Joe Mixon News
Tuesday, March 24, 9:09 PM
Free-agent running back Joe Mixon (ankle, foot) remains unsigned deep into March. The Texans recently released Mixon after one of the most confusing seasons in recent memory. Mixon's timetable for returning from an undisclosed injury kept getting pushed back, and the team never provided any clarity on why he wasn't able to play. Ultimately, the veteran running back finished the season with zero snaps, making his 2025 season certainly one to forget. Being released is never ideal, but this could be a blessing in disguise for Mixon if he signs elsewhere and contributes in the backfield. After all, he's less than two years removed from an elite 2024 campaign in which he posted 1,325 scrimmage yards and 12 touchdowns. Even partially returning to that form would get Mixon back on the fantasy radar as an RB3/flex or higher. However, his fantasy outlook is somewhat meaningless as long as he's a free agent.

Marquise Brown News
Tuesday, March 17, 8:16 AM
The Philadelphia Eagles are signing former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown to a one-year deal worth up to $6.5 million on Tuesday, multiple sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Hollywood played in just two games in his first year with the Chiefs in 2024 due to an injury, but he rebounded last year to catch 49 passes on 74 targets for 587 yards and five touchdowns in 16 games (six starts). The 28-year-old pass-catcher has been on the decline since posting his only 1,000-yard season back in 2021 with the Baltimore Ravens. However, Brown could have a decent role in Philly behind DeVonta Smith if the Eagles trade A.J. Brown this offseason. Brown's 2026 fantasy football value will depend largely on whether Brown ends up in another uniform heading into next season. For his career, Brown has averaged 11.6 yards per catch and has 4,322 receiving yards and 33 touchdowns on 371 catches in his seven NFL seasons.
