George Pickens Flops In Week 1 Loss

Sunday, September 13, 8:04 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens entered 2026 with massive expectations, but met none of them in Week 1. He was targeted six times, hauling in three passes for 26 yards. He was quiet even against one of 2025's worst NFL defenses, especially against the pass. Pickens may need some time to get going, but the entire offense looked sluggish in what should have been an easy matchup. A dominant 2025 gave way to a flop for Pickens in Week 1. Nobody really did much, though. Dallas possessed the ball only two times in the second half, and scored touchdowns on both drives. Their defense struggled mightily, though, with Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart effectively able to move the ball and grind the clock down. Pickens' uncharacteristic drop in the first quarter punctuated a night he hopes to forget before Week 2, when Dallas faces another divisional rival in the Washington Commanders.

Dalton Kincaid Remains Hyper-Efficient Even with Increased Usage

Wednesday, September 16, 10:00 AM

After leading all tight ends with 2.77 yards per route run in 2025, the bull case for Buffalo Bills fourth-year player Dalton Kincaid was clear if better health could lead to more involvement in 2026. In Week 1, he ran the second-most routes on the team and sacrificed nothing in the way of efficiency, again leading the position with an astonishing 5.65 yards per route run. Kincaid finished the week as the fantasy TE5 and was the only player in the top 14 to get there without a touchdown. Should his health allow him to become the focal point of the offense he was drafted to be as a first-round pick in 2023, a top-five season is very much in the cards, and Kincaid is RotoBaller's TE4 heading into a Week 2 matchup with the Lions.
