Jimmy Horn Jr. News
Monday, June 22, 5:49 AM
A sixth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. caught only 11 passes for 108 yards as a rookie, and could now be fighting for his roster spot heading into year two. At 5'8" and 170 pounds, Horn's role in his first season was largely limited to clear-out routes and a handful of catch-and-run gadget plays, but with the team drafting Chris Brazzell II in the third round of the NFL Draft and adding John Metchie III through free agency, those responsibilities could go elsewhere in 2026. Tetairoa McMillan and Jalen Coker are locked into the top two spots on the depth chart, while 2024 first-round pick Xavier Leggette offers big-bodied depth behind them, and with Horn making limited special teams contributions as a rookie, he could be hard-pressed to earn a roster spot as a sixth receiver. Even if he does stick around with Carolina or latch on with another team after training camp, Horn is not a player who needs to be considered for fantasy at RotoBaller's dynasty WR144.

Savion Williams News
Saturday, July 25, 9:10 AM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Savion Williams is a name that quarterback Jordan Love brought up as a player he expects to take a Year 2 jump, according to Jacob Westendorf of Sports Illustrated. Williams was used mostly for manufactured touches and in a gadget-type role in head coach Matt LaFleur's offense in 2025 after he was selected in the third round of the NFL draft out of TCU. The 24-year-old caught all 10 of his targets for 78 yards and a touchdown and carried the ball 11 times for 37 yards in 12 regular-season games last year as a rookie. Westendorf reminds us that the Packers are one injury away from having to rely on Williams as a primary contributor. Going into training camp this summer, he should be viewed as the WR4 behind Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and fellow second-year wideout Matthew Golden. Williams will have a bigger role in 2026 with both Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks now out of town. LaFleur likes getting the ball into Williams' hands, so he'll be a depth receiver to watch in Green Bay this summer and in the preseason.
