49ers | Jacob Cowing practicing Sat Aug 15, 03:16 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Jacob Cowing (hamstring) is participating in practice Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: Cowing has been making big plays this offseason. Reporters around the team have suggested that Cowing could carve out a role on offense while also contributing on special teams as a return man. |
49ers | Mike Evans on field Saturday Sat Aug 15, 03:03 PM
San Francisco 49ers WR Mike Evans (quadriceps) is participating in practice Saturday, Aug. 15.
| Footballguys view: The quad strain Evans has is considered 'very minor' from reporters around the team. Evans can still produce as a WR2 for Fantasy GMs if he's healthy. He has a current ADP of WR29 (6.08) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Steelers | DK Metcalf, Michael Pittman remain out Sat Aug 15, 02:24 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (undisclosed) and WR Michael Pittman Jr. (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Saturday, Aug. 15, and head coach Mike McCarthy indicated that neither receiver is likely to practice this week.
| Footballguys view: With no practice for either receiver this week, Metcalf and Pittman will miss the next preseason game against the Jets. In the third preseason game, they may not play either (many starters don't play in that contest). That means the next time we see both on the field at the same time is likely the start of the regular season. The injuries are undisclosed, but it's safe-ish to assume they'll be out there for Week 1. As always, stay tuned. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson's current injury unrelated to old issue Sat Aug 15, 02:24 PM
Updating a previous report, New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson's (hamstring) current hamstring injury is not related to hamstring issues that he experienced last year while playing for Arizona State, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: We have some clarity on this hamstring injury, which is good since Tyson missed the NFL Combine due to the college hamstring injury. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports that Tyson is seeking multiple opinions on his recent injury. We'll now see how much time it takes to recover from this latest hamstring problem - and if he can avoid further issues. Tyson has a current ADP of WR48 (8.01) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Link to story Saints | Jordyn Tyson hamstring issue could linger Fri Aug 14, 03:29 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) will miss time, and the injury could linger into the season, according to head coach Kellen Moore.
| Footballguys view: That Moore is allowing for the possibility of this injury keeping Tyson out four weeks - the amount of time until Week 1 - is discouraging. Hopefully the team is just being extra cautious with Tyson because of how long it took for to recover from his last right hamstring injury. Moore said this injury is not a recurrence of the previous injury, but that is small solace. Devaughn Vele and Juwan Johnson would pick up the slack in the passing game for any time that Tyson misses. |
Cardinals | Michael Wilson has two catches Fri Aug 14, 11:20 AM
Arizona Cardinals WR Michael Wilson caught both of his targets for 23 yards in the preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: The glass half empty take here is that Wilson gave way to Jalen Brooks for four snaps with the ones. The glass half full take is that Wilson still led the offense in catches and yards in that very small sample. With the Cardinals offense looking more game under Mike LaFleur, Wilson is becoming a more attractive pick around his 8th round ADP, especially in PPR leagues. |

Cardinals | Marvin Harrison Jr. snags TD Fri Aug 14, 11:20 AM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. caught a seven-yard touchdown against the Las Vegas Raiders during the preseason game Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: Harrison led the wide receiver group in snaps, but ran the same number of routes as Michael Wilson and Kendrick Bourne. He was able to separate on a crossing route in the red zone and Jacoby Brissett stood in to deliver a laser into a crowd for the score. That should build Harrison's confidence. It will be difficult for Harrison to have a true breakout season in this crowded offense, but as long as Brissett starts, it could be productive enough for Harrison to deliver his ADP value - which is in the sixth round of most drafts. |
Packers | One grab for Jayden Reed Fri Aug 14, 11:20 AM
Green Bay Packers WR Jayden Reed caught one of his two targets for 19 yards in the preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: Reed's role did not grow to include two wide receiver sets in the offense's first action since Romeo Doubs left to sign in New England. That was Matthew Golden's spot. But Reed still ran as many routes as Golden and Christian Watson and got the most targets and catches. |

Dolphins | Caleb Douglas listed as starter Thu Aug 13, 07:04 PM
Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas is listed as one of the starting wide receivers on the team's first unofficial depth chart because he has been consistent during training camp, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
| Footballguys view: Late in July, Cameron Wolfe from NFL Network suggested that Douglas might be a starter this year. It's a great sign that he's listed as one of the starters on the initial depth chart. We'll likely see the Dolphins go run-heavy on offense with Malik Willis at quarterback. However, if Douglas can be a favorite target - and maybe even a security blanket for Willis - there could be more fantasy value there than some think. |

