Carolina Panthers veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen said that he talked with his family, and they wanted him to play in 2025. He plans to go through a similar process after this season, which is the final year of his contract. Depending on how the 34-year-old feels and what his family thinks after the 2025 campaign, Thielen could hang up his cleats and retire. He's returning for a third season in Carolina after playing in a career-low 10 games in 2024 due to a hamstring injury. In those 10 games, he caught 48 of his 62 targets for 615 yards and five touchdowns. He should continue to be a trusted weapon for young quarterback Bryce Young out of the slot this year, but the addition of first-round rookie wideout Tetairoa McMillan will surely make Thielen harder to trust as a WR3/flex in fantasy based on volume alone like he was in 2023, when he recorded the third 1,000-yard season of his career on 103 targets.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has repeatedly expressed his displeasure regarding his role throughout the offseason. The 24-year-old, who played nearly 80% of his snaps in the slot last season, is hoping to get more action on the outside in 2025, potentially opening the door for additional downfield catches. He is coming off his best season with the Giants, amassing career-highs in receptions (93), receiving yards (699) and touchdowns (three). Robinson was also one of the NFL's most targeted receivers inside the red zone. With new quarterbacks under center, specifically, Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, and rookie Jaxson Dart, it could take time for the offense to get on the same page. At the same time, Malik Nabers is the No. 1 option on the depth chart, leaving little room for anyone else to be involved. However, Robinson may get his wish if Nabers or Darius Slayton get injured at some point during the year. Even then, Robinson isn't expected to be a consistent fantasy producer.
