Jaylen Waddle Having Sensational Camp So Far

Friday, July 31, 7:12 PM

Denver Broncos' newly acquired wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has gotten off to a fantastic start to his first training camp in Denver. Waddle has made several explosive plays, including an insane one-handed catch in the end zone, and has earned praise from head coach Sean Payton. Payton said that he is a player who "walks on water" and that "there's a clear vision for him." The former Dolphins receiver has tallied over 50 yards per game in each of his five NFL seasons and may have found his best situation yet with Bo Nix and the Broncos. The former Top-10 pick is currently ranked WR22 and could easily outshine that mark in 2026.

Rashid Shaheed Preparing for Bigger Role

Wednesday, July 29, 5:21 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed is expected to have a larger role in the offense this upcoming season. He joined the team mid-season last year, finishing with 15 receptions during his nine games with the organization. After a full offseason and training camp with the Seahawks, Shaheed is expected to have an expanded role in 2026. He now has plenty of time to get more familiar with quarterback Sam Darnold and new offensive coordinator Brian Fleury. The Seahawks don't have many reliable targets outside of Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Fantasy managers can be hopeful that Shaheed steps up and becomes more of a WR2 for this offense next season.
