Jakobi Meyers News
Wednesday, September 2, 5:52 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (hand) will practice Wednesday as he prepares for Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns. Meyers was seen wearing a brace on his right hand, which head coach Liam Coen described as "a jammed hand." With him practicing more than a week before Week 1, he should be good to go. After being traded from Las Vegas to the Jaguars last season, Meyers hauled in 42 of 61 targets for 483 yards and three touchdowns in nine games, averaging just under 10 half-PPR fantasy points per game. With the emergence of Parker Washington and the talented first-round receiver Brian Thomas Jr. still in the mix, Meyers faces a difficult path to high volume in 2026. However, if his ADP has declined significantly because of his injury, he's a good late-round value in fantasy drafts.

Adonai Mitchell News
Wednesday, September 2, 12:29 PM
New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell is entering his first full season in New York after being acquired by the Jets from the Indianapolis Colts at the 2025 trade deadline. While Mitchell struggled to carve out a regular role during his time in Indy, he averaged over seven targets per game with the Jets last season and finished the year with 24 catches for 301 yards and two touchdowns across eight contests. All of Mitchell's games with New York last season came with star Jets wideout Garrett Wilson sidelined by a knee injury, so the return of Wilson in 2026 could hurt Mitchell's target volume. New York also used two first-round picks in the 2026 draft on pass-catchers in wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. and tight end Kenyon Sadiq (hernia). Still, Mitchell drew rave reviews for his work in training camp and his chemistry with new Jets quarterback Geno Smith, and he appears set to open the year as the WR2 in New York. As a talented wide receiver with clear playing time opportunity, Mitchell profiles as a late-round sleeper target for fantasy managers.
