Chris Godwin Jr. News
Friday, September 11, 1:27 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. is hopeful to play his first full season since 2023. The injuries have held Godwin back the past few years, but the 30-year-old is hopeful to bounce back this season. The departure of Mike Evans this offseason could mean that Godwin takes on a bigger role offensively. He'll get a plus matchup to begin the season against a Cincinnati Bengals defense that finished in the bottom 10 last year. Godwin has built excellent chemistry with quarterback Baker Mayfield throughout the years. The injuries have kept Godwin out of mind recently, but he should be a viable WR3 against the Bengals on Sunday.

DK Metcalf News
Friday, September 11, 5:16 PM
Wide receiver DK Metcalf will be a big piece of the Pittsburgh Steelers' aerial attack in Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons. The 28-year-old wideout was sidelined for the final few weeks of training camp with an undisclosed ailment, but came off the injury report less than a week before the Steelers' season opener. Metcalf's numbers dipped in his first season in Pittsburgh, and he finished the 2025 campaign with 59 receptions for 850 yards and six touchdowns in the air. Though Michael Pittman Jr. will be competition for targets this season, quarterback Aaron Rodgers told reporters on Sept. 2 that he "needs to get the ball" to Metcalf, so that effort should start on Sept. 13. Metcalf is a solid WR3 in fantasy headed into Week 1 and should flex his muscle as a red-zone threat against Atlanta.
