Calvin Ridley News
Wednesday, July 22, 11:11 AM
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley (leg) battled through an injury-ravaged 2025 season, as hamstring and leg injuries limited him to just seven games. While the veteran wideout is expected to be ready to go for the start of 2026, his place on the Titans' wide receiver depth chart has changed following the team's offseason additions of wideouts Carnell Tate and Wan'Dale Robinson. Ridley is also entering his age-32 campaign, and the overall offensive environment in Tennessee remains questionable ahead of quarterback Cam Ward's second NFL season. However, Ridley was a productive player as recently as 2024, when he recorded 64 catches for 1,017 yards and four touchdowns on 120 targets across 17 games. While he should not be expected to provide the same production he once did at his peak, Ridley's draft-day cost in redraft leagues has plummeted all the way down to WR71. At that price, Ridley could be a late-round sleeper worth targeting.

Kayshon Boutte News
Tuesday, July 21, 6:38 AM
New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte served as the team's most reliable downfield weapon in 2025, but there is little reliability to be found in his role for 2026. The subject of trade rumors throughout much of the offseason, Boutte remains with the team as the Patriots prepare to open training camp with their first public practice on Saturday, but major changes to the receiver room create questions of where he fits into an ascending offense. The Patriots traded for three-time Pro Bowler A.J. Brown after signing Romeo Doubs to a four-year, $68 million deal, and with both players spending the majority of their careers on the outside, Boutte could be pressed for playing time if he does indeed stick in New England. While a camp injury elsewhere could rekindle trade conversations and land Boutte in a more favorable situation, as it stands today, the former sixth-round pick holds little fantasy appeal in 2026 redraft leagues.
