rack up counting stats more consistently. While Schmitt has played exclusively at first base and designated hitter in 2026, he's capable of playing every infield spot and still offers fantasy managers multi-positional eligibility. As a cheap depth piece with some upside, Schmitt could be worth targeting on the waiver wire.

Colt Keith Looks Like a Steady Source of Batting Average Early in 2026
Detroit Tigers infielder Colt Keith has established himself as a key piece of his team's lineup early in 2026, hitting .317/.348/.429 with zero home runs, five RBI, and 10 runs scored across his first 66 plate appearances. Keith hasn't hit for much power in the early going, but his excellent 58.3% hard-hit rate supports his strong batting average. While Keith is looking like a potential breakout candidate early on this season, it's worth noting that he's logged just two plate appearances against left-handed pitching so far this year. Still, even in a platoon role, Keith profiles as a potentially valuable source of batting average for fantasy managers. In leagues where he's not already rostered, Keith could be worth targeting on the waiver wire.

Landen Roupp Emerging as a Breakout Starting Pitcher
San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Landen Roupp is off to an excellent start to the 2026 season, as he's posted a 3-1 record with a 2.38 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and 24 strikeouts across 22 2/3 innings (four starts). The 27-year-old has boosted his strikeout rate from 21.4% in 2025 to 26.7%, and he's also lowered his walk rate to a career-best 7.8%. Roupp has also yet to allow a home run this season, and owns a 50.9% ground ball rate. While Roupp established himself as a solid streaming option for fantasy managers in 2025, he appears to have taken his game to a new level in 2026. Combined with his pitcher-friendly home park in San Francisco, Roupp offers real upside as a waiver-wire target in any league where he's not already rostered.

Tarik Skubal Fans 10 in Win Over Red Sox on Saturday
Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal looked to be in Cy Young form on Saturday night in the team's 4-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. Skubal allowed only one earned run on four hits while walking two and striking out 10 batters in six innings to pick up his third win of the 2026 season. The talented left-hander was in top form in Beantown, retiring 12 of the first 13 batters he faced in the game, including striking out the side in two of his first four innings. The 29-year-old former ninth-rounder in 2018 out of Seattle University is showing why he's won back-to-back American League Cy Young awards. Through his first five starts in 2026, Skubal is 3-2 with a 2.08 ERA (2.07 FIP), 0.96 WHIP, and 33:6 K:BB in 30 1/3 innings pitched. He's currently tied for the fourth-most strikeouts in the AL. Skubal was the first pitcher off the board in fantasy drafts, and he'll be a must-start again in his next scheduled outing at home in Detroit against the Milwaukee Brewers.
