CeeDee Lamb Looking For a Bounce Back Season After Injury Plagued 2025 Season

Friday, July 24, 5:54 AM

Dallas Cowboys superstar wide receiver CeeDee Lamb finished as the WR20 last season after he had three consecutive top-10 finishes in 2022-2024. He had a high ankle sprain that cost him earlier in the year, and with the addition of George Pickens, Lamb's upside was capped to some degree in a high-powered Cowboys offense. As we look ahead to 2026, Lamb profiles as a slam dunk first-round pick. He was efficient when he played, ranking ninth in the NFL in yards per route run (2.41) and 12th in explosive rating, and although his opportunity and productivity lacked compared to years past, he is a prime candidate to bounce back due to his track record, projected workload, and talent. Lamb remains a top player in both redraft and dynasty formats, and fantasy managers should be looking to target him if possible.

Tucker Kraft Could Participate in Joint Practice Later This Month

Sunday, August 2, 10:37 AM

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said that it's realistic for tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) to take part in the team's joint practice with the Arizona Cardinals later in the month, according to Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. LaFleur said that Kraft will have to hit all of his benchmarks to be cleared to do so. The 25-year-old started training camp on the Physically Unable to Perform list while recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 9 of last year, but the Packers have already activated him, and he took part in his first practice on Friday. Barring a setback as he continues to ramp up, Kraft is trending toward being a full-go for Week 1 of the 2026 regular season in early September, and despite his serious knee injury from 2025, he should be considered a top-five fantasy TE. The former third-rounder from South Dakota State was in the midst of a breakout last year before his torn ACL, catching 32 passes for 489 yards and six touchdowns in eight games played for Green Bay.
