Willie Snead Signs Offer Sheet With Ravens
7 years agoNew Orleans Saints restricted free-agent wide receiver Willie Snead is signing a two-year offer sheet on Friday with the Baltimore Ravens that is worth up to $10.4 million, according to a source. The Saints now have five days to match it, but they are unlikely to do so after recently signing Cameron Meredith and re-signing Brandon Coleman. Snead opened up last year serving a suspension and never really become a part of the offense, catching just eight passes for 92 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games. Baltimore also added Michael Crabtree and John Brown in free agency this offseason, but Snead could have a role out of the slot. Still, Snead's fantasy ceiling will be low moving from a future Hall of Fame quarterback to Joe Flacco.

Willie Snead IV Elevated From Practice Squad
1 year agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Willie Snead IV has been elevated from the practice squad ahead of the Week 10 matchup versus the Jacksonville Jaguars. The veteran wideout has made two appearances for the 49ers this season. During that span, Snead has been held to one catch for nine yards in 2023. He is mainly being elevated as depth for the 49ers. It's unlikely that Snead sees heavy involvement in the offense. That being said, fantasy managers can avoid Snead ahead of this Week 10 matchup.

Willie Snead IV Promoted To Active Roster
1 year agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Willie Snead IV has been promoted to the active roster on Saturday. This news comes with wideouts Jauan Jennings (shin) and Deebo Samuel (knee, ribs) both uncertain to play. That being said, Snead could end up seeing some playing time if one of both of these receivers are sidelined. The 30-year-old was with the 49ers last season, so he is familiar with the system. Despite that, it's unlikely that Snead has much if any fantasy value for this Week 4 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

Willie Snead IV Elevated To Active Roster
2 years agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver Willie Snead IV has been elevated to the active roster ahead of the Week 8 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. This doesn't come as a surprise with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) out and Jauan Jennings (hamstring) listed as questionable for this contest. The 30-year-old has seen success in the past, but Snead hasn't caught a pass this season. That being said, he won't be a recommended fantasy option in any formats. The 49ers have other options on offense, so it's unlikely that Snead gets heavily involved.

49ers Promote Willie Snead IV, Tevin Coleman To Active Roster
2 years agoThe San Francisco 49ers promoted wide receivers Willie Snead IV and Malik Turner and running back Tevin Coleman from the practice squad to the active roster for Monday night's game against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. Snead and Turner will be battling for a depth role among the likes of Jauan Jennings and Ray-Ray McCloud behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk on Monday night. Meanwhile, Coleman will provide depth to a banged-up Niners backfield with Elijah Mitchell (knee) on Injured Reserve and rookie Tyrion Davis-Price (ankle) out for another week. Jeff Wilson Jr. will remain the team's primary back against the Rams, with rookie Jordan Mason and Marlon Mack behind him.
