Jauan Jennings News
Friday, July 10, 6:36 AM
After spending the first five seasons of his NFL career with the San Francisco 49ers, wide receiver Jauan Jennings is entering his first year with the Minnesota Vikings in 2026. Jennings emerged as a more prominent piece of the San Francisco passing game over the past two seasons, recording over 1,600 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns since the start of 2024. However, he now profiles as the clear WR3 in a Vikings offense that already features star wideouts Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. While Minnesota's passing game should be improved this season following the addition of quarterback Kyler Murray, the Vikings may still struggle to support fantasy-relevant production for three pass-catchers. Additionally, Jennings is entering his age-29 season and plays a physical style that has led to him playing through nagging injuries in recent years. In dynasty formats, Jennings profiles as a clear sell-high candidate ahead of 2026.

Ryan Flournoy News
Saturday, June 27, 7:00 AM
Dallas Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer singled out wide receiver Ryan Flournoy as a player who stood out during the team's offseason workouts during organized team activities and minicamp, according to Joseph Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News. "Ryan Flournoy, I really think is taking the next step," Schottenheimer said. "I think he has a chance to be a terrific receiver in this league." The 26-year-old former sixth-rounder in 2024 out of Southeast Missouri State is the unquestioned WR3 going into the 2026 season behind CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, and he has been given more of a leadership role this offseason as he heads into his third year in the NFL. Flournoy took a big step in his second season last year, catching 40 passes for 475 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games (four starts) after posting a 10-102-0 line in his rookie campaign. RotoBaller currently has Flournoy ranked at No. 63 at the WR position, but if anything were to happen to either Lamb or Pickens, he'd become a must-add off the waiver wire in Dallas' pass-happy offense.
