Jauan Jennings News
Tuesday, October 20, 12:08 PM
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings has had almost no impact on his team's offense so far in 2026, catching just two passes for nine yards on five targets in four games. The 29-year-old signed with Minnesota in free agency over the offseason, but he's been buried on the team's depth chart behind wideouts Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. For the time being, Jennings should not be on the radar of fantasy managers. However, there's been some recent buzz that the veteran wideout could be a trade candidate, specifically to his former team, the San Francisco 49ers. Jennings was a productive player for San Francisco in 2025, hauling in 55 receptions for 643 yards and nine touchdowns on 90 targets across 15 games. If Jennings is traded to the 49ers or another wide receiver-needy team, his fantasy value could skyrocket. In deeper leagues, Jennings could be worth stashing off the waiver wire ahead of the NFL's early November trade deadline.

Rashee Rice News
Wednesday, October 21, 9:12 AM
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver Rashee Rice (hamstring) will not practice on Wednesday, according to Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com. It is not the start to the week that fantasy managers were hoping for after Rice missed the Week 6 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, but Reid did say that Rice is making progress. Fantasy managers will want to keep a close eye on Rice's practice status through Friday as the team prepares for a Sunday night showdown against the Seattle Seahawks on the road. The 26-year-old has not played since suffering a hamstring injury in the first quarter of the Week 4 win against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders (the Chiefs had a bye in Week 5). Fellow wideout Xavier Worthy benefited from Rice's absence against the Chargers, catching all seven of his targets for a season-high 73 yards in the 22-6 win. Worthy and veteran tight end Travis Kelce would both have higher ceilings again this weekend in Seattle if Rice misses a second consecutive game.
