Commanders | Bigger role for Chig Okonkwo? Sat Jun 13, 08:34 PM
Washington Commanders TE Chig Okonkwo will be an exciting part of the offense, according to QB Jayden Daniels. 'Now he gets to go out there and show his talents on a bigger stage and a bigger role in the offense,' Daniels said.
Link to story Commanders | Terry McLaurin excited for role Sat Jun 13, 08:22 PM
Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin said he will move around the formation more this season. 'I can go left, right, I can go vertical because I can still run by you,' McLaurin said. 'I can stop or I could go in. Just having those type of variations in your route tree is just an unbelievable weapon to have as a receiver.'

Steelers | Eli Heidenreich making impression on coach Sat Jun 13, 08:13 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Eli Heidenreich has impressed head coach Mike McCarthy. 'He's very instinctive, has an excellent skill set,' McCarthy said. 'He's picked up the offense. His position flexibility has been fun. He's had a tremendous start.'

Browns | Harold Fannin sits out offseason Sat Jun 13, 01:10 PM
Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. (undisclosed) did not participate in any of the workouts or practices this offseason because of an undisclosed reason, according to The Athletic's Zac Jackson.
| Footballguys view: We love what Fannin did as a rookie in 2025, but a groin injury late in the season limited him over the final couple of contests. This is an undisclosed injury, so who knows if his lack of participation is related to that or a new injury. So long as he's healthy for training camp and the preseason, we're not too concerned. With David Njoku (Chargers) gone, Fannin could be a top-10 fantasy tight end in 2026. |
Texans | Jaylin Noel pushing for more Sat Jun 13, 01:10 PM
Houston Texans WR Jaylin Noel has been 'making waves' during OTAs and minicamp, according to Jared Koch of SI.com, and Noel said he is ready to take on a bigger role. 'Being able to be a gamechanger, being able to make big plays, I think that's what I bring to the Texans,' Noel said.
| Footballguys view: Watch out for a second-year breakout here. He's been working this offseason as the first-team's slot receiver, and that fits perfectly with Noel's skill set. He's a WR4/5 for Fantasy GMs, but the upside is there for him to move into weekly flex consideration. |
Packers | Matthew Golden operates as No. 2 receiver Sat Jun 13, 01:10 PM
Green Bay Packers WR Matthew Golden worked with WR Christian Watson in two-receiver sets during minicamp.
| Footballguys view: A first-round pick in 2025, Golden had a disappointing rookie season. This offseason, he's been the no.2 receiver splitting time with Jayden Reed. Dontayvion Wicks and Romeo Doubs are no longer on the roster, so there's a real opportunity for a speedy receiver like Golden. Consider him a WR5 with upside. |
Bills | Desmond Reid moved to IR Fri Jun 12, 06:06 PM
Buffalo Bills RB Desmond Reid (undisclosed) was moved to the Reserve/Injured list Friday, June 12, after clearing waivers.

Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud has a better grasp of offensive coordinator Nick Caley's system, especially when it comes to pre-snap operation, according to quarterbacks coach Jerry Schuplinski.
| Footballguys view: Stroud also could get Tank Dell back, and 2025 second day draft picks Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel both look ready to do more in their second seasons. Stroud is an afterthought in 1QB leagues and a bargain in superflex leagues right now. |

Bears | Caleb Williams locked in Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Chicago Bears QB Caleb Williams has shown a comfort level in the offense during OTAs and minicamp, according to Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: It will disappointing if Williams doesn't look more comfortable and perform better in year two piloting Ben Johnson's offense. He is priced around QB6-7, but not much cheaper than QB3-5, so the fantasy football community expects him to improve. At least one of Colston Loveland, Luther Burden III, and Rome Odunze will be a big hit if Williams takes the expected step forward. |
Patriots | Fast start for A.J. Brown Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
New England Patriots WR A.J. Brown has shown an 'immediate' connection with QB Drake Maye, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Maye has immediately been throwing into small windows when targeting Brown, and the new acquisition is only encouraging his quarterback to trust him. Brown has a higher ceiling as a Patriot than he did as an Eagle, and he could help Drake Maye establish himself as the clear QB2 in fantasy football behind Josh Allen if Lamar Jackson has another injury-riddled season. |