Panthers | Jalen Coker standing out Thu Aug 13, 06:21 PM
Carolina Panthers WR Jalen Coker has been open regularly during training camp and has been catching passes consistently during practices, according to ESPN.com's Mike Kaye.
| Footballguys view: Fantasy GMs know that Coker can ball. His current ADP (WR55, 14.02) seems low for what his potential and upside could be in the Panthers offense. We love taking him late in drafts and stashing for at least some flex-worthy matchups. |
Raiders | Malik Benson may have offensive role Thu Aug 13, 05:56 PM
Las Vegas Raiders WR Malik Benson has been a standout performer during training camp and may be earning a meaningful role in the passing game, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Ryan McFadden.
| Footballguys view: Benson has been getting first-team reps in camp, and he's impressed. We'll see how things shake out on the Raiders' depth chart at the wide receiver position. At this time, Tre Tucker (WR58) and Jalen Nailor (WR59) are the highest-drafted Raiders receivers in recent mock drafts. A big preseason for Benson could change that. |

Rams | Puka Nacua expected back soon Thu Aug 13, 04:04 PM
Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (groin) will likely return to practice next week, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Good news for the Rams and Fantasy GMs here. Nacua will have plenty of time to ramp up before the start of the regular season (barring any setbacks). He's a top-5 pick for Fantasy GMs out there. |

Saints | Jordyn Tyson leaves practice Thu Aug 13, 01:27 PM
New Orleans Saints WR Jordyn Tyson left practice with an apparent leg injury and did not return on Thursday, Aug. 13.
| Footballguys view: Reports are indicating this is a hamstring injury, but it's said to be not serious. That sounds great, but we're also dealing with a rookie receiver that has been limited by a hamstring injury since the NFL Scouting Combine. Tyson has incredible upside in the pros, but his rookie season may not get off to a hot start if he can't shake this hamstring issue. |
Chiefs | Rashee Rice not expected to be suspended for violating probation Thu Aug 13, 10:39 AM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is not expected to be suspended for violating his probation, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network on Wednesday, Aug. 12.
| Footballguys view: This gives Chiefs fans and Fantasy GMs some clarity. Rice violated his probation and spent 30 days in jail because of it. He's not getting suspended, but he is coming back from offseason knee surgery. Camp reports about Rice have been "meh" (at best), and he's been somewhat limited on certain days. Rice has a current ADP of WR13 (3.05) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

New York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) could start participating in team drills as soon as next week, according to head coach John Harbaugh.
| Footballguys view: Nabers is making his way back from the knee injury that shortened his 2025 season after just four games. Barring any sort of setback, Nabers should be able to start against the Cowboys in Week 1 of the regular season. His injury status is baked into his ADP, and currently Nabers is going off the board at WR15 (3.10) in 12-team PPR leagues. |

Jets | Omar Cooper having some missteps Wed Aug 12, 03:25 PM
New York Jets WR Omar Cooper Jr. has shown some inconsistencies during training camp, but wide receivers coach Shawn Jefferson said that is normal for a rookie.
| Footballguys view: The team moved up in the 2026 NFL Draft to select Cooper at no.30 overall. He's an outside or slot target who can win with run-after-the-catch ability (think young Deebo Samuel here). The Indiana wideout should be the team's no.3 receiver behind Garrett Wilson and Adonai Mitchell. |
Jets | Isaiah Williams pushing for bigger role Wed Aug 12, 03:24 PM

Updating a previous report, Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Emeka Egbuka (toe) suffered a toe injury during practice Wednesday, Aug. 12, but the injury is not believed to be serious, according to source.
| Footballguys view: We're not going to be alarmists here, but toe injuries can be turf toe injuries...and those can linger. If sources say the injury is not considered serious, then all we can do is monitor Egbuka for the rest of training camp and the preseason. If healthy and ready for Week 1 (and this report makes it sound like he should be), Egbuka is a WR2/flex with upside for Fantasy GMs on a weekly basis. |
