Garrett Wilson News
Sunday, August 2, 7:00 AM
During the New York Jets' first public practice of training camp, the offense looked to be in mid-season form, with team contributors Amanda Vogt and Eric Allen noting that the ball didn't touch the ground once for the first-team offense, with fifth-year receiver Garrett Wilson standing out as an early target for quarterback Geno Smith. On a day in which he went 11/11 with four touchdowns in team drills, Smith's first two connections of competitive sessions went to Wilson, who was charted with five total catches and a touchdown. Wilson has long been capable of drawing one of the heaviest target shares in the league, and his early connection with Smith could lead to continued volume throughout the season. After pacing as the WR6 through the first five weeks of an injury-shortened 2025 campaign, Wilson is RotoBaller's WR19 and a smart pick as a player who could easily break back into the top 12 of the position.

Chase Brown News
Tuesday, August 4, 9:10 AM
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown continues to show growth as a receiver. Joe Burrow said Brown has taken another leap catching the ball this offseason, while Charlie Clifford noted that the fourth-year back lined up wide for a couple of reps during Monday's 11-on-11 work. Brown already set a franchise record for a running back, halfback, or fullback with 69 receptions last season, turning them into 437 yards and five touchdowns. He also rushed for 1,019 yards and six scores, giving him 1,456 yards from scrimmage in his first full season as Cincinnati's lead back. A few snaps split out wide do not guarantee a major change in how the Bengals use him, but the look fits Brown's growing role as an all-around weapon. His receiving work remains a major part of his fantasy value, and any further expansion would make him even harder to take off the field.
