Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) underwent a cleanup procedure on his knee following the 2024 campaign but is expected to be ready for training camp. While it's never encouraging to hear about a player going under the knife, this procedure is a minor one and should not impact his ability in 2025. Over the last three seasons, St. Brown has averaged 113.3 receptions, 1,313 receiving yards, and 9.3 receiving touchdowns. Assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks, the USC product remains a clear WR1 in fantasy football. Although offensive coordinator Ben Johnson is gone, he should remain the target hog in Detroit's offense.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that he expects both wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) and offensive tackle Josh Simmons (knee) to be full participants at the start of training camp at the end of July. Rice played in only four games last year before suffering a season-ending LCL tear. The injury is behind the 25-year-old, though, and he'll be ready to rock for Week 1 of the 2025 regular season this September after he was a full participant in OTAs and minicamp this spring. Before his injury last year, Rice was the clear WR1 for quarterback Patrick Mahomes and had 24 catches for 288 yards and three touchdowns in the first three games. However, he has a possible suspension hanging over his head for a hit-and-run incident in March of last year, which makes him more of a high-end WR3 target in fantasy drafts this fall.
