Jalen Hurts News
Friday, February 13, 3:27 PM
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has accomplished a lot in his NFL career to this point as both a real-life player and a fantasy QB. However, 2025 was a frustrating season in many respects. Across 16 games, the 27-year-old completed 64.8% of his pass attempts for 3,224 yards, 25 touchdowns, and six interceptions while averaging a career-low 7.1 yards per pass attempt. While Hurts still provided well-above-average production with his legs, his rushing production dipped in comparison to his career norms. After four straight seasons with at least 600 rushing yards and double-digit rushing touchdowns, Hurts totaled 421 yards and eight scores as a rusher in 2025. The Eagles will have a different play-caller in 2026, as the team brought in former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion in place of former offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo. While the coaching change could help Hurts, the Eagles may be looking to trade away star wide receiver A.J. Brown after Brown publicly voiced his displeasure with the team at points throughout 2025. Hurts remains a quality dual-threat fantasy quarterback, but his long-term dynasty stock may be fading if his rushing production is slowing down.

Jalen Nailor News
Monday, March 9, 4:31 PM
The Las Vegas Raiders agreed to terms with free-agent wide receiver Jalen Nailor on a three-year, $35 million deal that includes $23 million guaranteed, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Nailor had a bigger role the last two seasons for the Minnesota Vikings, combining for 57 catches on 95 targets for 858 yards and 10 touchdowns over 34 games (15 starts) the last two years. The 27-year-old won't be asked to be a top wideout in his new home, but he should at least be a top-three pass-catcher in Vegas, barring another big acquisition at the position in free agency. The former sixth-rounder's fantasy football arrow is definitely pointing up now that he should have a clearer path to consistent targets after being overshadowed by both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison in Minnesota. Nailor's connection with the expected No. 1 overall pick, Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, will go a long way in determining how big a role he'll have in his new digs. For now, he's an interesting sleeper at wideout to consider this fall.
