Davante Adams News
Sunday, March 15, 12:47 PM
The Los Angeles Rams recently explored the idea of trading superstar wide receiver Davante Adams, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. This rumor follows prominent reporting that indicated the Rams had been looking into acquiring Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown. Such a trade would have given the Rams one of the greatest wide receiver rooms in NFL history, featuring Brown, Adams, and Puka Nacua. However, it likely would not have lasted very long. If the Rams acquired Brown, they would have looked to trade away Adams before his $6 million roster bonus was due on Sunday. Now that Adams' bonus is locked in, the Rams will likely keep the veteran receiver and stay away from Brown. That's consistent with another report from Florio that said the Rams have called off their trade pursuit of the Eagles' superstar. For now, Los Angeles will run back an elite wide receiver tandem of Nacua and Adams, both of whom could be strong WR1 options in fantasy football once again next year.

Sterling Shepard News
Sunday, February 22, 10:27 AM
Across 13 games in 2025, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard recorded 39 receptions for 371 yards and one touchdown on 53 targets. With veteran Buccaneers wideouts Mike Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. sidelined for a significant portion of the year by injury, Shepard saw increased opportunity for playing time, particularly early in the season. However, he was largely unable to hold off Bucs rookie wide receivers Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson, and the late-season return of second-year wideout Jalen McMillan pushed Shepard even further down the depth chart. Shepard is now set for unrestricted free agency, and a change of scenery away from the crowded wide receiver room in Tampa Bay could help his fantasy outlook. Still, Shepard is entering his age-33 season and has not recorded 40 receptions in a season since 2020. Regardless of where he ends up in 2026, Shepard's fantasy-relevant days may be behind him.
