Davante Adams News
Tuesday, June 23, 6:00 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams scored nine of his league-leading 14 receiving touchdowns from within the five-yard line, and while that makes him an obvious regression candidate for 2026, his 42 career scores from within that same range are the most of any player since 2000. It is not by chance that Adams ranks seventh on the all-time receiving touchdown list. His legendarily quick release package and encyclopedic knowledge of defensive back tendencies have made him one of the most unguardable players in the red zone for most of his career, and even if he's begun to show signs of decline between the 20s, he is still as safe a bet as any to lead the league in scoring grabs again. Touchdowns have long been one of the least predictable elements of fantasy football, but the 33-year-old Adams has 12 seasons of history on his side, and at RotoBaller's WR15, he remains one of the highest upside plays from outside the opening rounds of 2026 drafts.

Ladd McConkey News
Tuesday, June 16, 3:16 PM
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (hamstring) said he strained his left hamstring during Phase 2 of the team's offseason program, but he doesn't view it as a significant concern and expects to be ready for the start of training camp in late July, according to Kris Rhim of ESPN. Head coach Jim Harbaugh said that McConkey is "working through something," but that he will take part in individual drills during this week's mandatory minicamp. The 24-year-old burst onto the scene as a rookie in 2024 after the Bolts took him with the 34th overall pick in the second round in 2024 out of the University of Georgia, catching 82 of his 112 targets for 1,149 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games. McConkey took a slight step back as a sophomore, though, finishing with a 66-789-6 line on 106 targets across 16 regular-season games. In his first year in new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel's scheme, McConkey could be headed for another big year, making him a strong WR2 target in fantasy drafts, especially in PPR formats.
