Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers requested a trade on Monday since he and the organization have been unable to reach a contract extension this summer. However, ESPN's Adam Schefter said on the The Pat McAfee Show that the Raiders are "not looking to deal him." "My understanding is the Raiders had one team reach out to trade for Jakobi Meyers but they wanted them to pick up some of his salary," Schefter added. The 28-year-old is owed $10.76 million in the last year of his current deal in 2025. It sounds like Meyers will be with Vegas for the Week 1 regular-season opener against the New England Patriots, where he'll operate as one of quarterback Geno Smith's top options. He had his first 1,000-yard season on a career-high 87 catches last year, but he scored only four times. Meyers is good, but not great, and is on the WR3/4 borderline in RotoBaller's rankings.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson finished with two receptions for 72 yards on four targets in a 17-14 preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The second-year pro did all of his damage in the contest's opening quarter. He ran past multiple defenders to secure a 42-yard deep ball from Mason Rudolph and later found space on a crossing route to gain 30 yards on a pass from Skylar Thompson. After a rookie season plagued by injuries, Wilson has shown promise heading into the 2025-2026 campaign. With teammate Calvin Austin III (abdomen) currently injured, Wilson has a clear path to earning the WR2 role behind D.K. Metcalf. The 24-year-old will look to build on this strong performance in Pittsburgh's final exhibition game against the Carolina Panthers.
