Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Adonai Mitchell has reportedly struggled early in training camp. According to James Boyd, Mitchell dropped two passes during Saturday's practice. That now makes four dropped passes in four practices. Fantasy managers shouldn't read too much into this as it's still early in camp. Head coach Shane Steichen didn't seem bothered by it, saying players are going to have good and bad plays at times. Mitchell is going to have an uphill battle for playing time with Josh Downs, Michael Pittman Jr., and Alec Pierce at the top of the depth chart. It's also worth noting that the Colts added tight end Tyler Warren in the first-round of this year's draft. Mitchell might only be worth stashing in dynasty leagues or deep formats to begin the season.

AtoZSports.com's Easton Freeze reports that the Tennessee Titans may alter the role that rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike played on the field during his time at college. The 23-year-old has speed for days and was deployed on a steady diet of nine routes during his tenure at the collegiate level. Rightfully so, when you consider he averaged a whopping 18.6 yards per reception -- good for a top-20 mark in the FBS. However, Freeze notes that Tennessee could opt to use him as a big-slot asset and that it wouldn't be surprising to see him garner a role early on in the offense due to his versatility. Dike's athleticism makes him an enticing option, and the Titans' lack of legitimate receiving weapons only furthers the intrigue. The rookie's playing time could be sparse to start, but he should get a decent chance at snaps eventually. He's an interesting dynasty dart-throw.
