Efton Chism III News
Tuesday, November 10, 8:15 AM
New England Patriots wide receiver Efton Chism III, handling a larger role with teammate A.J. Brown (ankle, knee) sidelined by ankle and knee concerns, has seen five targets in each of the past two games, with his second-quarter touchdown against the Packers elevating him to WR17 in Week 9. Brown will reportedly travel to Germany ahead of a Week 10 international matchup with the Lions, but should he miss his third consecutive game, Chism offers desperation flex appeal against a defense that has been among the most favorable matchups for fantasy wide receivers. A potentially expanded role for Mack Hollins following his first game back from injured reserve lowers Chism's ceiling, but in a matchup with one of the highest projected point totals of the week, the second-year wideout could stay involved in the red zone.

Colbie Young News
Sunday, August 23, 6:20 AM
Cincinnati Bengals rookie wide receiver Colbie Young caught three of his eight targets in Saturday night's preseason win over the Bears, racking up 48 yards and a touchdown. Through two preseason games, Young leads the team in targets and yards, and the 2026 fourth-round pick has emerged as a potential third receiver option behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. The role has been held over much of the past three seasons by 2023 sixth-round pick Andrei Iosivas, but in games with both Chase and Higgins active, the 26-year-old has struggled to find any consistent production. While few receivers league-wide are capable of threatening the Bengals' top duo for consistent volume, Young is a toolsy prospect who ran a 4.49-second 40-yard dash at 218 pounds, and in an offense coming into the season healthy and projected to be among the league's highest-scoring units, he has spike week potential as a deep best ball sleeper. With his strong training camp translating into in-game scenarios, it could be a matter of time before Young overtakes Iosivas and earns a significant role in three-receiver sets.
