Diontae Johnson News
Tuesday, October 28, 5:33 PM
Free-agent wide receiver Diontae Johnson is working out with the New York Giants on Tuesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Johnson was with the Cleveland Browns during training camp and the preseason, but he was cut before the start of the regular season and hasn't joined a team since. The 29-year-old former third-rounder by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2019 out of Toledo spent time with the Carolina Panthers, Baltimore Ravens, and Houston Texans last year, catching a combined 33 passes on 67 targets for 375 yards and three touchdowns. The vast majority of his production came in Carolina, as he caught just three passes for 18 yards in five games with Baltimore and Houston to close out the year. It's been a notable fall for Johnson over the last year-plus, and if he were to sign with the G-Men, he'd merely be battling for a chance to join the active 53-man roster as receiver depth.

Rashee Rice News
Monday, April 27, 9:11 AM
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice missed the first six games of the 2025 season due to a league suspension, and the final three due to a concussion. Across the eight games where he was on the field, the 26-year-old recorded 53 receptions for 571 yards and five touchdowns on 78 targets. Rice has now played just 12 games over the past two seasons and enters 2026 in need of a productive year without injury or off-field incidents standing in his way. As long as he's active, Rice profiles as the number one target in the Chiefs' passing game and carries significant fantasy upside, particularly in PPR-scoring formats. Kansas City added University of Cincinnati wide receiver Cyrus Allen in the fifth round of the 2026 draft and retains veteran tight end Travis Kelce, but Rice remains the team's most talented receiving option. While Rice's dynasty value is currently colored by his recent struggles to stay on the field, his production ceiling remains sky-high.
