A.J. Brown News
Monday, March 16, 4:36 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles will revisit trade scenarios involving wide receiver A.J. Brown in June, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. Brown remains an Eagle at this point, but Rapoport explains that "there has been momentum at various times" in trade talks. Rapoport's reporting provided some new insight into an ongoing saga that seemingly has no end in sight. Specifically, he reported that there were originally believed to be four serious landing spots for Brown, with the Rams and Patriots leading the pack. The Rams have lost interest, but the Patriots reportedly continue to check in and remain intrigued by the possibility of acquiring the superstar receiver. As has already been reported, Rapoport also explained that the Eagles would prefer to wait until June 1 to trade Brown. If they were to trade him now, an amount of $40 million would be accelerated to count against the cap. If they wait until June 1, that number halves to $20 million. As a result, fantasy managers will have to be patient because these trade rumors will continue to swirl for another two-plus months.

Ricky Pearsall News
Thursday, March 12, 7:01 AM
A first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall has missed 14 games due to injury over the first two years of his NFL career. When healthy, Pearsall's production has been more solid than spectacular. Across nine games played in 2025, the 25-year-old hauled in 36 receptions for 528 yards and zero touchdowns on 53 targets. The 49ers made one of the biggest splashes of the early portion of free agency by signing veteran wide receiver Mike Evans to a three-year deal. While the 32-year-old Evans may no longer be the player he once was at his peak, he still projects as San Francisco's top outside wideout and could push Pearsall to the WR2 role. On the bright side for Pearsall's production outlook, the 49ers could be losing wide receiver Jauan Jennings to free agency and will likely be without star tight end George Kittle (Achilles) for a chunk of 2026 as Kittle recovers from a torn Achilles tendon. Still, the signing of Evans could signal that San Francisco does not view Pearsall as a number-one wide receiver option going forward and may be bad news for his long-term dynasty outlook.
