George Pickens Being Moved Around

Tuesday, August 5, 9:16 PM

Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated writes that it's a good sign of Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens in head coach Brian Schottenheimer's offense that the coaches have been able to "move him around to different receiver spots after he was exclusively an X receiver (split end) in Pittsburgh." Pickens and CeeDee Lamb worked out together in Florida in the offseason, and new receivers coach Junior Adams "has had the two working off each other constantly to try and build culture in his room." Things didn't end well for Pickens with the Steelers, but the early signs going into his first year in Dallas are "pretty good." The 24-year-old former second-rounder has had at least 801 receiving yards in each of his first three seasons. He's going to take a back seat to Lamb in this offense, but in what should be a pass-happy scheme, Pickens has lots of upside as a WR3/flex in fantasy in his new home.

Jordan Addison Avoids Serious Injury

Wednesday, August 20, 9:25 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison (hand) was forced to make an early exit from Wednesday's practice. Addison appeared to have suffered a hand or arm injury that resulted in him missing the rest of practice. The good news is that Addison is reportedly fine and didn't suffer any notable injuries from this incident. This is great news for the Vikings who are already battling multiple injuries at wideout. Addison is expected to miss the first three games of the regular season due to a suspension. He should be ready to go for Week 4 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
