Joshua Palmer News
Sunday, August 9, 6:38 PM
Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer has been rising during the team's training camp this season. Palmer dealt with a number of injuries during the 2025 season, including a high ankle sprain and an MCL sprain. General Manager Brandon Beane said, "If [Palmer] stays healthy, I think he'll be able to help us." Palmer has made play after play in the past week's sessions, while Keon Coleman has struggled with drops. The WR3 role in Buffalo could be Palmer's, as he works behind newly acquired wideout D.J. Moore and slot receiver Khalil Shakir. There's a possibility that Palmer plays the second-most snaps in this receiver room, with Shakir mostly working in just three-receiver sets. Fantasy managers in deep leagues should keep an eye on Palmer in the later rounds.

Jordan Whittington News
Thursday, July 30, 11:44 AM
Cameron DaSilva of the Rams Wire writes that Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittington is the leader of the WR3 competition early in training camp because of how experienced and versatile he is. Whittington is competing with Xavier Smith, Konata Mumpfield, and rookie CJ Daniels, with DaSilva also noting that Daniels has made some noise in practice and is drawing attention from fans and coaches. The No. 3 WR spot in head coach Sean McVay's offense will be an important one, but it also isn't expected to come with a lot of weekly volume as long as the top two receivers, Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, are healthy. The 25-year-old Whittington took a slight step back in 2025 in his sophomore season, catching only 18 of 25 targets for 171 yards and zero touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. The former sixth-rounder in 2024 from the University of Texas has yet to find the end zone in 32 regular-season games (nine starts) and will remain off the fantasy radar in the majority of redraft leagues going into the start of the upcoming campaign.
