Parker Washington Set to Play "Most Important Role" of His Career in Jaguars Offense
According to John Shipley of Sports Illustrated, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington has continued to impress during the team's OTAs and is set to play the "most important role" of his young career during the upcoming season. According to Shipley, Washington has made a strong case to be named the team's OTAs MVP as he continues to find success in this offense. Washington emerged as a legit league-winner in fantasy during the back half of the 2025 season when he became the top option for Trevor Lawrence. Over his last nine games, Washington caught 41 of his 61 targets for 640 yards and four touchdowns. He carried this momentum into the postseason when he brought in seven passes for 101 yards and a touchdown in their Wild Card loss. While he will share targets with Jakobi Meyers and Brian Thomas Jr., it appears the 24-year-old is set to play a lead role in this passing offense, which will put him in a prime position for a breakout campaign.

Corey Seager to Begin Rehab Assignment This Week
Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (back) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment this week, according to manager Skip Schumaker. Seager was able to do some on-field work ahead of Sunday's game versus the Kansas City Royals. Barring any setbacks, Seager should be ready to begin playing in rehab games in the next few days. Seager has been sidelined since May 18 due to a lingering back issue. He could require a handful of games to shake off the rust before returning to the Rangers lineup. If everything goes well, Seager could be back in the big leagues by the end of next week. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for more updates on his status.

Ty Madden to Pitch on Monday
Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Ty Madden (forearm) will come off the 15-day Injured List ahead of Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Madden is back in action after missing over two weeks due to a right forearm contusion. It's unclear if Madden is going to start on Monday or pitch as the bulk reliever behind an opener. The right-hander has posted a 2.38 ERA, 0.79 WHIP, with 12 strikeouts across three appearances with the Tigers this season. Madden could be an interesting deep league option after posting a few decent outings to begin the season.

JT Realmuto is Removed with Wrist Contusion
Philadelphia Phillies catcher JT Realmuto (wrist) was forced to make an early exit from Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Realmuto was hit on the left wrist by a pitch during the third inning. He was replaced by Rafael Marchan behind the plate in the fourth inning. The Phillies are calling it a left wrist contusion, but further testing should help determine the severity of the injury. Realmuto was plunked by a pitch in his lone plate appearance of the game. For now, fantasy managers should consider Realmuto as day-to-day. Marchan should see a majority of the starts behind the plate if Realmuto misses any time.

Elly De La Cruz Exits with Hamstring Tightness
Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz (hamstring) was forced to make an early exit from Sunday's game against the Atlanta Braves. De La Cruz was pulled from the game after suffering a hamstring injury while running the bases in the fifth inning. The team is calling it right hamstring tightness, so for now, De La Cruz should be considered day-to-day. Before leaving, De La Cruz went 2-for-2 with two singles, a stolen base, and a walk. Matt McLain took over at shortstop and would likely see increased time over there if De La Cruz hits the Injured List. The expectation is that De La Cruz will undergo further examination on Monday. Fantasy managers should get a better idea of how long he'll be out after that.

Tyler Reddick Is One of the Top Favorites to Win at Nashville
Tyler Reddick of 23XI Racing is starting outside of the front row in second for the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway after qualifying was canceled due to rain. In five previous starts at Nashville, Reddick has two top-10 finishes and an average finish of 15.6. With 13 races completed so far in the Cup Series this year, Reddick has five wins, 10 top-10 finishes, and a series-leading average finish of 5.4. In practice for this week's race, Reddick displayed top-5 speeds in all categories, including second in 15 and 20 consecutive lap averages. Based on equipment, practice speeds, and season-wide performance, Reddick is one of the top favorites to compete for the win this week.

Kyle Larson May Continue his Top-10 Consistency at Nashville this week
Kyle Larson of Hendrick Motorsports will start in fifth for the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway. Larson is starting in that position after qualifying for the race was rained out on Saturday, while starting positions were awarded based on the NASCAR rulebook's metric. In five Cup starts at Nashville, Larson has one win, a series-leading average finish of 5.2, and is the only driver in the field to finish in the top 10 in all five races at the site. After 13 races so far this season, Larson has seven top-10 finishes and an average finish of 16.3. In practice for this week's race, Larson displayed top-10 speeds in almost all categories, including sixth in 10 consecutive lap averages. Larson's consistency at Nashville, as well as his practice speeds and equipment, do make him a favorable DFS option, especially in tournaments as an alternative play to some of the other top drivers.

