Dyami Brown News
Tuesday, July 14, 5:19 PM
Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown is hopeful to rebound in his reunion with the organization. Brown spent the first four years of his career with the Commanders before joining the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2025. He failed to make an impression on the Jags with 20 receptions and 227 receiving yards across 14 games. Brown is one-and-done with the Jags and returned to Washington on a one-year deal. The 26-year-old is likely only to fight for targets given the depth the Commanders have at wideout. He's expected to compete for the fourth receiver role with Van Jefferson, Jaylin Lane, and Luke McCaffrey. It's likely going to take a few injuries for Brown to be relevant in Washington again. Dynasty managers can feel comfortable moving on from Brown.

Dont'e Thornton Jr. News
Friday, June 19, 6:02 PM
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. was unable to find much success this past season. To be fair, the Raiders' offense was horrible as a unit, but Thornton barely showed up on the stat sheet. He finished the season with 10 receptions for 135 receiving yards and zero touchdowns in 13 games. The 24-year-old might've missed his opportunity with the Raiders adding some reinforcements this offseason. They signed Jalen Nailor and Dareke Young in free agency, while adding Malik Benson in the sixth round of this year's draft. Thornton could fall to fourth on the depth chart, which is not a good spot, given Brock Bowers eats a ton of targets at tight end as well. He's young enough to hold onto in dynasty leagues, but Thornton having a consistent role in 2026 seems unlikely.
