Jauan Jennings a Low-Priority Waiver Option Following Teammate's Injury

Monday, September 28, 9:12 AM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings has caught only one pass for one yard since joining the team on a one-year free agent deal, but with four-time All-Pro Justin Jefferson (ankle) potentially sidelined, he could be thrust into a larger role. Jefferson left Sunday's win over the Buccaneers, and while initial reports indicate his ankle injury doesn't appear overly serious, his status will need to be monitored leading up to a Week 4 matchup with the Dolphins. In Jefferson's absence, Jordan Addison led the team with 90 yards and a touchdown on five catches, and he becomes a priority add wherever available, but Jennings should also see more involvement if Jefferson suffers a setback or misses time.

DeMario Douglas' Role Remains Unsteady

Saturday, September 26, 6:12 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is off to a slow start to the 2026 season and even with the injury to A.J. Brown, Douglas remains third in line in production among Patriots receivers behind Mack Hollins and Romeo Doubs even though he has more targets than the pair of receivers (9 to 7). Douglas has caught six of his nine targets for 29 receiving yards which is good for 4.8 yards per reception. Douglas is involved in the underneath game but has not seen many aerial targets. He is being outperformed by the duo of Hollins and Doubs at the moment and with Brown eventually returning from injury he has little long term value. In Week 3 against the Jaguars , Douglas faces a solid defense that should limit his explosive plays and keep him to an underneath receiver. Look elsewhere for a fantasy starting option at wide receiver.
