Jordan Watkins a Name to Look for on Waiver Wires as Next Man Up

Tuesday, September 29, 9:25 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jordan Watkins caught two passes in Sunday's win over the Cardinals, matching his total from his 2025 rookie season, and he could be thrust into a featured role in a Niners offense that continues to impress despite a growing list of injuries. Veteran Mike Evans (ribs) is considered day-to-day with the rib strain that knocked him out of Sunday's victory, allowing Watkins to turn his two receptions into 60 yards. Quarterback Brock Purdy is playing at an MVP level, and if Evans is unable to suit up against the Broncos, Watkins could feature heavily in two-receiver sets alongside Deebo Samuel Sr., making the 2025 fourth-round pick one of the week's top short-term adds.

Cardinals Select Texas Tech Receiver Reggie Virgil in the Fifth Round

Saturday, April 25, 10:22 AM

The Arizona Cardinals have selected Texas Tech wide receiver Reggie Virgil with the 143rd overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A transfer from Miami-Ohio, Virgil excelled during his first and only season at Texas Tech, catching 57 passes for 705 yards and six touchdowns. He also coverted his two rushing attempts into two rushing touchdowns. With good hands and route-running skills, Virgil has a chance to produce in a depth role as early as his rookie season. He'll presumably spend this summer competing for the No. 4 receiver role behind Michael Wilson, Marvin Harrison Jr., and Kendrick Bourne.
