Hollywood Brown News
Sunday, August 23, 7:25 PM
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Marquise "Hollywood" Brown is not expected to have a major role in the 2026 season. Brown had 49 receptions for 587 yards and five touchdowns in 16 games last season with the Kansas City Chiefs. The former first-round pick signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the Eagles this season, with expectations that he could be the second-string receiver behind DeVonta Smith. However, the additions of Dontayvion Wicks and Makai Lemon affect Brown's fantasy value, as both receivers are expected to play major roles this season. Second-year wideout Darius Cooper has been a standout at training camp and has garnered praise from quarterback Jalen Hurts. At best, Brown will be the WR4 in Philadelphia's run-heavy offense. While the name still carries some fantasy value, Brown is unlikely to produce this season.

Luke McCaffrey News
Wednesday, August 5, 5:51 AM
The Washington Commanders have one of the league's most wide-open receiver depth charts behind locked-in starter Terry McLaurin, but a player who has been consistently showing up through the early stages of training camp has been third-year wideout Luke McCaffrey. Commanders reporter Ben Standig points out that McCaffrey has regularly seen work alongside McLaurin and Treylon Burks in three-receiver sets, and on an overall down day for the offense on Tuesday, the 2024 third-round pick stood out with a number of positive plays. McCaffrey's usage was on the rise in year two before a broken collarbone ended his season on the opening kickoff of a Week 9 loss to the Seahawks, but with the injury squarely behind him, he's been able to stand out from a muddled receiver room, and he energized the crowd on Tuesday with a pair of deep connections from Jayden Daniels. McCaffrey is not a player regularly being drafted in 2026 lineup leagues, but if he can continue to develop chemistry with Daniels and earn a regular role in the Commanders' offense, he could work his way into streaming consideration by season's end.
