Jordan Addison News
Saturday, August 29, 12:05 PM
Minnesota Vikings wideout Jordan Addison is currently being slept on in fantasy drafts with a valuable ADP outside of the top 40 receivers on most sites. The former Biletnikoff Award winner posted career lows across the board due to a three-game suspension and poor quarterback play last season. This year, Addison could get back on track and be fantasy-relevant again with Kyler Murray named the starter. Murray is a functional NFL quarterback who can keep an offense on schedule and, at times, raise the floor of the playmakers around him. Additionally, Addison and Murray have been working together all offseason to build chemistry and a connection on the field. If they can connect on the field, Addison can return to being a WR2 for managers like he was during his first two seasons in the league.

Ricky Pearsall News
Thursday, August 13, 8:52 AM
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) underwent season-ending surgery for his PCL injury to his right knee, according to David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard. In Pearsall's social-media post, the former first-rounder said he had never missed a game due to a football injury in his entire career at any level. The 49ers expect Pearsall to miss anywhere from six to 12 months, and he's already been ruled out for the entire 2025 season. The 25-year-old played in just 20 games (13 starts) in his first two years in the NFL due to injury, including only nine starts last year. He's recorded 67 catches on 99 targets for 928 yards and three touchdowns in his 20 regular-season games. It's unclear if Pearsall will be ready for the start of training camp and the regular season in 2027. Pearsall's redraft and dynasty/keeper value has hit rock bottom. In his absence in 2026, rookie second-round receiver De'Zhaun Stribling will have an opportunity to carve out a larger role alongside veterans Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel Sr., and Christian Kirk.
