Isaiah Bond News
Thursday, August 20, 6:25 PM
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Isaiah Bond is highlighted by Zac Jackson of The Athletic as one of Cleveland's players with the most to prove in the team's upcoming preseason game against the Buffalo Bills. Bond flashed upside but also battled inconsistency as a rookie in 2025, recording 18 catches for 338 yards on 44 targets across 16 games (two starts). However, the Browns added significant talent to their wide receiver room over the offseason by using top-40 selections in the 2026 NFL Draft on wideouts KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston. Veteran wide receivers Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman remain potential factors in Cleveland as well. While the 22-year-old Bond still offers some potential, it appears as though he may need to show well in the Browns' remaining preseason games to assure his place in the team's plans for 2026.

Skyler Bell News
Saturday, August 15, 5:10 PM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Skyler Bell (lower body) is working through a lower body injury, head coach Joe Brady told Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. It sounds like Bell's absence from Saturday's preseason opener was merely precautionary, as Brady noted that Bell likely would have played if it were a regular-season game. The fourth-round pick has intriguing upside after tallying 101 catches, 1,278 yards, and 13 touchdowns in his final season at UConn. Once he clears the injury hurdle, he has a chance to compete for meaningful playing time ahead of Keon Coleman and behind DJ Moore and Khalil Shakir. Neither Moore nor Shakir seems to be the long-term solution in Buffalo, and while Bell may not possess the skills to be an alpha receiver in the NFL, there's still No. 2 receiver potential with legitimate top-36 fantasy receiver upside. Bell is an intriguing dynasty target in system that will allow him to catch passes from star quarterback Josh Allen.
