Jayden Reed News
Friday, June 26, 10:15 AM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed missed 10 games in 2025 due to collarbone and foot injuries, finishing the year with just 19 catches for 207 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets. Reed has been an efficient player when healthy in his career to date, recording over 1,900 scrimmage yards and 17 touchdowns across his first two seasons with the Packers in 2023 and 2024. However, he's struggled to see consistent target volume in the run-heavy Green Bay offense, averaging four targets per game since the start of 2024. That could change in 2026, as the Packers let wide receiver Romeo Doubs walk in free agency and traded wideout Dontayvion Wicks to the Philadelphia Eagles while signing Reed to a three-year extension this past offseason. Green Bay still has wide receivers Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, but Reed should play an important role as the team's primary slot receiver. Given the Packers' financial commitment to Reed, he could be a worthy buy-low target for dynasty managers entering 2026.

Denzel Boston News
Friday, June 26, 9:36 AM
Cleveland Browns rookie second-round wide receiver Denzel Boston "might have been the most impressive offensive player in the (Browns') spring sessions," according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The Browns still have Jerry Jeudy atop their WR depth chart, but Boston and fellow rookie KC Concepcion (24th overall pick in April) should make immediate impacts in new head coach Todd Monken's offense in 2026. Of course, the Browns' quarterback situation -- competition between Deshaun Watson and Shedeur Sanders -- isn't ideal, but the 6-foot-4, 209-pound Boston could see plenty of targets on the outside in his first year in the NFL. If Boston continues to impress the coaching staff during training camp this summer, he should at least be considered Cleveland's WR2 behind Jeudy, with a chance to overtake him later this year if Jeudy's struggles persist. In his final two collegiate seasons at the University of Washington, Boston hauled in 125 catches for 1,715 yards and 20 touchdowns in 25 games played. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 60 fantasy WR as he heads into his first year in the league.
