New Role Makes Jauan Jennings Difficult To Start In Week 1

Friday, September 11, 2:09 PM

Wide receiver Jauan Jennings' unknown volume should keep him in the background in most formats when he makes his Minnesota Vikings debut against the Green Bay Packers in Week 1. The veteran's fit with the Vikings is an interesting one. Jennings is coming off back-to-back solid fantasy years in which he was PPR WR24 and WR33, respectively, despite playing in the run-heavy system of the San Francisco 49ers. He's now in a Minnesota offense that has been very friendly to receivers, although he'll be sharing targets with All-Pro Justin Jefferson and another capable receiver in Jordan Addison. At the same time, the 6-foot-3 Jennings is an excellent complement to both Jefferson and Addison, and he gives Minnesota a dangerous third option, another red-zone weapon, and a dynamic run blocker. From a fantasy perspective, however, Jennings' secondary pass-catching role will be hard to rely upon from week to week. He starts the season as RotoBaller's WR68.

Tre Tucker Still Worth Adding After Quiet Opener

Monday, September 14, 11:24 AM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker had a quiet opener in Sunday's 27-13 win over Miami, catching two of four targets for 27 yards. He still tied for the most receiving yards among Raiders wideouts, but the four targets are the bigger takeaway. Brock Bowers was out with a knee injury, and Las Vegas still spread the passing work around rather than funneling it toward Tucker. That makes the Week 1 usage a little disappointing. It does not erase his role, though. Tucker started all 17 games last season and led the Raiders with 696 receiving yards while catching 57 passes and scoring five touchdowns. He also opened 2026 listed with the first team opposite Jalen Nailor. RotoBaller still has Tucker among its top 10 wide receiver pickups for Week 2, which fits the profile here. He is not a priority claim after four targets, especially if Bowers returns soon, but he remains worth adding in 12-team leagues as receiver depth ahead of Sunday's road game against the Chargers.
