Davante Adams News
Sunday, April 19, 8:20 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams finds himself in a classic sell-high situation this offseason. He was the overall WR6 in half-PPR leagues when healthy (14 games) last season. A significant portion of his fantasy production came from his 14 touchdowns, which tied his highest mark since 2020 in Green Bay. Adams is due for touchdown regression in 2026, even though he plays in a Rams offense that throws the ball near the goal line a lot. As a result, his volume and yardage potential will carry more weight, and we're not super bullish about that. He had a relatively modest 60 catches for 789 yards last year, and he never caught more than six passes in a single game. If the touchdown total scales back, Adams will have extreme difficulty remaining a top-15 receiver with that volume share. At 33 years old, Adams' days of being a top-10 fantasy receiver could be behind him. Yet, managers can capitalize on the fact that he has been a top-12 receiver in each of the last six seasons, using that statistic to sell high and pick up some significant compensation in a dynasty league trade. He has fallen to WR41 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.

Xavier Worthy News
Friday, May 8, 8:09 AM
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid told The Athletic's Jesse Newell at last month's annual NFL meeting that the team limited wide receiver Xavier Worthy's (shoulder) routes last year to protect him after his labrum injury in Week 1. "I would tell you that we kind of, after that, we were afraid to do certain things with (Worthy)," Reid said. "So I think him coming back healthy, I think opens up that whole picture you saw during training camp, where he had a whole bunch of different routes in there." The 23-year-old former first-rounder and speed threat took a step back in Year 2 in 2025, catching just 42 of 73 targets for 532 yards and one touchdown in 14 games after putting up a 59-638-6 line in 17 regular-season games as a rookie in 2024. Worthy's shoulder injury never allowed him to reach his true ceiling in his sophomore campaign, and he never went over 85 receiving yards in a single game. With a full route tree again in 2026, Worthy will have bounce-back potential, but his slight frame (5-foot-11, 165 pounds) will continue to leave him vulnerable to injuries. He's currently ranked as the No. 52 fantasy wideout at RotoBaller, but he'll have bounce-back potential in Year 3 if he can stay healthy.
