Jahan Dotson News
Friday, July 3, 9:31 AM
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Jahan Dotson hasn't caught 50 passes in an NFL season, hasn't reached 20 receptions in either of the last two years, and has averaged just 380 receiving yards per season in his four years in the NFL with the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles after Washington took him 16th overall in the 2022 draft out of Penn State. He joined the Falcons this offseason on a two-year, $15 million deal, and while not much is expected of him, the 26-year-old pass-catcher has an opportunity in his new digs to become the WR2 behind Drake London. London is the only receiver on the roster who had more than seven catches in Atlanta in 2025. Dotson's rookie year in 2022 was his best, when he caught 35 of 61 targets for 523 yards and seven touchdowns in D.C. He's seen 31.5% of his career targets from the slot, but he may be asked to play more outside in Atlanta in new head coach Kevin Stefanski's offensive scheme. The speedy 5-foot-11, 184-pounder should be viewed as a deep sleeper in 2026 fantasy drafts, especially with the Falcons' quarterback situation unsettled going into training camp this summer.

Marvin Mims Jr. News
Wednesday, June 24, 9:10 AM
Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. acknowledged to DNVR Sports' Zac Stevens that the 2026 season could be his final year in Denver. "Sometimes I'm not in the most fortunate situations. Sometimes I am a little irritated with my situation, but at the end of the day, I'm blessed to be where I am today, standing right here where I am. I love Denver. I love the city, I love the fans, love the atmosphere, love my teammates, love my coaches. So, with this possibly being my last year, I'm just going to enjoy it to the fullest, going through it carefree and just play my hardest because we have a real chance to do something extremely special," Mims said. The 24-year-old former second-round pick (63rd overall) in 2023 out of the University of Oklahoma is entering the fourth and final year of his rookie deal in 2026, and the Broncos are projected to have just $11.7 million in salary cap space next year. Mims was a Pro Bowler on special teams in each of his first two years in the NFL, but after recording 503 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 17 regular-season games at wideout in Year 2, he took a step back in 2025 with a 37-322-1 line in 15 regular-season games. After the addition of pass-catcher Jaylen Waddle via trade this offseason, Mims' path to fantasy relevance got even more difficult. He should go undrafted in all 12-team fantasy leagues this fall.
