Jalen Tolbert News
Tuesday, July 14, 10:58 AM
After spending the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys, wide receiver Jalen Tolbert is entering his first year with the Miami Dolphins in 2026. Tolbert saw minimal usage in Dallas last season, recording 18 catches for 203 yards and one touchdown on 34 targets across 13 games (eight starts). However, he was significantly better in 2024, hauling in 49 catches for 610 yards and seven scores on 79 targets across 17 games. In Miami, Tolbert will no longer be in the shadow of star Cowboys wideouts CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens. The Dolphins used 2026 draft picks on wide receivers Chris Bell (knee), Caleb Douglas, and Kevin Coleman Jr. Still, Tolbert may enter the year as the team's most reliable pass-catcher outside of running back De'Von Achane. Tolbert is unlikely to break out as a fantasy superstar, particularly given Miami's overall pass-game questions in quarterback Malik Willis' first season as the team's starter. However, Tolbert's current redraft ADP of WR98 makes him a worthy sleeper to target at the end of drafts.

Chris Brazzell II News
Wednesday, July 22, 9:23 AM
Anthony Rizzuti of Panthers Wire writes that Carolina Panthers rookie third-round wide receiver Chris Brazzell II will be competing with Xavier Legette for the WR3 role this summer in training camp behind second-year wideout Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker. Legette, a former first-rounder, is running out of chances to prove himself, so he could quickly fall out of favor if Brazzell impresses during camp. The University of Tennessee will bring more of a speed element to the Panthers' offense, which is something they've been missing, so that could help set him apart from Legette as he heads into his first NFL campaign. Brazzell impressed head coach Dave Canales while developing chemistry with QB Bryce Young during offseason workouts, but he'll need to keep it going when the pads go on in camp. In 2025 with the Volunteers, Brazzell was an All-SEC first-team selection after catching 62 passes for 1,017 yards and nine touchdowns in 12 games. He's just inside RotoBaller's top-100 WR rankings for 2026, but his ADP could skyrocket if he's named the WR3 before the start of the season.