Christopher Bell of Joe Gibbs Racing will start in the fourth position for this week's NASCAR Cup Series race at Nashville Superspeedway, the Cracker Barrel 400. In five Cup starts at Nashville, Bell has four top-10 finishes. In the one start where he did not finish in the top 10, he did lead 131 laps and then failed to finish due to a late accident. Through 13 Cup races so far this season, Bell has five top-10 finishes with an average finish of 16.6. In practice for this week's race, Bell ranked fourth in 10 consecutive lap averages, third in 15 consecutive lap averages, and fifth in 20 consecutive lap averages. Considering his practice speeds, equipment, and overall track history, Bell is one of the top favorites to compete for the win this week.

Is William Byron A Playable DFS Option for Nashville Lineups?
William Byron of Hendrick Motorsports is starting in the eighth position for the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway. Byron was awarded the start position after qualifying was canceled on Saturday due to rain. In five previous races at Nashville, Byron has three top-10 finishes and an average finish of 13.6. Through 13 races this year, Byron has seven top-10 finishes with an average finish of 15.5. In practice, Byron ranked 13th in overall lap averages and 10th in 10 consecutive lap averages. Although Byron has some of the best equipment in the field by being aligned with Hendrick Motorsports, his starting position gives him little upside. Fantasy players looking to roster Byron should consider him for tournaments mainly as a contrarian option.

Wan'Dale Robinson's Dynasty Value May Have Peaked in 2025
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson put together the best season of his career in 2025, recording 92 catches for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns on 140 targets across 16 games as a member of the New York Giants. The Titans rewarded Robinson in free agency, handing him a four-year, $70 million contract. In Tennessee, Robinson will reunite with former Giants play-caller Brian Daboll and should play a prominent role in his team's passing game out of the slot. However, Robinson's place in the target pecking order in Tennessee was knocked down a peg after the Titans used the number four overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft on Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate. The overall offensive environment in Tennessee also remains questionable, as 2025 number one overall pick Cameron Ward flashed upside in his rookie season but largely struggled in his first year as the Titans quarterback. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling Robinson at a high point in his value, entering a season full of unknowns in Tennessee.

Carson Hocevar Is Likely to have Another Solid Result at Nashville
Spire Motorsports driver Carson Hocevar will be starting 17th in this week's race at Nashville Superspeedway, the Cracker Barrel 400, after qualifying was canceled due to weather on Saturday. In two prior Cup starts at Nashville, Hocevar has two finishes of 16th or better, including a runner-up finish in last year's race at the site. After 13 races so far this year, Hocevar has one win, five top-10 finishes, and an average finish of 15.2. In practice for this week's race, Hocevar ranked 10th in 15, 20, and 30 consecutive lap averages. With Nashville being a strong track historically for Hocevar and his practice speeds, he is worth consideration for all DFS formats as a driver who is likely to place in the top 10.

Should Dynasty Managers Consider Selling High on Tyler Shough?
A second-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough took over as his team's QB1 in Week 9 of his rookie season. After some early struggles, Shough finished strong and closed the year with 2,384 yards, 10 touchdowns, and six interceptions across 11 games (nine starts). He also surprised many with his contributions on the ground, rushing for 186 yards and three scores on 45 attempts. There's reason for optimism heading into Shough's second year, particularly after the Saints boosted his supporting cast over the offseason by drafting wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstrings) in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft and signing running back Travis Etienne Jr. in free agency. At the same time, Shough is already entering his age-27 season after spending seven years in college. While his rookie season warrants praise, it wasn't dominant enough for him to definitely remain the clear quarterback of the future in New Orleans if he experiences some early struggles in 2026. If dynasty managers can get a massive return for Shough, they may want to consider selling him at what could be the highest point in his value.

With 13 races completed so far this year, Wallace has six top-10 finishes with an average finish of 17.4. In practice for this week's race, Wallace ranked among the top 15 fastest in 10-30 consecutive lap averages. Considering his equipment and recent track history at Nashville, fantasy players can start Wallace as a top-10 option for DFS with confidence.

