Adonai Mitchell Building Good Chemistry with Geno Smith

Tuesday, August 11, 5:35 AM

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is expected to make a sizable jump this season, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Mitchell was the Colts' second-round pick in 2024 but has only had 464 receiving yards in 25 games with the team before coming to the Jets as part of the return in the Sauce Gardner trade. Mitchell has been very strong in training camp, earning praise from coach Aaron Glenn, who said that the combination of Smith and Mitchell "is really starting to impress me." Mitchell is in a contract year as well, which could motivate him to post a big year. He is currently the No. 69 WR in RotoBaller's rankings with a Yahoo fantasy football ADP of 153. He has the potential to be a regular contributor and a nice sleeper play if he locks down the WR2 spot in New York and continues to build a strong connection with Smith.

Cam Ward News

Cam Ward Heating Up at Titans Camp

Saturday, August 8, 6:38 AM

Tennessee Titans second-year quarterback Cam Ward has shown signs of growth throughout his second professional training camp. Titans senior writer Jim Wyatt reports that after what was potentially his best session of the summer on Thursday, the first overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft led a number of scoring drives during Friday night's scrimmage at Nissan Stadium. Ward saw his play improve throughout his rookie campaign, and with a new coaching staff and improved weaponry around him, he's a player who could take a sizable year two leap. At RotoBaller's QB25, he's regularly going undrafted outside of superflex leagues, but if he continues to take agency over an ascending offense, Ward could eventually play his way into the streaming conversation or more.