Chiefs | Week 1 possible for Patrick Mahomes? Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) and the team are 'both leaning into this Week 1 possibility' for Mahomes' return, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: The league putting the Chiefs at home on Monday night against the Broncos to open the season might have been a coincidence, but with every passing day it appears that it will create maximum drama for Mahomes return to the field. He had returned to the fantasy elite thanks to his running ability and extended plays, but the Chiefs might limit that element of his game early in his return from knee surgery. Mahomes is priced correctly around QB10, but could get off to a slow start as he rounds into form. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker agrees to extension Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Jalen Coker agreed to terms on a three-year, $35 million extension with incentives worth up to $41 million, according to his agent.
| Footballguys view: Coker gave up two years of control in exchange for getting paid two years ahead of when he would enter unrestricted free agency. He is getting more guaranteed money than fellow 2024 draft class wide receivers and first round picks Brian Thomas Jr. and Xavier Worthy got on their initial contracts. Coker is the clear WR2 and one of the most underrated wide receivers in fantasy drafts right now. |
Panthers | Tetairoa McMillan dealing with injury Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Tetairoa McMillan (foot) missed some time during the mandatory minicamp because of a foot injury but hopes to be ready for the start of training camp.
| Footballguys view: McMillan said his foot is a "little sore" and he has "no concern at all". As long as he is full go for camp next month, we agree. McMillan did injure his left foot and have a procedure on it in college, but it's not clear which foot McMillan was talking about. There's no need to move McMillan down in your rankings unless he isn't participating when camp opens. |
Vikings | Justin Jefferson to work with both QBs Fri Jun 12, 05:43 PM
Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson said he plans to work out with both QB Kyler Murray and QB J.J. McCarthy leading up to training camp.
| Footballguys view: We have a legitimate quarterback competition in Minnesota, which could be good or bad for Jefferson. If it spurs one of Murray or McCarthy to up their game and play at a high enough level to help Jefferson pay off at a still high ADP, then it is good. But if the split in first team snaps makes neither quarterback adequately prepared and the competition doesn't have a true winner - only a quarterback who wasn't as bad as his competitor - then Jefferson could be very disappointing once again this year. |

NFL | Stefon Diggs not facing personal conduct policy violation Fri Jun 12, 01:38 PM
Free agent WR Stefon Diggs (Patriots) was cleared of any personal conduct policy violation by the league on Friday, June 12, and has closed their investigation into a matter between him and his former chef.
| Footballguys view: This was the expected outcome, but teams were likely waiting to sign Diggs until after this statement was released by the league before signing him. Washington and Baltimore have been mentioned as possible destinations. |

Link to story Chiefs | Rashee Rice should be ready for camp Thu Jun 11, 04:44 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs want Rice to be healthy and at his best when the start of the regular season gets here. He could be ready for the start of camp, but we expect the Chiefs to ease Rice into action over the summer. Entering the final year of his rookie contract, Rice needs to get healthy, stay healthy, and stay out of trouble with the law if he wants to get a new deal from Kansas City. |

Bills | Buffalo adds two receivers Thu Jun 11, 04:13 PM
Free-agent WR Deven Thompkins (Falcons) and WR Max Tomczak (Bills) signed with the Buffalo Bills Thursday, June 11. Terms of the contracts were not disclosed. The team also waived WR Gabriel Benyard and waived/injured RB Desmond Reid (undisclosed).
Link to story Browns | Jerry Jeudy sits out Thursday Thu Jun 11, 04:06 PM
Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) did not participate in practice Thursday, June 11, because of hamstring discomfort, according to head coach Todd Monken.
| Footballguys view: It's June, so no big deal here. Jeudy is a speed receiver who can work defenders because of his route-running ability. With two high-profile rookie receivers added (KC Concepcion, Denzel Boston), it dings the fantasy value for Jeudy. We like him as a WR5/deep flex play in 2026. |