Garrett Wilson's Dynasty Upside Remains High Despite Questionable Offensive Environment in New York
After playing in 51 consecutive games to open his career, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) appeared in just seven games in 2025 due to a knee injury. As a result, the 25-year-old finished the year with 36 receptions for 359 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets. Wilson has been a highly productive player since entering the NFL in 2022, recording three straight seasons with at least 80 catches and 1,000 receiving yards before 2025. He's been consistently held back by questionable quarterback play in New York, which has limited his fantasy upside. While Wilson may face familiar problems in 2026, the presence of veteran quarterback Geno Smith in New York should at least bring some stability to a Jets passing game that was led by a combination of Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook last season. Wilson also remains the obvious number one target in New York even after the team used first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft on wideout Omar Cooper Jr. and tight end Kenyon Sadiq. In dynasty formats, Wilson's injury may have created a buy-low window for managers to capitalize on leading into 2026.

Chris Buescher Is A Decent All-Around DFS Option for Nashville Lineups
RFK Racing's Chris Buescher will start in the 22nd position for the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway. Buescher was given the starting position for the Tennessee track after qualifying was canceled due to weather on Saturday. In five Cup starts at Nashville, Buescher has two top-15 finishes with a best finish of fifth in 2024. In 13 races completed so far this year, Buescher has six top-10 finishes and an average finish of 12.8. During Saturday's practice, Buescher ranked 19th in 15 consecutive lap averages and 17th in both 20 and 25 consecutive lap averages. The No. 17 Ford driver makes for a decent DFS option for all formats with upside, as his equipment is capable enough to compete for a top-15 finish.

Daniel Suarez is Likely to Drop Positions during the Cracker Barrel 400
Last week's Coca-Cola 600 winner, Daniel Suarez, will start in the third position for the Cracker Barrel 400 at Nashville Superspeedway after qualifying was canceled due to rain. In five prior Cup starts at Nashville, Suarez has one top-10 finish and an average finish of 14.4. Through the first 13 races this season, Suarez has one win, four top-10 finishes, and an average finish of 13.9. In practice for this week's race, Suarez ranked 34th in overall lap averages and 35th in five consecutive lap averages. With Suarez's starting position being set so high at a track where he normally has not competed for the win, he is a huge risk to utilize in DFS. Even if he can be used as a tournament play, fantasy players should not feel encouraged to consider Suarez with some of the slowest speeds set in practice.

Kenneth Gainwell Carries Dynasty Sell-High Appeal After Breakout 2025 Campaign
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Kenneth Gainwell is coming off a breakout season in 2025, as he recorded 1,023 scrimmage yards and eight touchdowns on 187 touches across 17 games as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Tampa Bay rewarded Gainwell for his efforts, signing him to a two-year contract in free agency to form a backfield tandem with Bucky Irving (shoulder). Much of Gainwell's production in Pittsburgh came as a receiver out of the backfield, as he hauled in 73 receptions for 486 yards and three touchdowns on 85 targets. While Gainwell should still be involved in the passing game with the Buccaneers, he'll no longer have the benefit of playing with Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers targeted running backs at an extremely high rate in 2025, allowing Gainwell to rack up PPR fantasy points with consistency. Additionally, a bounce-back season from Irving could lead to a reduced role for Gainwell. Irving battled through injuries and inconsistency in 2025, but he flashed high-end upside as a rookie in 2024, averaging 5.4 yards per carry and collecting over 1,500 yards from scrimmage. In dynasty formats, managers may want to explore selling high on Gainwell after his career year.

Emeka Egbuka Undervalued in Dynasty Formats After Underwhelming Close to 2025?
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka burst onto the scene as a rookie in 2025, recording 63 receptions for 938 yards and six touchdowns on 127 targets across 17 games. The 23-year-old's production slowed down a bit in the second half of the season, as he failed to record a touchdown reception after Week 9 and topped 60 receiving yards just once over his final eight games played. However, Egbuka profiles as the number one target in the Bucs' passing game entering 2026 following the offseason departure of star wideout Mike Evans in free agency. He will also get a chance to play more on the inside, which should allow him to improve on his subpar 49.6% catch rate. If Egbuka's slow finish to 2025 creates a dip in his value, dynasty managers should pounce on the opportunity to buy low on him heading into his second NFL season.

