Devaughn Vele Continues to Carve Out Important Role in Saints' Offense

Saturday, October 10, 6:48 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele continued his breakout season against the Falcons, recording six catches for 54 yards and a touchdown in Week 4's loss. The third-year receiver leads all Saints skill-position players in snap percentage, playing 278 of the team's 306 offensive snaps (91%). Vele has been especially effective on third down, recording 109 receiving yards on third-down situations, the sixth-highest total in the league and ahead of teammate Chris Olave (98 yards). Vele no doubt will continue to see consistent opportunities in the Saints' pass-heavy offense, but questions remain about his ability to score regularly. He has established a solid floor as a weekly WR3/FLEX option and ranks as WR33 in RotoBaller's rankings this week.

Bhayshul Tuten Could Be on the Verge of a Breakout Season

Thursday, October 8, 5:12 PM

Across four games so far in 2026, Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten has recorded 60 carries for 277 yards and two touchdowns. Tuten has split rushing work to some degree with fellow Jaguars back Chris Rodriguez Jr., who has tallied 108 rushing yards and two touchdowns this season. However, Tuten has emerged as the clear lead back in Jacksonville in recent weeks, recording back-to-back games with at least 17 touches and 90 yards from scrimmage in Weeks 3 and 4. The 23-year-old currently ranks as the RB15 in half-PPR scoring and could only be on his way up as the season progresses. As long as Jacksonville's key offensive pieces around him stay healthy, Tuten profiles as a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside for fantasy managers going forward.