Broncos | Bo Nix participates in walkthrough Thu Jun 11, 02:28 PM
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton told the media on Thursday, June 11, that QB Bo Nix did some walkthrough work and will be out there for some work next week for minicamp.
| Footballguys view: Nix is coming off an ankle injury in the Divisional Round against Buffalo that needed two surgeries to correct. He's not doing much this week, but the team plans for him to do a bit more at mandatory minicamp next week. We imagine Nix will be a full participant when training camp opens for the Broncos in late July. |
Texans | David Montgomery seen as a 'three-down back' Thu Jun 11, 02:05 PM
Houston Texans RB coach Danny Barrett described RB David Montgomery, saying, 'He's a three-down back. He can do it all.'
| Footballguys view: Montgomery can do it all. The veteran was traded for in early March, and he should be the lead back for the Texans this year. Woody Marks can provide some juice as a reserve runner and receiver out of the backfield. As a lead back for the Texans, we like Montgomery as an RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Buccaneers | Bucky Irving takes part in OTAs Thu Jun 11, 01:37 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (shoulder) took part in the team's OTA session on Thursday, June 11.
| Footballguys view: He's a player who is coming back from an injury, but Irving is expected to be near full strength for training camp. Irving is a playmaker, but the Buccaneers might use a bit more from Kenneth Gainwell or Sean Tucker in what could be more of an RBBC than Irving's Fantasy GMs want. We see Irving as a low-end RB2/flex option for Fantasy GMs in 2026. |
Seahawks | Week 1 possible for Zach Charbonnet? Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet (knee) could be ready by Week 1, according to head coach Mike Macdonald, who said 'everything is possible.' Macdonald acknowledged Charbonnet is ahead of schedule.
| Footballguys view: Anything is possible (thanks, Kevin Garnett), but what's likely here with Charbonnet? It's likely that he's going to need some time to get back to himself, even if the veteran back is ready for the start of the regular season. Rookie first-round pick Jadarian Price is impressing this offseason and could do most of the heavy lifting in the Seattle backfield - at least to begin the 2026 season. |

