Ihmir Smith-Marsette News
Saturday, August 24, 9:36 PM
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Ihmir Smith-Marsette (ankle) left the team's preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills early on Saturday after landing awkwardly completing a catch in the second quarter. The 24-year-old hauled in 2-of-3 targets for 11 yards while contributing 27 yards on two punt returns and a field-flipping 46 yards on his lone kick return. Smith-Marsette was productive before he picked up the injury and is expected to be the team's returner this upcoming season. Barring the severity of his ankle issue, that could still be the case. It's a bit early to tell how impactful the NFL's new kickoff rules will be come the start of the regular season. However, fantasy managers may want to keep the Iowa product on their radar as a sneaky option, depending on how your league values return yards. His Yahoo! ADP is far down enough that he'd be best suited as a prospective waiver-wire add.

Gage Larvadain News
Friday, August 28, 6:49 AM
On a night where seemingly everything went right for the Cleveland Browns offensive reserves, second-year wide receiver Gage Larvadain led the team with six targets and five catches, connecting with Dillon Gabriel on the first play of the night and ending Thursday's 37-13 win with 48 receiving yards and an additional four yards on the ground. An undrafted free agent in 2025, Larvadain caught seven passes as a rookie, but even following the release of fourth-year veteran Cedric Tillman on Thursday, he could still face a numbers crunch ahead of Sunday's roster cutdown deadline. The Browns spent two top 40 picks in the 2026 NFL draft on receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston, and with Jerry Jeudy and Isaiah Bond expected to round out the room, even should Larvadain stick on the roster for his special teams contributions, there is very little fantasy production to be found on the fringes of an offense that still faces serious questions at quarterback.
