Jordan Whittington News
Saturday, October 24, 6:16 AM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington could emerge as a plug-and-play option in deeper fantasy leagues if Puka Nacua (calf) is ruled out against Las Vegas on Sunday. Nacua is a game-time decision, while Davante Adams (hamstring) is on injured reserve, potentially opening additional snaps and targets for Whittington. However, Konata Mumpfield and Tutu Atwell will also compete for opportunities, and Los Angeles could lean more heavily on its tight ends and running backs. Currently ranked WR89 by RotoBaller for Week 7, Whittington carries considerable risk but could provide emergency flex value if Nacua sits.

Zavion Thomas News
Friday, September 18, 8:32 PM
Chicago Bears wide receiver Zavion Thomas drew plenty of hype heading into the 2026 season, but he has quickly found himself trending back downward. The rookie demonstrated speed and versatility in college, and he caught five passes for 140 yards and one touchdown in the NFL preseason. However, Week 1 came around and he didn't play a single offensive snap. Despite his impressive summer, Thomas is clearly buried on the depth chart behind Rome Odunze, Luther Burden III, Kalif Raymond, and Jahdae Walker. He's still worth stashing in dynasty fantasy football, especially because his rookie status makes him eligible for the taxi squad in most leagues. However, he can be avoided entirely in redraft leagues, because he's a long way from earning any sort of meaningful playing time or volume.