Griffin Jax Cleared to Make His Start on Monday
Tampa Bay Rays right-hander Griffin Jax (back) is in line to make his next scheduled start on Monday against the Detroit Tigers, per Evan Woodbery of MLive Media Group. Jax was forced to exit early from his start against the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday after being hit in the back with a 107.2 mph comebacker. In 17 appearances (six starts) for Tampa Bay so far in 2026, Jax is 1-3 with a 3.60 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, and 27 strikeouts across 30 innings. The 31-year-old was moved from the bullpen to the rotation in late April and has been effective since, allowing four earned runs over 21 innings. He had reached five innings pitched in each of his last two starts leading into Tuesday, and should be stretched out to close to a normal starter's workload going forward. In leagues where he's not already rostered, Jax could be worth a look on the waiver wire.

Samuel Basallo Returns to Orioles Lineup on Sunday
Baltimore Orioles catcher Samuel Basallo (pectoral) is back in his team's lineup against the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday after exiting early on Saturday. Basallo appeared to have tweaked his pectoral muscle during his final at-bat in the ninth inning, but he seems to have avoided a serious injury. Entering play on Sunday, the 21-year-old was hitting .276/.335/.506 with nine home runs, 24 RBI, and 22 runs scored across 173 plate appearances. The Orioles have been able to split catcher and designated hitter duties between Basallo and Adley Rutschman, which should help keep both players fresh and could keep Basallo in the lineup even if the pectoral issue lingers. Fantasy managers can breathe a collective sigh of relief now that Basallo has officially avoided a stint on the injured list.

Twins Promote Right-Handed Pitching Prospect Mike Paredes to the Big League
The Minnesota Twins have promoted right-handed pitching prospect Mike Paredes to the big leagues, per MLB.com's transactions log. Paredes will take the spot of starting pitcher Bailey Ober (elbow) on the active roster. Ober was placed on the 15-day injured list on Sunday due to right elbow inflammation. Paredes has made 13 appearances (10 starts) across Double-A Wichita and Triple-A St. Paul so far in 2026, recording a 3-2 record with a 4.44 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, and 54 strikeouts across 48 2/3 innings. It's not yet clear whether Paredes will be used in long relief or if he will take Ober's place in the Twins' starting rotation. Paredes owns a strong 22.5% K-BB rate in the minors this season, so he could be an intriguing deep-league waiver wire target if he gets a chance to start in the big leagues. Ober's next scheduled start was slated for Thursday in Minnesota against the Kansas City Royals.

Bailey Ober Placed on 15-Day Injured List Due to Elbow Inflammation
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober (elbow) has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation. It's a tough break for Ober, who gave up seven earned runs across 4 2/3 innings of work in his start on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Across 66 2/3 innings (12 starts) overall this season, Ober has recorded a 6-3 record with a 4.59 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 46 strikeouts. While the 30-year-old owns a strong 6.4% walk rate, his average fastball velocity is down to 89.3 miles per hour, and he's struck out just 16.4% of the batters he's faced in 2026. The long ball continues to be a major issue for Ober, as he owns a 1.62 HR/9 after allowing a 1.85 HR/9 in 2025. The Twins recalled right-handed pitching prospect Mike Paredes on Sunday to take Ober's place on the active roster and possibly, his place in the starting rotation.

Konnor Griffin Placed on 10-Day Injured List Due to Forearm Strain
Pittsburgh Pirates shortstop Konnor Griffin (forearm) has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a flexor strain in his right forearm, per Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Beazley reports that the Pirates expect Griffin's stint on the injured list to be a "short-term stay". The 20-year-old has gotten off to a solid start to his rookie season, hitting .270/.327/.402 with four home runs, 22 RBI, 30 runs scored, and 14 stolen bases. Griffin's 26.9% strikeout rate suggests that his batting average may come down a bit over the course of the season, but his elite speed should continue to help his batting average on balls in play. Pirates infielder Jared Triolo started at shortstop in Griffin's place on Sunday and will likely see the majority of playing time while Griffin is on the shelf. Fantasy managers should be stashing Griffin until his return.

