Bo Melton News
Wednesday, January 14, 12:15 PM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver/cornerback Bo Melton (ankle) said that he expects to need just one month to recover from the ankle injury that he suffered in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Barring a setback, Melton should be good to take part in the team's offseason workouts in the spring. The 26-year-old is unsure if he'll work more as a receiver or defensive back going into the 2026 season. Melton was mostly a backup wideout for the Packers this year, catching only four passes for 107 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets, transitioning more to a defensive role. He'll be a restricted free agent this offseason, which means he'll most likely return to Green Bay. We aren't expecting Melton to have any real fantasy football value in the fall.

Jimmy Horn Jr. News
Friday, May 29, 5:38 AM
As a sixth-round rookie in 2025, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. failed to make an impact while playing in one of the more wide-open receiver rooms in the league, finishing the year with 108 yards and no scores on 11 receptions. Heading into 2026, the Panthers made minimal additions to a room that falls off quickly behind 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year Tetairoa McMillan, signing John Metchie III in free agency and spending a third-round pick on Chris Brazzell II, but at only 174 pounds, Horn could still struggle to find the field in an offense that ran the ball at an above-average rate in 2025. With the sturdier Jalen Coker returning from injury in Week 7 and reclaiming primary slot responsibilities, Horn did not top a 31% snap share in any game as a rookie, and there's little reason to believe the diminutive wideout will see a substantial uptick in year two. At RotoBaller's dynasty WR143, he is not a player who needs to be rostered in even the deepest of dynasty leagues.
