Brandin Cooks Off Fantasy Radars for Week 1

Saturday, September 6, 11:01 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks returns to the Big Easy after previously playing with the team from 2014-2016. Last year in Dallas, he caught 26 passes for 259 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games. Cooks was named one of eight team captains ahead of Week 1 against the Cardinals and is listed as a starter. However, he'll have to compete with Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and star running back Alvin Kamara for targets while second-year quarterback Spencer Rattler is under center. For fantasy purposes, Cooks should be off radars, with only slight appeal if any of the primary pass-catchers miss time.

Cowboys to Continue Manufacturing Touches for KaVontae Turpin?

Friday, September 26, 10:44 AM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin has seen consistent usage as a gadget piece in the team's offense so far in 2025. Through his first three games of the season, Turpin has logged eight catches for 129 yards and a touchdown to go along with 19 rushing yards on five carries. With star Cowboys' wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) potentially facing a multi-week absence due to a high ankle sprain, Dallas could be even more motivated to manufacture touches for Turpin. The 29-year-old will face a tough matchup in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers, but Turpin could be a decent desperation flex play in deep leagues due to his big-play potential.
