Jordan Whittington Competing for WR3 Role in 2026

Tuesday, July 21, 4:32 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington will be competing for the WR3 role in training camp this summer behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, according to Nate Atkins of The Athletic. Whittington was on the field more for the Rams in Year 2 in 2025, but his production dropped from his rookie campaign, as he caught just 18 of 25 targets for 171 yards and zero touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (six starts). The 25-year-old former sixth-rounder in 2024 out of the University of Texas had 22 catches for 293 yards and zero TDs in 15 games (three starts) as a rookie in 2024. Even if he wins the WR3 job this summer over the likes of Xavier Smith, Konata Mumpfield, CJ Daniels, and Tyler Scott, Whittington will be off the fantasy football radar in most single-year formats as long as both Nacua and Adams stay healthy.

Elijah Sarratt a Top Target for Dynasty Rebuilders

Thursday, July 23, 9:58 AM

Baltimore Ravens rookie wide receiver Elijah Sarratt was selected in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft after he recorded 65 catches for 860 yards and 15 touchdowns across 14 games in his final collegiate season at the University of Indiana. As a big-bodied ball-winner, Sarratt carries appeal as both a downfield and red-zone threat in the NFL. He may have trouble seeing the field in his first professional season, as he is likely behind Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, Devontez Walker, and fellow rookie Ja'Kobi Lane on the team's WR depth chart entering 2026. However, none of Baltimore's wideouts outside of Flowers has proven themselves to be consistent high-end producers. With a new coaching staff in place for the Ravens this season, Sarratt could emerge as a key piece of the team's plans by the end of this year. Dynasty managers who are building for the future should target Sarratt ahead of 2026.
