Jonathan Mingo Activated From Injured Reserve on Tuesday

Tuesday, October 21, 4:59 PM

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jonathan Mingo (knee) was officially activated from the Injured Reserve to the active 53-man roster on Tuesday, according to Patrik Walker of DallasCowboys.com. Mingo will be eligible to make his 2025 debut this Sunday on the road against the Denver Broncos in Week 8, and he'll be joining a crowded Dallas WR room that also includes CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Tolbert, and Ryan Flournoy. The 24-year-old will give the Cowboys even more depth at the position, but it's highly unlikely he's going to suddenly appear on the fantasy radar anytime soon. The former second-round pick by the Carolina Panthers in 2023 out of Ole Miss joined the Cowboys midway through last season and had only five receptions on 16 targets for 46 yards and no touchdowns in eight games (one start).

Brenen Thompson News

Brenen Thompson is Intriguing Dynasty League Stash

Wednesday, July 22, 5:27 PM

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Brenen Thompson might be able to carve out a consistent role for himself right away. The Chargers selected Thompson in the fourth-round of this year's draft. The Mississippi State product led the SEC in receiving yards and put on a show during the NFL Combine. Thompson could immediately push Tre' Harris for the third wideout role in this offense. Due to a lack of reps, Thompson will probably begin the season behind Harris, but it might not last too long. If Thompson proves himself, he could factor into the weekly gameplan in Los Angeles. He's not an ideal option in redraft formats, but Thompson is someone worth considering as a stash option in dynasty leagues.
