Calvin Ridley News
Friday, August 14, 6:13 AM
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley got the start along with the rest of the team's first-unit offense during Thursday night's preseason opener, and he connected with quarterback Cam Ward on an 18-yard pass as part of the Titans' 11-play, 95-yard opening scoring drive. Ridley missed most of the 2025 season with a hamstring injury and a broken fibula, but his 925-yard pace across his five healthy games would have led the team by a significant margin. An overhauled receiver room featuring free agent acquisition Wan'Dale Robinson and fourth overall pick Carnell Tate adds significant target competition in 2026, but often going undrafted outside of deeper leagues, Ridley is a player to watch early in the season, as his versatility could still lead to usable fantasy contributions, even as the third option in what could be an ascending offense.

Jauan Jennings News
Friday, August 28, 10:46 AM
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings still looks set to open the season as part of the team's top receiving trio, but his redraft outlook has taken a small hit as Tai Felton has pushed for more work. Jennings signed a one-year deal with Minnesota in May after catching 55 passes for 643 yards and a career-high nine touchdowns in 15 games for San Francisco last season. The Vikings continue to list Jennings as a starter alongside Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison, and their own coverage referred to those three as the team's top trio after Felton's 50-yard catch against Baltimore. Felton's strong summer is still worth noting. The second-year receiver played extensively with the first-team offense in the preseason opener and followed it with three catches for 66 yards against Baltimore. Jennings was already facing a crowded target tree with Jefferson, Addison, and T.J. Hockenson, so another receiver earning snaps lowers his weekly ceiling. RotoBaller currently has Jennings around WR59. He remains a reasonable late-round depth option, but the path to dependable volume looks narrower than it did when camp opened.
