Elijah Moore News
Tuesday, March 24, 8:48 PM
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed wide receiver Elijah Moore to a one-year deal, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. His signing offers additional receiver depth for the Eagles, especially as rumors continue to swirl about a potential A.J. Brown trade. Ironically, this move is a reunion of sorts for Moore and Brown, as the two were teammates at Ole Miss in 2018. Moore, a former second-round pick, is already on his fourth team in the last five years. He fetched 100 targets in back-to-back seasons in 2023 and 2024, but he was buried on the depth chart in Buffalo last season and ultimately caught just nine passes across nine games. He'll look to get back on track in Philadelphia, where there's plenty of wide receiver competition. In addition to rostering Brown and fellow starter DeVonta Smith, the Eagles recently signed veteran Marquise Brown.

John Metchie III News
Tuesday, May 26, 12:50 PM
Entering 2026, Carolina Panthers wide receiver John Metchie III will be playing for his fourth team in four NFL seasons. The 25-year-old started 2025 with the Philadelphia Eagles, earning just four targets across seven games with the team. A midseason trade to the New York Jets allowed him more playing time, and he hauled in 29 catches for 256 yards and two scores on 44 targets across nine games with New York. With the Panthers, Metchie III's playing time is far from guaranteed. However, outside of 2025 first-round wideout Tetairoa McMillan, no Carolina wideout has ever recorded 50 receptions in a season. Metchie III should also have existing chemistry with Panthers quarterback Bryce Young, as the two of them played their college football together at the University of Alabama. In deeper dynasty formats, Metchie III could be a worthy buy-low dart throw for fantasy managers entering 2026.
