Ja'Lynn Polk's Rehab Going Well, Set for Beneficial Role in 2026

Wednesday, January 7, 12:55 PM

New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said that wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk's (shoulder) rehab has gone well and that he's fitting in with the group well, according to Erin Summers of NFL Network. Head coach Kellen Moore said that Polk will "be able to fill a very beneficial role here." The Saints acquired Polk and a seventh-round draft pick in 2028 from the New England Patriots back in September in exchange for a sixth-rounder in 2027. The 23-year-old former second-rounder missed all of the 2025 season due to a shoulder injury. Polk struggled in his rookie campaign in 2024, catching 12 passes for 87 yards and two touchdowns on 33 targets. He'll have another opportunity to make noise in 2026 behind Chris Olave, making him one to watch in training camp and the preseason in deeper fantasy leagues.

Lewis Bond News

Texans Select Lewis Bond with Pick No. 204

Saturday, April 25, 2:19 PM

The Houston Texans have selected Boston College wide receiver Lewis Bond with the 204th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Bond saw increased production across his five years with the Eagles, leading the team with 88 catches for 993 yards in 2025, though he found the end zone only once. Operating primarily out of the slot and winning with toughness and strong hands, his lack of size or elite traits may catch up to him as he makes the jump up to NFL competition. With Tank Dell and Jaylin Noel already working in a similar space for the Texans, Bond could struggle to find the field and is unlikely to make any fantasy impact early in his career.