Packers | Jordan Love focused on footwork Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love said he spent the offseason working to improve his footwork in the pocket. 'My biggest thing that I've noticed since I got back is just my feet in the pocket, trying to be as smooth and consistent as possible,' Love said. 'When I go through my reads, get into my hitches and not getting antsy, not getting to that point where you're trying to move through the pocket too fast.'
| Footballguys view: That's a good place for Love to concentrate on improving his game. A passer's motion begins with proper footwork, so Love should be a better passer with better feet. Earlier this year, Packers HC Matt LaFleur said the team would "strip everything down" on offense in 2026. We like Love as a QB2 with upside in what could be a passing game that's more efficient this season. |
Jordan Love player page
Browns | Denzel Boston making noise Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Cleveland Browns WR Denzel Boston has been one of the 'standouts' during offseason activities, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: It's easy to see why when considering the physical talent that Boston brings to the field. He's a big-bodied target who can play 'above the rim.' Boston knows how to use his size and strength to box out smaller defenders. He's likely to be the team's no.3 receiver this year, but we love his upside in dynasty formats. With his size and ball skills, Boston produce as a red-zone threat. |
Saints | Hamstring injury for Oscar Delp Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
New Orleans Saints TE Oscar Delp (hamstring) has been dealing with a hamstring injury.
| Footballguys view: Delp must have injured his hamstring this offseason. With mandatory minicamp next week, we'll see how much work the Saints give him. Delp is a high-ceiling player who could outproduce what he did in college during his pro career. This year, Delp should serve as a reserve behind TE Juwan Johnson. |
Seahawks | High expectations for Rashid Shaheed Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Seattle Seahawks WR Rashid Shaheed is expected to have bigger role in the offense, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. 'The timing of our plays looks like it should, given the amount of reps that are invested into it,' Macdonald said. 'I'm excited as heck to see where it goes.'
| Footballguys view: Shaheed is a weapon on special teams, and he brings that same danger to the offensive side of the ball. We could see him push Cooper Kupp down the depth chart, and Shaheed could easily be the team's no.2 receiver. From a fantasy perspective, Shaheed is a WR5/deep flex in standard-scoring leagues. However, the upside to move into weekly flex territory is there. |
Seahawks | Two tight ends nursing injuries Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Seattle Seahawks TE Elijah Arroyo (undisclosed) and TE Eric Saubert (undisclosed) have not been practicing during minicamp but are expected to be ready for training camp, according to head coach Mike Macdonald. 'They're just working through some stuff, but it's positive for training camp,' Macdonald said. 'We're just taking care of them right now.'
| Footballguys view: Arroyo is the player to watch here. The second-year tight end has the speed to be a weapon in the middle of the field. He's a reserve behind AJ Barner at this time, but we love Arroyo's upside in dynasty formats. |
Eric Saubert player page
Seahawks | Jadarian Price's role growing? Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Seattle Seahawks RB Jadarian Price has played entire drives with the first-team offense during mandatory minicamp.
| Footballguys view: Price, a 2026 first-round pick, has reportedly been impressing this offseason. He should be considered the leader in the backfield, although we could see George Holani split time with the rookie early in the season. Zach Charbonnet could be ready sooner than possible, but he's coming back from a knee injury suffered in the playoffs. Let's see if Price can continue to separate himself from Holani in minicamp and training camp. |
Saints | Chris Olave taking it easy Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
New Orleans Saints WR Chris Olave (illness) has been held out of team drills while he continues to recover from the blood clot that sidelined him at the end of last season, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: Olave's agent should be working on a new long-term deal with the Saints this offseason. Just over a week ago, Olave told reporters that he feels a contract extension is "going to get done soon." We'll see if something can get done before training camp. |
Seahawks | Tory Horton not on field this week Thu Jun 11, 11:19 AM
Seattle Seahawks WR Tory Horton (shin) was on the field during the mandatory minicamp this week but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp or the early stages of camp.
| Footballguys view: A fifth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Horton has flashed briefly in the pros. Last year as a rookie, Horton played in eight games and started three games, finishing with 13 catches for 161 yards and five touchdowns. A shin injury cut his season short, and now he's working his way back this offseason. When healthy, Horton can operate as a special teams return man and no.3/no.4 receiver who can thrive near pay dirt. |
49ers | Sincere McCormick back with SF Wed Jun 10, 05:28 PM
Free-agent RB Sincere McCormick (49ers) signed a one-year contract with the San Francisco 49ers Wednesday, June 10. Financial terms were not disclosed. The team also waived RB Jordan Mims.
| Footballguys view: The 49ers spent a third-round pick on Kaelon Black this year. They still have Jordan James as well, last year's fifth-rounder. Two years ago, they spent a fourth-round pick on Isaac Guerendo. Still, they are looking for extra depth. McCormick could end up being nothing but a camp body, but his addition could also signal a potential roster cut for one of the young guys, likely Gurendo, who has done little aside from special teams. |
Jordan Mims player page
Bills | Skyler Bell sits out Wednesday Wed Jun 10, 05:06 PM
Buffalo Bills WR Skyler Bell (leg) did not participate in practice Wednesday, June 10, and had his left leg wrapped.
| Footballguys view: Bell was getting some buzz a few days ago, but we'll keep an eye on this leg injury. DJ Moore is the clear top option here. Khalil Shakir will remain heavily involved. But a disappointing start from Keon Coleman could allow for Bell to see the field on three-receiver sets. He's a polished receiver who can be a fun weapon for Josh Allen. He's a name to know as training camp approaches. |
Raiders | Brandon Johnson officially signed Wed Jun 10, 04:48 PM
Free-agent WR Brandon E. Johnson (Steelers) signed with the Las Vegas Raiders Wednesday, June 10. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. The team also placed WR Corey Rucker (undisclosed) on the Reserve/Injured list.
Link to story Chiefs | Two years added to Patrick Mahomes' deal Wed Jun 10, 04:33 PM
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes has agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Chiefs Wednesday, June 10, and is now scheduled to be under contract until the 2033 season and is set to make $504.75 million during that span, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: The Chiefs will do whatever they can to retain Mahomes for as long as they can. He gets a restructured deal seemingly every offseason, as both parties appear aligned on a long-term vision. |

Browns | Deshaun Watson fully healthy Wed Jun 10, 04:09 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Deshaun Watson said he is fully healthy and has not felt this good since 2023.
| Footballguys view: We'd feel a lot better if Watson said he felt like his 2020 self, as that's the last time he's played anything better than awful. Although Todd Monken won't declare a QB1, a lot of beat reporters are speculating that Watson has the inside track. In the final year of his deal, he hopes to earn another this year. With a new head coach and a handful of fun, young weapons around him, Watson is worth a cheap flyer in dynasty trades and late-round best ball picks. |
