Jaylen Waddle News
Thursday, June 4, 11:25 AM
Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton said there is a "crystal clear" vision for the role of new wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, who can play all over, according to Zac Stevens of DNVR Sports. Waddle had 1,000-yard seasons in his first three years in the NFL with the Miami Dolphins before falling back down to Earth a bit alongside a struggling Miami offense the last two seasons. The 27-year-old former sixth overall pick in 2021 out of the University of Alabama had a 64-910-6 line in 16 starts in 2025, though, and his fantasy stock is back on the rise after the Broncos gave up a first-round pick for him this offseason. Denver has plenty of options at the position in Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant, Marvin Mims Jr., and Troy Franklin, but because of his ability to play all over the field with a bright offensive mind in Payton designing plays for him, Waddle could easily lead the Broncos in targets and catches in his first year in the Mile High City in 2026. Fantasy managers will want to target the sixth-year receiver as a low-end WR2 with upside this fall as he finally gets out of the shadow of Tyreek Hill.

Garrett Wilson News
Sunday, May 31, 11:32 AM
After playing in 51 consecutive games to open his career, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) appeared in just seven games in 2025 due to a knee injury. As a result, the 25-year-old finished the year with 36 receptions for 359 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets. Wilson has been a highly productive player since entering the NFL in 2022, recording three straight seasons with at least 80 catches and 1,000 receiving yards before 2025. He's been consistently held back by questionable quarterback play in New York, which has limited his fantasy upside. While Wilson may face familiar problems in 2026, the presence of veteran quarterback Geno Smith in New York should at least bring some stability to a Jets passing game that was led by a combination of Justin Fields, Tyrod Taylor, and Brady Cook last season. Wilson also remains the obvious number one target in New York even after the team used first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft on wideout Omar Cooper Jr. and tight end Kenyon Sadiq. In dynasty formats, Wilson's injury may have created a buy-low window for managers to capitalize on leading into 2026.
