Isaac TeSlaa News
Saturday, October 24, 6:22 AM
Across five games in 2026, Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa has recorded nine catches for 187 yards on 19 targets. The 24-year-old has flashed upside, but he was also held without a catch on two targets in Detroit's most recent game before its Week 6 bye. In Week 7, the Lions will take on a Green Bay Packers defense that currently ranks third in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (6.0) and eighth in passing touchdowns allowed (seven). If Detroit's defense continues to struggle, there's a chance that the Lions could be forced into a pass-heavy game script that allows TeSlaa to see an increase in targets. However, the Lions have a number of pass-game weapons that are ahead of TeSlaa in the target pecking order between wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, as well as tight end Sam LaPorta and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. TeSlaa remains tough for fantasy managers to trust in Week 7.

Zachariah Branch News
Saturday, October 24, 9:07 AM
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Zachariah Branch has yet to post a big game in his brief NFL career, but for those managers in deep leagues scouring the wire for a lottery ticket, the 2026 third-rounder could be an option. The University of Georgia product has garnered exactly two targets in each of the last five games, hauling in all but one of them. It has amounted to nine catches for 55 scoreless yards, but although it isn't much, it is at least consistent. The 5-foot-10 receiver muffed two kick returns last week, and although coach Kevin Stefanski stated that he would not lose his role there, perhaps eventually he will, and maybe the team will look to get him more involved on offense. Regardless, with a ranking of No. 77 overall at WR for RotoBaller, the 22-year-old could be a very deep league consideration this week and a speculative stash for the weeks ahead.
