Jakobi Meyers News
Saturday, August 8, 7:54 AM
With Jacksonville Jaguars wide receivers Parker Washington and Brian Thomas Jr. standing out in training camp, veteran Jakobi Meyers could find himself the third option in the passing game. After being traded to the Jaguars from the Las Vegas Raiders last season, Meyers hauled in 42 of 61 passes for 483 yards and three touchdowns in nine games. However, toward the end of the season, Meyers struggled, totaling just 140 yards and no touchdowns in the team's last four games, while Washington dominated and Thomas was solid. With Washington labeled "the star of training camp" and Thomas "the best he's ever looked," Meyers could be phased out of the team's passing attack. Ranked WR38 on RotoBaller's positional rankings, Meyers seems like too high a draft capital to trust in 2026.

Adonai Mitchell News
Sunday, August 2, 6:13 AM
In his first full offseason with the New York Jets, wide receiver Adonai Mitchell was a spring standout during OTAs and minicamp, and he continues to build chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith through the early stages of training camp. Smith threw four touchdowns during Saturday's competitive portions of practice, with Mitchell on the receiving end of two of them, and head coach Aaron Glenn has taken notice. "That combination of those two guys is really starting to impress me," Glenn told reporters. "I want to see that continue to grow, because obviously [Garrett Wilson] is going to have a lot of attention. AD is going to have to win his one-on-one's which he has all the ability in the world to be able to do that." Mitchell is RotoBaller's WR69, but as the second option in an offense that could be on the rise, he has entered the late-round sleeper discussion and could find weekly viability out of the flex spot.
