Amon-Ra St. Brown News

Amon-Ra St. Brown Practices on Sunday

Monday, July 21, 1:59 PM

The Athletic's Colton Pouncy writes that Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) took part in training camp practice on Sunday. St. Brown had offseason surgery to clean up his knee, but the fact that he's already taking part in on-field work at training camp this summer is a sign that it shouldn't be an issue when the regular season kicks off in early September. It wouldn't be a surprise if the 25-year-old is limited in some workouts early in camp, but all signs point to him being fine for fantasy managers to begin the 2025 campaign. In 2024, St. Brown had 115 receptions for 1,263 yards and 12 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games on 141 targets, and he should continue to be quarterback Jared Goff's primary passing-game target in new offensive coordinator John Morton's scheme. RotoBaller has St. Brown ranked as the No. 7 wideout.

Texans Rework Nico Collins' Contract, Clear $9.8 Million In Cap Space

Wednesday, March 5, 11:10 AM

The Houston Texans restructured the contract of star wide receiver Nico Collins, clearing $9.8 million in salary cap space for 2025. According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, it was a simple restructure. Last offseason, Collins signed a three-year, $72.75 million contract extension with Houston following a 1,297-yard receiving season. The former Michigan Wolverine posted 1,006 receiving yards and seven touchdowns in just 12 games in 2024. With Stefon Diggs likely out of Houston entering next season, Collins is poised for another strong year as quarterback C.J. Stroud's No. 1 wide receiver.
