Bub Means News
Sunday, August 16, 11:43 AM
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Bub Means turned in a strong showing in Saturday's 24-20 preseason loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, catching four passes for a game-high 77 yards. Means came close to scoring in the second quarter when Zach Wilson found him down the field and he was stopped at the 1-yard line. Rookie tight end Oscar Delp scored on the next play. Means also hauled in a 37-yard pass later in the quarter, giving him two of New Orleans' biggest gains of the night. The performance was especially encouraging after Means missed all of the 2025 regular season because of ankle injuries. He is currently listed fourth on one receiver line of the Saints' unofficial depth chart, behind Chris Olave, Barion Brown and Trey Palmer, so there is still plenty of work to do. Still, 77 yards in his first preseason action of 2026 gives Means something to build on as he fights for a spot in the receiver rotation.

Caleb Douglas News
Saturday, August 22, 6:52 PM
Miami Dolphins rookie wide receiver Caleb Douglas did not see any game action in the Dolphins' 26-3 preseason loss to the New York Giants. With no reported injuries or soreness, Douglas likely sat due to his standing in the Dolphins' starting offense. The third-round pick has spent most of training camp and the preseason with the first-team offense, was listed as a starter on the unofficial depth chart, and is now too important to risk in a preseason game. Miami's receiver room remains lackluster, with Malik Washington and third-round pick Chris Bell expected to operate alongside Douglas. However, it appears the former Texas Tech receiver is an integral piece of this offense and should be considered in the late rounds of fantasy drafts.
