Deven Thompkins Signs With Panthers

Thursday, July 25, 6:44 PM

The Carolina Panthers have agreed to terms on a deal with wide receiver Devin Thompkins. The 24-year-old spent the first two seasons of his career with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He was waived by the team in late May after finishing with 22 receptions in 22 games with the team. Thompkins was often times used as the No. 4 or even 5th option on the depth chart. He didn't get a ton of chances, so maybe he'll see an increased workload in Carolina. He'll rejoin coach Dave Canales who was with the Bucs last season. Maybe Canales can unlock something we haven't seen from Thompkins.

Jordyn Tyson's Redraft Value Fading Amidst Injury Concerns

Friday, September 4, 7:00 PM

After being selected eighth overall in the 2026 NFL Draft, New Orleans Saints wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) was initially expected to play a significant role in his team's offense as a rookie. However, the 22-year-old suffered a hamstring injury during training camp that will cause him to start the year on Injured Reserve and could be serious enough to keep him out longer than the mandatory four games. Tyson's hamstring issue is made a bit more concerning by the fact that he also suffered two separate hamstring injuries that caused him to miss time during his final collegiate season at Arizona State. Even when he is eventually cleared to return, it could take Tyson a while to be fully integrated into the New Orleans offense. The young wideout remains a high-upside prospect in dynasty formats, but his redraft value is highly questionable ahead of 2026.