Trey Benson a Dynasty Hold Despite Unfavorable Situation
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson remains largely unproven since the team spent a third-round pick on him in the 2024 NFL Draft, and with the investments made at the position in the 2026 offseason, that seems unlikely to change as he heads into his third professional season. The Cardinals spent $8 million in guaranteed money to land Tyler Allgeier in free agency before using the third overall pick on top prospect Jeremiyah Love. With James Conner also back in the fold after, like Benson, missing most of the 2025 season, Arizona features one of the most loaded running back rooms in the league. With the depth ahead of him muddying Benson's chances of even finding value as an insurance back, dynasty managers could be tempted to move on from the underperforming Day 2 pick, but at RotoBaller's dynasty RB59, he remains a hold as there's still a chance he could land in a more optimal situation if the Cardinals opt to move him or any of their other backs before the season starts.

Ryan O'Hearn Activated from Injured List on Sunday
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder/first baseman Ryan O'Hearn (quadriceps) has been activated off the 10-day injured list, per Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. O'Hearn will take the roster spot of Pirates shortstop Konnor Griffin (forearm), who is headed to the injured list with a flexor strain in his right forearm. O'Hearn has been on the injured list since May 17 due to a quad injury. The 32-year-old was off to a strong start to his first season in Pittsburgh before getting hurt, hitting .289/.368/.459 with seven home runs, 29 RBI, 27 runs scored, and one stolen base across 182 plate appearances. With his 44.9% hard-hit rate and 18.7% strikeout rate, O'Hearn profiles as a strong source of batting average who should continue to compile counting stats in an everyday role in the heart of the Pirates lineup.

Kerry Carpenter Returns to Tigers Lineup on Sunday
Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter (shoulder) will make his return to the big leagues for his team's Sunday matchup against the Chicago White Sox. Carpenter has been on the injured list since early May due to an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. Before the injury, the 28-year-old hit .216/.299/.451 with six home runs, 17 RBI, and 11 runs scored. While Carpenter's numbers were down from his strong 2025 stat line, his 10.9% barrel rate and 50% hard-hit rate still hint at significant power upside. Now that he's back in the lineup, Carpenter will likely slide into a big-side platoon role at designated hitter and in the corner outfield spots for Detroit. As long as he doesn't suffer any lingering effects from his shoulder injury, Carpenter could be a solid waiver wire target for fantasy managers.

Omar Cooper Jr. a Long-Term Investment in the First Round of Rookie Drafts
When the New York Jets traded back into the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft to select Indiana's Omar Cooper Jr. with the 30th overall pick, they landed a versatile wide receiver with some of the best tackle-breaking ability in the class. While Cooper no doubt has the talents to make an immediate impact on an NFL field, dynasty managers spending a later first-round rookie pick on him may need to exercise patience to see that impact consistently translate to fantasy success. While New York's offense is trending in the right direction, the operation will be run in 2026 by a soon-to-be-35-year-old Geno Smith, whose 34.1 QBR in 2025 ranked 31st out of all qualified starting quarterbacks. After missing 10 games with a knee sprain, Garrett Wilson and his career 9.1 targets per game are expected back and healthy, and with the Jets spending the 16th pick of the draft on tight end Kenyon Sadiq, Cooper faces direct competition for the short-area, middle-of-the-field looks that made him so valuable to Indiana's National Title-winning offense. Cooper has fantasy-friendly tools and could eventually be used as the Jets' version of a Deebo Samuel Sr. or Rashee Rice, but as RotoBaller's rookie WR5, he projects as more of a long-term investment than the players going ahead of him in rookie drafts.

Giants to Promote Outfield Prospect Jonah Cox to the Big Leagues, Worth a Pick Up in All Leagues?
The San Francisco Giants are promoting outfield prospect Jonah Cox to the big leagues, per Susan Slusser of The San Francisco Chronicle. Cox will take the roster spot of left-handed reliever Ryan Borucki, who has been designated for assignment. Cox is being promoted directly from Double-A Richmond, where he was off to a ridiculously hot start to 2026. Across 183 plate appearances, the 24-year-old hit .400/.453/.644 with six home runs, 35 RBI, 31 runs scored, and 27 stolen bases. With San Francisco, the righty-swinging Cox could be ticketed for a platoon role with Giants center fielder Drew Gilbert. While Cox may struggle with the transition from Double-A to MLB pitching, he's considered an elite base runner whose speed should play right away in the big leagues. For fantasy managers in need of stolen bases, Cox could be worth a look on the waiver wire.
