Gunner Olszewski Lands On The IR

Saturday, September 14, 5:02 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Gunner Olszewski (groin) landed on the injured reserve list on Saturday. The wideout injured his groin in August. However, after it appeared he'd be good to go for the Week 1 opener against the Vikings, he reaggravated the ailment during warmups. Unfortunately, he'll now be on the shelf for a while. Olszewski has appeared in 65 games for the Patriots and Steelers throughout his career, amassing 15 catches for 180 yards and a touchdown. Without question, that type of production won't land him on most fantasy rosters. Still, the 27-year-old was expected to contribute as a return man, so the special teams unit will take a hit without him.

Laviska Shenault Jr. Signing With Seahawks

Tuesday, April 2, 4:08 PM

Free-agent wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is signing with the Seattle Seahawks, according to ESPN reporter Brady Henderson. Shenault was originally a second-round pick in 2020 by the Jacksonville Jaguars out of Colorado, but he has not found his footing over the first four seasons of his career. The 25-year-old posted at least 600 receiving yards in each of his two seasons with the Jagaurs but totaled just 332 yards in 21 games during his two-year stint with the Carolina Panthers. With DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba on the roster, it'd be a big surprise if he's a fantasy-relevant player in 2024. Assuming he makes the 53-man roster, he'll likely be utilized as a depth player and a special teamer.
