Is Cooper Kupp Still Roster-Worthy in Dynasty Formats?

Friday, May 29, 10:59 AM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp posted one of the least productive seasons of his career in 2025, recording 47 catches for 593 yards and two touchdowns on 70 targets across 16 games. After many years as a WR1 with the Los Angeles Rams, Kupp fell into a secondary role in Seattle behind superstar Seahawks wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Entering 2026, Kupp still projects to be behind Smith-Njigba on the target pecking order and may also slip below younger Seattle wideouts Rashid Shaheed and Tory Horton. While the veteran Kupp still provides value as a trusty possession receiver, he no longer offers the same production upside he did at his peak as he enters his age-33 season. In dynasty formats, managers may want to consider dropping Kupp in favor of a younger pass-catcher.

Malik Nabers Making "Really Good Progress"

Wednesday, June 10, 9:14 AM

New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh said wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) is making "really good progress" and is "very hopeful that he'll be back soon," according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Harbaugh added that he understands it will take time for Nabers to fully get back to himself. The head coach said a few weeks ago that Nabers was in the middle of his rehab from a meniscus and ACL tear, and he's now estimating that Nabers is 70-80% through it now. The 22-year-old former sixth overall pick in 2024 out of LSU was a Pro Bowler in his first year in the NFL and has caught 127 passes for 1,475 yards and nine touchdowns in his first 19 games with the Giants, proving that he's a high-end WR1 when healthy. However, the uncertainty surrounding his return timeline as he prepares for his third NFL season has caused him to fall in 2026 fantasy rankings. It's unclear if he'll be ready for the start of training camp at the end of next month, which has made him more of a high-risk/high-reward No. 2 WR target in fantasy drafts in 2026.
