Casey Washington News
Saturday, September 13, 10:09 PM
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Casey Washington (concussion) did not pass the league's concussion protocol and will be inactive on Sunday against the Vikings. The 24-year-old had his best game in the NFL last week, hauling in three of his six targets for 33 yards, but suffered a concussion during the fourth quarter of the contest. The University of Illinois product's six targets were fourth-most on the team and more than veteran Ray-Ray McCloud III's five targets, potentially signaling a changing of the guard for the third wide receiver spot in the Atlanta offense, but it was likely more a product of Darnell Mooney's absence in Week 1 than anything else. With Mooney expected to play in Week 2 but with Washington out, we'll have to see how things shake out in Week 3 in order to get a better feel for Washington's role in this offense. For now, Washington can be left to the waiver wire in fantasy leagues.

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.
