George Pickens News
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.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Sunday, September 13, 4:39 PM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. did not give fantasy managers much to cheer about during Sunday's season opener versus the Los Angeles Chargers. Harrison made a nice 33-yard catch, and that was the only thing he did during the entire game. Fantasy managers were hopeful that things would turn around for Harrison in 2026. It's not starting great as he finished fifth on the team in targets with three during Sunday's victory. Somehow, rookie running back Jeremiyah Love finished with more targets than Harrison, who is a former fourth overall draft pick. Fantasy managers shouldn't give up after one game, but Harrison is probably safer used as a flex option until he proves that he can make more than one catch per game.
