Jalen Brooks News
Friday, August 14, 12:33 AM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Jalen Brooks led the team in targets, receptions, and yards in Thursday's preseason meeting with the Las Vegas Raiders. Brooks caught all six of his targets for 52 yards and one touchdown in the Cardinals' 27-14 victory. Brooks was Arizona's leading receiver in last week's Hall of Fame Game, as well. In that game, Brooks needed just three catches to record his team-high 99 receiving yards. Given how crowded the Cardinals' receiving room is, he will have to do all that he can to maintain a spot on the roster. A seventh-round pick in the 2023 draft, Brooks has only seen action in 27 regular-season games. With Marvin Harrison Jr., Michael Wilson, and Kendrick Bourne at the top of the depth chart, the chances of Brooks making an impact in fantasy are slim, but he is a name to watch as the preseason continues. Arizona's next matchup will be against the Dallas Cowboys on August 22.

Jordyn Tyson News
Sunday, August 30, 7:03 PM
The New Orleans Saints have officially placed wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) on injured reserve, according to Matthew Paras of The Times-Picayune. This move was merely procedural, as we already knew that Tyson would miss approximately two weeks due to a hamstring injury he suffered during training camp. It's been an injury-riddled couple of years for Tyson, who has now endured three different hamstring strains since the start of 2025. By landing on IR, the first-round pick will now be sidelined for at least four games. The earliest he could possibly return to action would be the Saints' Week 5 contest against the Minnesota Vikings on October 11, but we wouldn't be surprised if he needs a little more time beyond that date. With Tyson sidelined, Devaughn Vele is expected to step up as the Saints' No. 2 receiver alongside Chris Olave.
